Name That Game 14!
Here we go again. If anyone gets this one I’ll be very surprised.
And if you guess this game because you actually played it, I pity you. Really. I had to play it at Origin because I had to provide hints for it (so there’s a clue for you). Otherwise I’d have never touched it.
So have fun kids!
EDIT: I am so glad nobody got this game (except Ryan, who got it by Googling). The game was Noctropolis, an absolutely terrible graphic adventure released by EA. Noctropolis was supposed to be an “adult” game and it achieved that by being as juvenile as it possibly could. Blood? Yes! Boobs? Yes! Incomprehensible puzzles combined with pixel hunting? Yes!
So I’m going to call Ryan the winner here, but the truth is that by not playing this game, you’re all winners. Go you!

I totally found it by Googling.
That might be considered cheating, so I will avoid posting a spoiler.
Grah! It’s surprisingly difficult to find screenshots of games that do not have any English words on them at all. But I thought this one would be tougher. Ah, well.
I didn’t realize what game it was by the screenshot…. but I actually completed that game and thought it was okay… but then, it has been nearly a decade since I played so perhaps my memory is playing a trick on me…
I think it’s a great game. I really like Gabriel Knight too. Both make me fell the pleasure of being a semi-dark hero.
This was a big favorite of mine.
But then, I was 14 when I played it, so the “adult” aspect appealed very strongly to me (juvenile.)
