PixelBoy: ...
Sherlock Holmes: Secret of the Silver Earring ...
Panaias: Great game but it is actually played in 3rd person :) After your post I found out that GOG has wrongly tagged it as "FPP" in the game card. I'll probably contact support to let them know.
Hah, how about that!
Actually I wasn't sure about the title, so I randomly checked the game card, and that FPP convinced me that it was the game I was thinking about. Apparently it wasn't.
It's on Sherlock Holmes trilogy collection DVD-ROM, and out of three games in that collection, it's the only one that is third person, other two are first person. So the games I was trying to remember are:
Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened
The Mystery of the Mummy PixelBoy: Demetrios - The BIG Cynical Adventure http://www.demetriosgame.com/ (rejected by GOG)
Panaias: Looks fun! Out of curiosity, is the game (or developer) somehow related to Greece? The name sure is. Also, do you know why was it rejected by GOG? As far as I can see there are nice ratings in general and the game was also released on multiple platforms (win, mac, linux, ps4, switch, xboxone, ios, android - well every platform available).
I believe the developer is French, but I can be wrong about this...
About GOG:
" Here's their message :
"We’ve taken a look at your title, it seems like an engaging game with some cool features.
Unfortunately, however, we feel that it would not be a good fit for GOG. Right now we are fully focused on releasing titles that are going to be a perfect match for our users.
I am afraid that your title does not match our criteria, so we need to pass on it." "
