The demo for developer Deja Vu Worlds' upcoming PC first person title Alida, can now be had from Got Game Entertainmet's site. Alternate download mirrors are at Gamer's Hell.

"This intricate first person 3D graphical adventure game created by Australian game developer, musician, and artist Cos Russo is set on Alida, an abandoned island theme park ten miles out at sea. Originally built and inhabited by a wildly successful rock band, the island is actually a gigantic guitar, replete with wondrous and ornate graphics, unique and bizarre locations.

When the band split up, Alida was abandoned. But, now, several years later, the band’s manager suggests a reunion on Alida. Soon thereafter band member Arin leaves for the island and is not heard from again. Players must search the island for the missing musician and bring him home.

Featuring clever and thought-provoking puzzles, atmospheric ambient effects, and an entrancing original music score, in their search for Arin, players will soon find themselves lost in 'Alida'."

Alida was originally released for Mac in Australia last year. For more on this title (including the trailer) please visit the publisher site.
