Viva Media and bitComposer have signed a North American publishing deal, making them partners in crime and co-conspirators for the release of the much anticipated horror adventure, Alter Ego. Lock up your doors; no adventure gamer is safe!

Quote:
Alter Ego takes virtual gamers to the town of Plymouth in the South of England as the 19th century draws to a close. A series of gruesome murders shakes both the town and the entire region after a strange aristocrat dies who was the subject of many horrifying myths in his lifetime. Players can discover and investigate the various scenes as they alternate between two totally different heroes, the thief Timothy Moor and Police Detective Bristol, to slowly reveal a dark secret.

Key Features

· Original dark point & click adventure
· Developed by some of the makers of Black Mirror
· Exciting detective story with a horror plot
· Top notch cinematic cut scenes
· 2 playable characters
· 30 NPC characters
· 80 game locations
· 150 items to collect and combine


Alter Ego will be released on August 1st, 2010 in North America, no news about an UK release yet.

Four new screenshots have been added in our Gallery.
