This title is a mystery adventure with supernatural overtones looking to be directly inspired by the work of H.P. Lovecraft. In the complex story, you play the role of Gus MacPherson, a former private investigator with New York's Pinkerton Detective Agency, who has left under shady circumstances to go to become an artist on the famous Left Bank in Paris in the 1920s. Suddenly a stunning young American woman named Sophia Blake comes by and wants you to investigate a murder that has just occurred at the swank Parisian Hotel Orphee - there has been a bloody decapitation of her sister's and brother-in-law, and it is completely unclear why. Everything is not what it seems, as you later find out that she is not telling the whole truth. Your skills as an artist are essential to solving the crime; the touch of clairvoyance that causes you to have visions and nightmares seems less crucial, but certainly adds to the mysterious and mystical atmosphere of the game. The French developers incorporate numerous surprising plot twists and turns to keep you on the edge of your seat throughout this adventure. The story is spooky and visuals are atmospheric. | ||
