Experience the Travels of Marco Polo - a historical Point & click Adventure for the whole family!

Genoa, 1298. Author Rustichello da Pisa shared his cell with a Venetian captain who spoke of a thousand and one fabulous lands. As a writer, Rustichello could not remain indifferent to the snippets of fabulous stories told by his new friend. He managed to convince him to tell his life story. And that is how Marco Polo, back from 25 years of traveling, began recounting his adventures. From his Genoa prison, the Venetian explorer remembers his travels: Venice, Acre, Jerusalem, Armenia, the Himalayas, all the way to the palace of great Kublai Khan.

Based on what I am reading, this is more of an adventure game than it is an IHOG, but because apparently there are some hidden object scenes, I called it an IHOG.

Hopefully someone here will play the demo and can provide us with a better idea of the HOG/adventure ratio.

Thanks, Marian! smile


I change all my passwords to "incorrect". So whenever I forget, it says, "your password is incorrect".

I played the demo. You can't skip cut scenes, and the cursor was slow and stuttered. I didn't play any further.
