Daily deal

is it good? I think I've heard of it before..but the description..

8 challenging mini-games in 4 thrilling chapters
sounds like a demo more than a game.

I do like the idea of real history though! even if it's..ya know...fiction

Looks a bit like Syberia. Syberia was alright. Haven't completed Syberia just yet though... and I do enjoy some adventure games from time to time(Although I find I really need to be in the mood for them and muster up the patience). Anyone played this that could give a bit of input?

This game isn't like Syberia. It has a good story, that is easy if we think it's based in a real person (Mata Hari), but like an adventure game isn't good. There aren't puzzles in fact, is more like a visual novel. You talk and talk and talk but you have not to resolve difficult situations like a normal graphical adventure (Syberia, Money Island, The Next Big Thing, etc..).

I played this game some years ago and really, is not worth in my opinion.

Regards.

Thanks for the input Sheen. Sounds like the description (which worried me).

You're welcome. If you want to try a very good graphical adventure, try Ceville. Very funny and entertainment game. Right now the game is cheaper than ever.

Regards.

The game is done by Hal Barwood and Noah Falstein who did Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, which sounds awesome, but all the reviews I have read on the game didn't sound so good. Haven't played it myself, so I can't really comment on the quality.

Sheen, thank you for recommending Ceville. In all honesty I'm glad you posted this as it's a better game, and it's cheaper (only $3.39 US) than the current daily deal too! I was looking for a game to quench my adventure need and I was tempted to buy Mata Hari - Thank god I read the forums!
