Finished my re-play of Discworld Noir and am now on day two of Tex : Tesla Effect. And wow !! What wonderful stuff happydance

Tex may be a little older ( who isn't ?? wink ) but he's as charismatic as ever and I'm having to tear myself away from this game - just as I did with the previous ones - and once away can't wait to get back !!

I'm SO hoping that this is only the first in a new run of Tex Murphy cases yes

I just started my first play-through of the game yesterday, and I'm loving every minute of it. It seems like a miracle that the game exists. I'm going to take my time and hope that it lasts a good long while. I'm glad you are loving it too.

And with seven possible endings, I'm thinking a replay will be in order, as well. dance

Mad, as usual, I'm late getting here, but I am also hoping this is just a new beginning! I also would love to have an Overseer novel. I still love reading, and reread all the available Tex novels, now including Tesla Effect. I'm redoing Tesla, too.

In case you didn't know, there is a fan made re-make of Overseer called "The Poisoned Pawn" going on right now and you can read about it HERE here at the Big Finish web site.

Yes, this is more than a mere fan project. It is a fully fledged release intended for the gaming market to build upon the exposure to Tex Murphy as achieved in Tesla Effect.

Thanks for mentioning this! This looks fantastic, and I wasn't aware of it.

I purchased Tex the telsa effect but the game download was so huge I never bothered to even to even attempt it.
and the other game I think it was under the killing moon well it was the scenes in were all pixel just bad
so this will be my last Tex game ever.

I only played completely a Tex game for the 1st time last year - The Pandora Directive & now realise what I've been missing. I did play The Tesla Effect after that & hope there will be more games too as I'm now truly a Tex fan & will when I have time get on with the Killing Moon! smile

When Tesla was released I loved being back in Tex Murphy's world but couldn't get past 'lasers puzzle' and couldn't get a save game so never got any further. Pity because 2 of my cats Tex and Chelsee kept wondering why they heard their names and who was talking to them!

I can give you a saved game after the laser puzzle.

I'm replaying Under a Killing Moon as we speak. Yes, it's pixilated, but the game is so good that it's worth it anyway. Played Tesla and was spoiled by its great clear videos. I missed Tex so am starting the games again.

Off to replay Pandora Directive. THAT one has some scary spots!
Changed my mind. Overseer. I'm always confused about this, but what order do the Tex games come in? Is Overseer after Killing Moon?
