Explore modern day San Francisco to uncover an ancient treasure hidden there years ago by following clues in "treasure hunt" fashion. Anyone who has never visited this city will feel he (or she) has actually been there after playing this point-and-click adventure game. The game begins, ala Myst, in a surreal graphic of a fog enshrouded Golden Gate Bridge. After several more credit screens, an audio/video starts with Jake, who seems to be sort of a narrator. After his presentation/suggestions, you are left to your own devices as to what to do. Your main navigational tool is a cursor you can place anywhere on the screen. Moving it to the left or right edge of the screen moves your orientation 90 degrees in that direction once you click on the left button of your mouse. To move forward, place the cursor in the middle of the screen and click. The screen redraws itself quickly to your new view. Objects can be picked up, doors opened, etc. with the same cursor being placed on the objects and clicked. Fairly intuitive. The graphics, although not “stunning,” are top-notch. There are numerous videoclips throughout the game. | ||
