Click here for two new trailers showing the gameplay from Enter the Story. The trailers include scenes from both Les Miserables (released last December) and The Divine Comedy (Inferno through Paradiso, to be released in August 2009).

Thanks Becky!

Thank you Becky

Interesting. Was Les Miserable already released? Has anyone played it or the demo for this one and what kind of things does one have to do in the game? How is the game play? Does it have lots of puzzles (tasks to be accomplished)?

BL, there is a review by Becky here and you can search for the previous threads and find some other opinions.

Thanks Ana. I must have been aware of Les Mis. release recently and decided not to commit to this series of games yet. Sounds like a "deep subject" to explore - will look into it soon if I think I will want to spend long periods of time with it. I wonder if it would help if I had read Les Miserable or any of Hugo's other books? Maybe I should look into that too.

Betty Lou -- you don't need to read Les Miserables in order to enjoy the game -- all the important events are clearly described/explored in the game itself.

If you want a relatively quick introduction to the Les Mis story, you might want to check out one of the movie adaptations.

Thanks Becky, we may just do that since we missed the latest one at the theatres and I have not ever read the book but know the story is about the French Revolution, that is all I know about it. The game/s sound very deep and thought provoking but interesting. Might just give it/them a try.

Are these games subtitled? Sometimes I couldn't understand the narrator in the video.

Yes, they're subtitled. In fact, there are no voiced dialogs.
