New York, NY / August 3rd, 2010 – Viva Media is excited to announce the release of its newest adventure game, Alter Ego. Using gorgeous graphics and a compelling storyline, the game pushes adventure and mystery into new depths where right and wrong isn’t so clearly defined.

The year is 1894 and the recent grave robbing of a local aristocrat has sent the town into hysteria, inspiring a long string of subsequent murders. The desecration comes at a high cost given the significance of the enshrined Sir William “The White Beast” Lewis. His wretched past, stained by rumors of murder and debauchery, has tattooed itself onto the living memory of Plymouth and has caused many to speculate a supernatural explanation, suggesting Sir William, himself, has risen from the grave and killed those connected to his legacy.

You’ll play as both Inspector Briscol and pickpocket Timothy Moor, two men who couldn’t be more dissimilar: one is a man of law and justice and the other is a man who can slip into back alleyways, brothels, and lowly pubs, and yet they’re united by their common interest in solving the crime of the century. Let’s just hope they find the murderer before murder finds them!
