Got Game Entertainment announces bar-raising adventure game has shipped to stores in the U.S. and Canada

Quote:
Already receiving critical raves for its gameplay, look, and sound, Nikopol: Secrets of the Immortals (PC) is now arriving on retail shelves across North America. An immersive, richly detailed suspense-adventure game based on the stories and art of famed graphic novelist and filmmaker Enki Bilal, Nikopol: Secrets of the Immortals, is a dramatic and thrilling 3D adventure set in a futuristic Paris. Developed under Bilal's discerning eye by White Birds Productions, the studio founded by adventure game legend Benoît Sokal, the game deftly melds gorgeous graphics with thought-provoking puzzles.

Who watches and waits from high above this City of Light and what dark secrets lie buried beneath its fabled streets? In Nikopol: Secrets of the Immortals, it is Paris 2023 and you are Alcide Nikopol, a struggling artist, devoted son, and political savior. The city is now a maze of mysteries, secrets, and clues that must be explored. When you learn your missing father may be alive, a possible pawn in a looming political battle between a power hungry dictator and the Immortals, you find yourself in a suspenseful adventure to find your father and thwart a dangerous conspiracy. As you search for answers from your humble artist’s apartment to grand palace corridors, through labyrinthine metro passages and fortified military towers, you become entangled in political intrigue and caught between two worlds, one of anarchy and one of Immortality.

I started playing the demo and was thoroughly enjoying it until I came to the bit where you die if you don't act quickly. I CAN'T act quickly and inevitably panic and the brain freezes, and I die, and I die, and I die etc. Are there many similar situation like that?

cris, I haven't played yet, but I heard it is an awesome game. Perhaps a saved game to get you through that part would be a good way to go. I despise timed areas also.

cris,

There are several instances to act quickly but if you follow the walkthrough and just do it one step at a time - you can do it since the time allowed is very forgiving.

cris, I really dislike timed sequences but this game keeps giving you chances to re-do and MaG's walkthrough can bring you through easily(thank you Mag). I loved it. I installed this game monday and finished it today. I couldn't stop playing it. smile

I went back to it after your advice and managed to lock the sluggy thing out, but I see the lighter and joss sticks but they are not active. I really want a new game but maybe this isn't for me.

MaG Just received my DVD copy of nikopol from Amazon and it was completly sealed.When I opened the game there was just the disc in there and no manual. If I use the beginning of your walkthrough will it give me enough info to play the game and do all the necessary moves to play with out the manual. Thanks, Bill. PS Or how can I get a manual

Install the game. There is a pdf manual in the Nikopol folder.
You can also use the gameplay part of the walkthrough grin

I've been hearing about this game for a while now, does anyone know if I can purchase this online? I can't seem to find it on any sites.

Edit: Oh actually, I meant an online store where I could pay to download the games to my computer, like 'theadventureshop'.
