Maelstrom Obscura:  Case 1

Maelstrom Obscura is an intriguing adventure game delving into the misty world of conspiracies, myths and legends. Talk to theorists, debunkers, locals, witnesses, agencies and the military. Gather information and discover for yourself if some conspiracies, myths or legends are true or false, or what you believe them to be.

Case 1: The Legend of the Loch Ness monster ... (Updated 8th September 2019)

Can you conclude the Legend behind the Loch Ness monster... Is the Legend true or an elaborate hoax?

Will it be DRM-free?   *hopes*   

Please say it will be DRM-free.  :smiley:

Don't force people to use steam.

I'm loving the backgrounds for this game, especially the Loch Inn. Great job with the art overall!

Wiggy

What's not to like here? Great artwork, interesting themes and storyline, great voice acting and bug-free scripting. Sure there are some spelling errors, but I quite enjoyed the game and earnestly look forward to the complete series. I wish the team well with Kickstarter, because to not develop this series would be a travesty.

Proofreading will happen, so we should be getting any spelling errors corrected.

Thanks for the kind words. Everyone who has been working on the game appreciates it.

Great write up from Jack Allin of Adventure Gamers....

We are now creating Kickstarter rewards posters...

You could even make a crowdfunding pledge of as little as £5 on the Kickstarter website when our campaign is published. You will also be given rewards for your help which include posters and your name mentioned in the game plus in the credits.

Hi Slasher,

This game doesn't work on Linux (using WINE).
I had a similar issue recently with [Birdy Birdy: https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/forums/index.php?topic=57380.0
I've tried all settings combinations in winsetup.exe but no luck.

Maybe it's an issue in AGS 3.5.x.x ?
Would you be able to compile a Linux version ?

Thanks
