Empire Rising

Moebius, a contemporary metaphysical adventure from the master storyteller Jane Jensen, the creator of Gabriel Knight and Grey Matter, is available for Windows and Mac OS X on GOG.com for $29.99.

When a secretive government agency enlists Malachi Rector to determine whether a murdered woman in Venice resembles any particular historical figure, he is left with nothing but questions. Why would the U.S. government hire him--a dealer of high-end antiques--to look into a foreign murder? Why does David Walker, a former Special Forces operative he meets in his travels, feel like someone Malachi’s known all his life? And how come everytime Malachi lets his guard down, someone tries to kill him?

Moebius is a contemporary adventure that merges classic point-and-click puzzle solving with Jane Jensen’s sophisticated storytelling. Travel the world using Malachi’s unique deductive powers to analyze suspects, make historical connections, and uncover the truth behind a theory of space and time the government will defend at any cost. This thrilling new adventure game from master storyteller Jane Jensen (Gabriel Knight, Gray Matter) and Phoenix Online Studios (Cognition, The Silver Lining) introduces Malachi Rector, an expert in antiquities whose photographic memory and eye for detail transform people and clues into interactive puzzles. The game comes with the original soundtrack both in high-quality MP3 and FLAC format.

If you miss the times when adventure games were played mostly for the great and immersive storytelling, not just for the puzzles, humor, and views, be sure to get Moebius for $29.99 on GOG.com.
Still waiting for my kickstarter reward code. Seems like I might have missed something...

NOPE nope nope I found it. Had it for some time now if I half assed myself into reading mails more often.

Excellent game, really enjoying it. Currently in Chapter 6, 9 hours played so far. Great story, characters, and environments.

Yes, the animations are a little funky, but the graphics are fantastic otherwise. Noticed it for 10 minutes when first playing, haven't thought about it since. I'm really loving the analysis parts. Yes, it's possible to brute force your way through several dozen combos. But if you're smart and observant, you can get it first time. It's not just arbitrary guesswork like someone said above. I've done the majority of them on the first attempt, and when I don't, I get a real feeling of failure on my part. I assume it's reflected in the scoring, but don't know that for sure yet.

Well, it's just a couple of bullet points, not really something that I would "publish" outside of a forum discussion. I would need to expand it, but it's probably too long already for GOG, the system only accepts very short contributions. Also, the only time I tried to put a review on GOG, it got eaten by the system and vanished (though the system did register that I had sent one, and did not allow me to write another review for the same game, even though not even GOG's technicians could find my review in the system).
Seeing the RPS review makes me feel like boycotting the site entirely. But sadly I still go there to read headlines on news.

Psyringe: Well, ...
Yeah, GOG did that to me once together with a notice it is too long :). It is just kind of review I prefer as a potential buyer, balanced and to the point. So it would be a nice addition there.

I think the review is quite helpful as is, you might consider linking the thread post in the review section with a note about why you're doing that, i.e. it's too long.
