To find out more about Belief & Betrayal visit the official site HERE, and new screenshots of the game are available HERE

Enjoy!

Thanks Carla! The game will visit Venice, your hometown. (I've always wanted to visit Venice.)

Polishing the voiceovers -- sounds intriguing.

Sounds quite funny for me to know that I was born and I live in "exotic locations"

Sounds great Carla! Thanks for the update

Excellent news Carla thank you so much! I'm looking forward to this game.

Looks like another good one lol

Thanks Carla..I've had this on pre-order forever. Looking forward to it!

Ana

Thanks for the update Carla..I had this pre-ordered also and I'm really looking forward to playing this one. It's worth the wait when the delay is to polish up the game.

Carla

More games are always exciting

Thank you,Carla for all your hard work checking out the games for us. This will give me something to look forward to playing this Spring.

Marie

Looking forward to visiting those locales! Carla, thanks you exotic gal you!

Thanks for the news Carla, & good to know it will be on disc! The story sounds intriguing & Venice is a place I've always wanted to visit so looking forward to a virtual one for the time being.

Thanks so much, Carla.....I can't wait for this one!!!

I was looking forward to this one until I read some comments from gamers playing the non-English versions.

It sounds like the developers have heard some of the comments floating around and making the game better for the N.A. release. I hope so! I'll still buy it when it gets here.

Thanks carla...

What do you mean by strong action/adventure

I love the screenshots...

Darleen, you missed an important word • Strong action/adventure storyline creates a compelling gameplay experience. They are referring to the story. It is a point and click adventure game.

Ana

Hmm, if the storyline has action elements in it, then they will be in the gameplay too, I would think. See the last line in the specs that mentions *keyboard* along with mouse and speakers.
I read the comments link that misa posted and the comparisons to Undercover: Operation Wintersun tell me all I need to know for now.

There are no action/arcade puzzles in the game that I played.

Thanks ,Ana & MaG

Goody !!!! Another for my spring list

I love this game. Seems like it was developed by the ones that dveloped 'operation winterson' that was a good game too.

Hugh -- different developers, same publisher. Did you enjoy Crime Stories/Martin Mystere?

I couldn't get it when I tried months ago. I'll order it now. Completely forgot about it. thanx Becky

This british guy who first calls Jo in his apartment sounds like the one who 'voice acted' for main character from operation winterson.

EDIT:
I completed 'belief and betrayal. Just wanted to ask what was the What if u didn't. Hope my cats don't read this.

Hi Hugh,

I'm not sure if your question will spoil the game or not but just in case - I placed in in spoiler tags.

To answer:

Just off to clickety click on the order button at Interact ! This game sounds great, thanks.

I assume that the game is "Malediction of Judas".
I almost finished the game and was somewhat disappointed by it.
Many of the puzzles were too easy, the graphics are not up to date with today's standards and really don't match what Lighthouse is advertising.
The story is nothing we haven't seen yet, very very few intercation with NPC's.
Some of the Italian locations were nicely rendered but many of the up close zone search were really not nice to look at.
The dialogues were very short, some wre filled with good humor and jokes. I found object interaction very frustrating. Objects that can't be used would have the character go on a ramble about why they can't use it. Instead of saying "I can't use it", it would go on for too long and this would repeat with every object.
Some of the puzzles were easy although the interface made them complicated. Some of the things that you had in mind were right, but the trigger in the game would not happen until you had looked or done another prior action.
The music is ok, although very repetitive. Dubbing in French was well done and the game ran bug free.

My overall impression would place it at a 5/10 or 6/10.

Hi Belgar -- thanks for the mini-review!

Becky ... I thought I would post my comments as what I read from Lighthouse is really not what I got with the game.
The game trully came short on delivering.
I think I saw Reprobates in store at Bestbuy but under a different name? can anyone confirm this?
The screenshots on the box look similar to my box in French.

Belgar -- the North American version of Reprobates is called Next Life.

ohhhh yea. you are right mag.
