From the makers of A Vampyre Story comes this colorful pirate adventure. There are three protagonists in the game: Papa Doc, a "vooju" (essentially, voodoo + bad juju = vooju) priest; Jane Starling, a comely female pirate; and Blue Belly, the bashful ship's cook. The story begins when Papa Doc's ex-wife, a powerful vooju priestess, levels a curse down on our heroes, separating their spirits from their bodies. Now they must work together to recover their remains and figure out a way to re-inhabit them. At any time, each of the three characters will be working individually on a task, and the player will be able to switch back and forth between them. As ghosts, they possess the ability to communicate with one another over long distances, so if Blue Belly finds an inventory item he can't figure out what to do with, he can instantly ask Papa Doc or Jane for advice. But you're invisible and inaudible, so forget asking living creatures for help or information, and if somebody doesn't want you snooping around, they need only lay out a border of salt and you won't be able to cross it. Additionally, ghosts can only manipulate small, light objects. Instead of going on a fetch quest to get someone to help you, instead you'll need to slyly manipulate the environment to entice that person to want to help you—though they don't even know you exist. |
