This adventure game is coming from veteran designer Jane Jensen
I’ve remarked before about how the adventure game genre didn’t necessarily need an injection of life but it’s no surprise that Kickstarter definitely attracted big names to return to the genre. Moebius is the return to the adventure game genre from Jane Jensen, creator of the Gabriel Knight series. Today we’ve got a new look at the game in the story trailer above and some new screenshots.
Moebius will tell the story of Malachi Rector (great adventure game name there) and his investigation into a murdered Italian woman. However, nothing is as it seems and Rector’s talent of reading objects and understanding their value is put to the test. Whilst the animation and graphics don’t exactly look cutting edge, it’s the puzzles and story that will be what hook players. We’ll know for sure in early 2014 when the game is released on PC, Mac, and Linux with an iPad and Android version to follow shortly after.
