The Adventure Company Ships Murder in the Abbey



Quote:
The Adventure Company, a leading worldwide publisher of interactive entertainment software, today announced Murder in the Abbey for Windows® has shipped to retail stores in North America. The title will sell for a suggested retail price of $19.99 USD.

“Murder in the Abbey is a fresh approach for adventure gamers,” said Brian Gladman, Product Manager at The Adventure Company. “The game offers a remarkable reproduction of a medieval abbey, with stunning architecture and works of art. Players will have 60 locations to explore in a unique cinematic presentation which combines 2D and 3D graphics.”



Storyline:

Quote:
Monks, murder, and above all, suspense…

An old abbey is the scene of a series of mysterious murders, and only one man can put a stop to the slaughter. Former Grand Inquisitor Leonardo and his assistant Bruno are sent by the Vatican to the isolated abbey to investigate the strange goings-on surrounding a carefully guarded secret. Yet hardly have they arrived when their quest is overshadowed by an attempt on their lives…

Murder in the Abbey is a mystery of cinematic proportions whose suspense goes far beyond that of a conventional adventure game!


For further information please visit the game's webpage and website.

Best Buy's web page has it on pre-order with a release date of this Friday. I hope they get it in stores then. I have a coupon for 10% off which is only good Aug 29-Sept 1. Its not good on web page orders, so I can't order it with in store pick up (like did Art of Murder).

It reminds me the 'Name Of The Rose'. Two monks visiting a monastery where strange things happen not to mention the murders! Glad that such a game is going to be released.

Best Buy disappointed me. They didn't have today. By the time I get off work Saturday and Sunday they'll be closed. I'll check again Monday. If they don't have Murder in the Abbey, I can always use the coupon on Guild Wars.
