Sherlock
Holmes is back on PC with his most ambitious title yet: 'The Awakened'.
An investigation will lead the most famous detective of all time to the
edge of the irrational as he thwarts the designs of a sect of the
disciples of Cthulhu. This new adventure of Sherlock Holmes rises to
the challenge of being entirely in 3D, while the creators have retained
the traditional adventure game 'point & click' mechanic, in which
the game is played solely with the mouse. The use of full 3D allows for
an immersive experience, with changing game rhythm and additional
enigmas and puzzles using physics and light.
Based on an
exciting scenario, 'The Awakened' plunges the player into the heart of
a mysterious and oppressive adventure. Sherlock Holmes, assisted by the
loyal Doctor Watson, investigates strange disappearances which seem
related to the activity of a secret sect which worships the god Cthulhu.
Discover the adventures of Sherlock Holmes with a gripping atmosphere,
for the first time ever delivered in a thoroughly intensive and wholly
immersive real-time 3D world. Throughout your investigation you will
meet more than sixty characters with whom you can interact freely.
Hundreds of clues and objects will need to be scrutinised and utilised
in order for the investigation to be solved. From the most logical
deduction down to the smallest detail, the decor and textures offer the
player a true feeling of living the role. Cities and places exude
authenticity, creating environments you would expect to find at the end
of the 19th Century. And yet, amidst the daily grind and bustling lives
of society, there also exists terrifying places, and it is in these
confines where you will have to control your fears, retain your focus,
and ascertain the truth.
Sherlock Holmes - The Awakened offers rewarding gameplay, a true
symbiosis of two technologies specific to adventure games: WARP (used
in the first Myst or Amerzone) which allows first-person movement in
pre-calculated decors; and 3D surroundings, which allows the character
to be controlled and to become a spectator of the adventure, thus
offering a large freedom of movement. The advantage of mixing these two
game modes provides a greater diversity of scenario, interaction with
more people and a high factor of realism. You will also be challenged
by puzzles in 3D, linked to physics for example, in which the weight of
objects can be used to trigger mechanisms, and others using dynamic
light, where a torch might be used to light, in real time, certain
places in order to reveal clues or other secrets and passageways.
Sherlock Holmes - The Awakened follows, to the letter, the style and
character of Sherlock Holmes. The game understands that it is without a
doubt the method Holmes applies in his investigations that have made
him so famous. Everyone remembers Sherlock Holmes ferreting about here
and there, magnifying glass in hand, on the hunt for the smallest clue,
and the game remains faithful to this image since the players must,
throughout their investigation, gather information and evidence.
Furthermore, it is also his sense of observation, his deduction and his
logic that make Sherlock Holmes popular, and in this new adventure, the
player will often be called on in these 3 areas to progress the
investigation.
- Join Sherlock Holmes in the most terrifying adventure of his career.
- An original confrontation between the universe of Sherlock Holmes
and the myth of Cthulhu, for a battle between the rational and the
supernatural.
- Sumptuous graphics, biting dialogues, disturbing characters and an
excellent soundtrack make for a startling adventure at the edge of
reality.
- Use of the latest real-time 3D technologies for total immersion in a gripping ambience.
- Become, in turn, the famous detective Sherlock Holmes and his loyal friend Doctor Watson.
- Interact with more than 60 characters in 5 disconcerting universes.
- Use and combine more than 50 objects, uncover hundreds of clues and documents to carry the investigation to its ultimate end.
