I was checking out Gamer's Gate (a very nice selection of adventures that you can download there) and noticed that you can download a new horror-themed adventure there, Aurora: The Secret Within.As far as I know, this is the only way currently to purchase this game. EDIT: There is a confirmed glitch in this downloaded version. There's more discussion near the end of this thread.

That's interesting! Maybe progress then, and the CD will come out in the future.

I downloaded the demo some time ago but never could get it to work. I'm wondering now if the full game will work on my pc? I'll follow this thread to see if others have problems before I buy it.
Kjos: are you using Vista? If so, there is a patch available to enable the game to run under it.

I do not understand jody ....why are you upset at a site that immediately took care of you and refunded your money? Many sites don't care if it does not run on your computer and would not refund your money so I would think you would be thrilled. Ana

I also got my money refunded. couldn't get it to run also. Sure would have liked to play this game. I downloaded the demo a while ago and couldn't get it to run. Don't remember where I got it. Richard

Haven't played the game and so I don't know about any technical stuff but just to answer a question posed earlier in the thread: As far as I know, the original Aurora was Italian; a German version was released last year, with the Italian descriptions for the items left in. Also, from what I've heard from others and read online, the German version didn't have any voice acting. However, Reviews weren't all that bad because the game seems to have a good story and good puzzles.
Shiny.
