Finally the list of Games Coming out under the
Encore Banner:
Dracula 3: The Path of the Dragon
Produced by Microids Devloped by Kheops Studio
This game is based in the Bram Stroker's universe and takes players on a "suspenseful quest" through Europe to discover the reality of Vampires. Let's hope Father Arno Moriani, the main character, has the verzion network so he can get txt messages from the pope to guide him to Dracula.
Sinking Island
Game by Benoit Sokal Produced by Microids and White Birds Productions Developed and Designed by White Birds Productions
A muli-billionare is murdered and the player, that's you, must travel to a tropical island to solve the case. To help along with the journey there will be a friendly talking boat. Just kidding. However the game is a little bit more hardcore detective like only giving the player three days (real time?) to solve the case with 10 possible suspects.
Nostradamus: the Last Prophecy
Produced by Microids, Elektrogames,and more! just read the press release for the whole list
Apparently this is the "first and only game to feature Nostradamus AND his prophecies". I guess people were starting to wonder if they were one and the same since they never appeared in the same place together before. Anyway. This Mystery Adventure happens in France in 1566, wait 1566 its in France and not during WW II, score! The Queen is deadly sick and Nostradamus is the only one who can cure her. That sounds like fun but it turns out the players play as Nossey's dauter instead and go on Mystery Adventure. Oh well.
Still Life 2
Still Life 2 is the second chapter in the Still Life story. Victoria McPherson, FBI investigator, has been following the case of the East Coast Killer, an elusive serial murderer who has taken several lives in the East Coast of the United States. Players must stop the East Coast Killer before he murders
Paloma, and continues his rampant killing spree.
