Finally we'll meet again Rosangela and her spirit guide Joey Mallone soon!

Quote:
A new film opens to rave reviews, despite its bloody history. A beautiful uptown office remains unoccupied, despite its prime location. A downtown artist berates himself for selling out, while a Wall Street investor congratulates himself on a job well done. Just normal life in the big city? Or is something more sinister binding these events together?

Bizarre connections are a dime a dozen for the Blackwell family, but just how far back to they go? Medium Rosangela Blackwell and her spirit guide Joey Mallone are about to find out.




EDIT: Blackwell Convergence has released and is now available for purchase at the link below.


The game is available for pre-order on the official site HERE, where you will find also a small gameplay video.
As a gift for pre-ordering, all customers will receive a $5 coupon for anything in the store!

While you are on the HOME PAGE , have a look at the new project, Puzzle Bots:
Quote:
Puzzle Bots chronicles the adventures of Hero, a bright-eyed little robot who is too curious for his own good.


Thank you Dave!

Yep, like kjos, I pre-ordered Blackwell Convergence yesterday as I want to be sure there is a copy left for me.
I also checked out Hero and the Puzzle Bots which looked interesting enough, but will wait to learn more about it.


To love is to be happy with!

The Blackwell games are great. I love the humor (and I don't always love the humor in games).
The upcoming game with the little robot looks promising too.

There will also be a CD version, the option just doesn't appear on the pre-order page.

Hi everyone! Sorry for teh confusion regarding the CD. There *will* be a CD option, but the option doesn't come up on the store until the game is actually available. It's a quirk of the Plimus store and there doesn't seem to be a way to fix it. Once the game is out and available, you can go back and upgrade to the CD.

And... sigh. I always hate bearing this news but I have to delay the game by a few days. Check out the web site for details.

It's Official!

Blackwell Convergence has now released, with the Wadjet Eye Games store open for orders. The game is available as a download or on CD (the CD version has an extra charge for the shipping, etc.).

I bought the game, played it and had a splendid time. The only objection I have is that it is a bit short so I was sad when it suddenly was over. Blackwell Convergence and the special edition of Monkey Island are the adventuredelights of this summer in my opinion.

Bought it, haven't played it yet. My pile of unplayed games just keeps growing.

Wow, that was quick (for a review).

Dave is doing some great work and is among the few indie developers who have been successfully in adventure games.

Because I cleared it within 2 days, and wish to write short review about that fast.

Dave Gilbert = Cool & I believe every game done by him is worthy.

So I wrote very brief things, not explaining many things. smile
