I remember buying this game some time ago. It was a boxed game, and I threw it out along with my other boxed games. I thought of "Amerzone" many times as being one of my favorites. I'm delighted to see it again and I'm definitely buying it. I was never disappointed in any Sokal games. Thank you, BFG. Teddo

chrissie, don't buy it. I checked the forums and this really is only a part of the game and a very short one, at that. I think it's just the beginning segment in the lighthouse.
Take newgames suggestion and get it on GOG.

It's a classic adventure that in the GameBoomers Hall of Fame. That's great that it's available on Big Fish, and Windows 7 is one of the supported OSes!  It is great that it's on Big Fish. What is not so great is that if they are releasing it one chapter at a time as someone on the BF forum suggests and that there are 6 chapters in the game then that means it will cost in total <consults fingers> the princely sum of £46.20 or, to give you an idea in dollars - $68.69 which is way beyond what it cost originally. No woots for me I'm afraid:-)

Check the forums, cazziejoe. One person mentions finishing it in 45 minutes. However, if you're not sure, post there and ask if it's the whole game. I don't think so.

I bought Amerzone as a download from the MacGameStore last month. It had never been available for Macs as a hard copy, and I'm really looking forward to playing it. Several other Keops games are also available for Intel Macs now.

I think I'll just stick to my PS1 version for now.
