Under the shadow of St. Peter, an American ex-priest investigates a series of events that exposes a deeper, more complex web of political and religious intrigue than he ever could have imagined.
Adventure Productions, the most important Italian publisher of adventure games, and 10th Art Studio, an Italian indie developer, proudly announce that the first act of Shadows on the Vatican, entitled 'Greed', is now available for purchase on Zodiac (www.zodiac-store.com), for $ 7.49.
Shadows on the Vatican is a thrilling new point-and-click adventure in 4 acts, inspired by real events in recent Italian history and freely adapted from the bestseller of David Yallop "In God's Name".


Act 1: Greed – Story
Visiting Rome from Chicago, where he works as a doctor, ex-priest James Murphy answers a mysterious call for help from his friend Cristoforo.
The disappearance of a briefcase containing compromising documents is enough to convince James that his friend is a victim of something shady and sinister. The Vatican's involvement and some strange parallels with his own traumatic past inspire James to get to the bottom of this mystery.
Along this dangerous and disturbing path, James finds the most unlikely travelling companion who will question his deepest beliefs. And so the two characters begin both a physical journey in search of the truth, and a metaphysical exploration of the inner soul and the darkest secrets that everyone hides, even a "champion of the faith" like James.
Rome is the stage for this adventure – a city bathed in eternal twilight, its skies tinted the color of blood spilled in more than thirty years of intrigue: blood of innocents and guilty, unknown and famous victims alike.

Hi to all,

if you need any help or want any info on the game or the store, I'll be here to help!

Thanks!

Thanks but I did keep on letting it download - wish I hadn't though!! When it finished about 3 hours later there was a message saying that the download had failed.

Well, O.K., I thought, I'll turn off the computer etc. and try again later - which I did (try I mean). This time I couldn't find the game probably because I cannot log into the Zodiac icon, it shows up but when I login all I get is either "login failed" or just nothing happens at all. I've deleted Zodiac altogether 2 or 3 times and downloaded it again, but still it won't work. I have emailed their Support people but no reply as yet. - What a mess the whole thing has been!
