Intriguing Point & Click Adventure Game Featuring Murder, Deceit & Corruption!

Quote:
Pescara, Italy, March 10th 2014: Indie developers ‘Adventure Productions’ and ‘10th Art Studio’ are proud to announce the impending release of ‘Shadows On The Vatican - Act 2: Wrath’, the 2nd of 4 episodes in a popular adventure series of games for the PC. Tentatively scheduled for worldwide release on the PC on March 21st 2014, the original game and its new successor are already in preorder on the Zodiac digital online store (www.zodiac-store.com) and will be soon available in several other digital outlets.

Inspired by real events in recent Italian history, the Vatican series is a thrilling point-and-click adventure series freely adapted by the bestselling novel ‘In God’s Name’, by esteemed author David Yallop. With 10 stunningly beautiful HD locations to explore (art directed by Lorenzo Ruggiero, of Marvel & DC Comics fame), and well integrated challenging puzzles, the game takes its players on an immersive adventure full of mystery and intrigue.

In the first installment of the game, ‘Shadows On The Vatican - Act 1: Greed’, ex-priest James Murphy answers a mysterious call for help from his friend Cristoforo while visiting Rome from Chicago. 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.

In the 2nd and brand new instalment shortly to be released, ‘Shadows On The Vatican - Act 2: Wrath’, Silvia is hunted by the person behind the attempted murder she was assigned to commit, she knows the only option remaining is to face the deadly conspirator openly. In the heart of the local underworld, Silvia will discover a game of power in which everyone is an expendable pawn. A forced alliance with her ex-target seems to be the only way to avoid the inevitable, but if they want to dispel the secretive mists of the Vatican, James and Silvia will have to come to terms with their limitations...

Did someone got the game to run from Zodiac?

Or maybe the servers are too busy?

Have you downloaded the game and then installed it? The installation took time.

Hello MaG.

Yes, the game is downloaded and installed.

When I click JOUER (Play), I get the game settings that I click OK and nothing more.

I checked mine to see -
Do you have the game you want to play highlighted on Zodiac left frame?
I have mine on "disconnect" at top right. I don't know if that makes a difference.

MaG, at the same I was curious to see if someone was playing the game from Zodiac, I sent a help message and got a fast response: if you clicked on HD (or Normal) when asked, choose normal. Just uninstall the game on the same page we download and install the game at Zodiac and reinstall.

I just did that and the game is OK.

Thanks MaG

Great! I selected HD because my screen resolution is quite high - 1920x1020.

Have fun. I played only up to - entering the bar. I will catch up on life first.

Well, Mag. I bought this game from Zodiac, and it's playing well. I chose "NORMAL" for my screen resolution. "A funny thing happened on my way to the game". LOL On the config screen, if I choose "Aspect Ratio", the game plays fine. If I choose "Use desktop Resolution", I get a BLACK screen and some audio. Very strange. I'll just leave it on the "ASPECT RATIO" setting.

Hi Sany,

I am held to a standstill. I have been experiencing glitches on the game.
I cannot save or get to main menu at the Beauty Farm.
And now during a replay to take picture of a puzzle - I lost the inventory bar whenever I try to take the map of Rome. So I cannot continue until I find where Silvia is kept.
I am at a standstill. I think I will rest. lol

I also have glitches with the save and load games.

Had to back track in the game to make another save.

Well, Mag, I KNOW you will get past those "glitches" eventually. Meanwhile "give it a rest". You have MY "permission" to take the rest of the day OFF. LOL Thank you for your efforts.
Sandy

CHIEF, I purchased this game from ZODIAC, and I have had no problems, whatsoever. Sounds to me like you are trying to play the FRENCH version. Of course, the only difference between the two versions might only be the language differences.
