Humble Bundle Full Of Adventures

The Humble Weekly Bundle is an adventure bundle this week.  Pay whatever you like for Detective Grimoire, Broken Sword 1 & 2, and The Whispered World Special Edition.  If you pay more than the average, you'll also get The Detail: Episode 1, A Golden Wake, and Cognition: Game of the Year Edition.  If you pay $10 or more, you'll also get Broken Sword 5.

There's also a Star Wars bundle going on. There are 9 Star Wars games if you pay $12 or more, and the site says that there's more yet to be announced.

A Golden Wake Is Out Now

A Golden Wake, the first commercial adventure game by Grundislav Games, the creators of the popular freeware Ben Jordan: Paranormal Investigator adventure series, is now available for PC, Linux, and Mac for $14.99.  The game follows a real estate salesman who hopes to strike it rich in Florida during the roaring 20's.  It is based on actual events, and features real life locations and historical figures.

There is also a demo available at the game's website for all three platforms if you'd prefer to try before you buy.

A Golden Wake Pre-Orders Are Now Open

A Golden Wake, the first commercial adventure game by Grundislav Games, the developer of the eight case episodic adventure game Ben Jordan: Paranormal Investigator, will be released by publisher Wadjet Eye Games on October 9, 2014 for PC, Mac, and Linux. If you pay $14.99 to pre-order from the Wadjet Eye Games store before then, you'll also receive a free copy of the game's soundtrack and a Steam code which you can redeem upon release.

The Ben Jordan games were among my favorite freeware adventure game releases, so it should be interesting to see what Grundislav has come up with for their first commercial release.

Wadjet Eye Will Publish A Golden Wake This Fall

Wadjet Eye Games has issued a press release that it will publish the first commercial adventure game by Grundislav Games (the creator of the popular free adventure game series Ben Jordan: Paranormal Investigator) this Fall.

A Golden Wake is a nostalgic adventure that spans two dramatic decades in American history. Set in the era of Gatsby with a plot that includes real people, locations, and events, A Golden Wake has story- and puzzle-driven gameplay, retro-styled pixel art, and a point-and-click interface reminiscent of classics like King’s Quest and Monkey Island. Alfie’s power of persuasion will play a unique role as he analyzes other characters’ attitudes and weaknesses to figure out the best way to approach them.

A Golden Wake will be released this Fall via digital download for PC.
