to all USA-ers

I hope so, Marian, thank you !! 🤞

I am just over an hour in and if you like classic style 2D animated point and click adventures, you will likely be well pleased.

You play Murphy McCallan, auditor cum treasure hunter, newly arrived at Devil's Rock, a small island off the coast of Louisiana in 1933. That the taxi drops you off short of the town of Deadnettle and won't go any closer is probably not a good sign.

This is a colourful third person story driven piece of lavish animation. It looks good, sounds good and you can save at will. Puzzling so far has been inventory based, and not at all obtuse. Scenes can slide left and right, hints are available, and a map enables fast travel around the island. Double click to run, inventory ribbon appears top of screen in response to the mouse, hotspots indicate what you can do there.

Jolly hockeysticks so far.

Thanks for the information KatieB!

You are correct, adv4ever, but it is not a setting I did. It apparently defaulted to that. I don't go in and check my settings very often. I don't seem to have other websites being a problem and saying "not secure". I'll change it though to be safe. Thank you!

I'll continue as I was, copy and paste to a word doc. I can see the pictures then.

Thanks Marian!

We're really hummingbirds in disguise

Until now, I have never disagreed with one of Flotsam's review. Sadly. I have also never been as disappointed in a game as I am with "Syberia Remastered." The visuals were generally stunning, Nothing else was improved much from the original. The voice acting was, indeed, impressive, but that too was true of the original. This new game ran a bit awkwardly on my computer, so that was contributed to the list of irritations. I really was impressed by and enjoyed the remastered "Amerzone," and was, therefore, really looking forward to this game. Now, I doubt that I'll bother to finish it.

Good morning manXman ... excellent finish

It's time to start a new thread. You will find it HERE

Thanks, Marian!
