Adventure Gamers, some new AGS games that may interest you (unless you dislike retro point & click adventures, of course )

AVAILABLE NOW AS “PAY WHAT YOU WANT” UNTIL 11TH NOVEMBER !!

They’re ready! 5 new games from AGS developers are available from Screen 7. It’s our first product, our first commercial venture - and the aim is to help the developers earn from their work, not us. Show your support for their creative skills and buy the batch. We’ll also make sure a worthy charity gets a donation if we reach certain targets.

Please remember you’ll need DirectX 9 to play, Windows XP, Vista or 7, and a stable internet connection to get the download that’s roughly 280mb. It requires about 1.8gb HD space to install the games.

Volume 1 has five games inside:

BARELY FLOATING
A traditional point & click adventure by Stemshock Interactive (led by AJA). Playing time is about 2 to 3 hours.

Somewhere along the east coast of Africa, pirates have attacked a luxury yacht! They have taken a few seemingly wealthy passengers as their hostages, a family and an old man, hoping to collect a hefty ransom for each of them. When the hostage negotiations go awry, the rescue duties land on the weak shoulders of an unlikely hero. Little does he know that the ship’s crew, that stands in his way, is composed of some very weird and silly individuals.

JAILBREAK
A top down stealthy action ‘escape the prison’ game by Virtual Illusion (led by Rocco). Playing time is about 1 hour.

Jailbreak is an action game - an intrigue has brought you to prison, so your goal is to escape and find the evil who brought you in this mess.

NANCY THE HAPPY WHORE
A low-res traditional point & click by Technocrat Games (led by Technocrat). Playing time is about 1 to 2 hours.

Nancy, the titular sex-worker with an unshakeably optimistic attitude, runs out of fuel on her way to the Big City. With the help of her best friend & crack-fiend Susie, she must not only procure the petroleum for her car, but help defeat an armed robbery, a disillusioned amateur hippy and THE PROPHETS themselves to help uncover the evil lurking within - the PERFIDIOUS PETROL STATION!

PATCHWORK
A traditional point & click adventure with high-res hand-drawn art by Ivan Ulyanov (Ilyich). Playing time is about 1 to 2 hours.

After a teleportation experiment goes wrong, a young scientist finds himself, and a good part of his laboratory, in someone else’s house. In a parallel universe.

PISS
Another low res traditional point & click game by Ben Chandler (Ben304). Playing time is about 2-3 hours.

Moira may have forgotten everything else, but she’s not about to forget this. The debt will be collected, even if it kills her… There are, however, those who remember that which she does not, and they’re about to remind her.
