There is a new interview with the developers and cofounders of BluMiAl Studios on Adventure Classic Gaming about their game Aurora: The Secret Within:

http://www.adventureclassicgaming.com/index.php/site/interviews/394/

As I recall, Aurora was already released in Europe last year by Lexicon. From what I read, it seems they are talking about the North American release of the game. The interview is not clear on this.

Anyone knows the difference in this new release?

Nope, but hopefully they fixed the bugs.


Quantity has a quality all of its own

Flotsam, can you elaborate on what you mean? I am thinking of buying this game (regardless new or original version).

Is there a patch?

David, if you put in a search in Glitches, HInts and Discussionsa for "Aurora" you will get lists of complaints of folks that never got the game to run. It was full of bugs. I believe they fixed it so that some could get it running but not all.

I have been watching for this game for a while now.
Is it released and if so where can I buy it?

The release in NA was cancelled by the publisher. There is no news on another publisher as of yet. I believe it is available for download though on Gamersgate.

Thanks Ana
I guess I will have to do that. I just don't like downloaded games as I want a nice labled disk with a box.
In Gamespot I saw a picture of the box and everything by tri syenergy. What happened?

I do not know the reason behind it Jalex but they did say they would not be publishing it after all. You may try the trading post forum here. I have seen a few for trade before from the release in Greece.

Hi Jalex, there are two (DVD) boxed versions up for auction on Ebay.co.uk (english) - they both look genuine, both sellers have 100% good rating & it looks like both will ship to the US. You might like to have a look but please be warned that they may end up being quite pricey & also be missing a .dll file that you will have to download from an independant site. smile

Jalex -- you're right, Gamersgate appears to have removed it from their catalog of games. It was there up until a couple of weeks ago.

I managed to trade a copy from a Gameboomer here last year. At the time there was some discussion with MaG about it being a pirate version, so I was not happy to trade it on, even if it did look authentic.
Originally, I had ordered and paid for the game from Lexicon UK. I never received the game or a refund from this company. None of the links on their website, email,phones etc., worked.
The game was the worse indie game that I have ever come across and was glad to bin it and as far as buying anything from Lexicon UK in the future, well.....what do you think?
