Everybody it he takes interest in games from back on a day knows biggest name in adventurous peas. Set Sierra, games from Lucasarts, and some straight knows Hugovu trilogy, but who keep in mind Avvy set from Thorsoft? They weren't as large back on a day, but that doesn't mean cannot compete with them.

First in set, is Avaricius, that accomplish back in good old a.D. 79. You play to how denarius Avaricius sixth, man whose only aim in life was cumulate so green power how he could. He live in Pompeiovi, together with his bother wives, Arkata. Now... what's Pompei most famous for? Directly. It be exactly aim in those play. After short introduction in play, where you encountering such people how Gedalodava, Crapulus, Taxidermus taxman and your arch - enemy lupus, you will have to escape town before, than it covered lava.

Avaricius- ův graphic art didn't have to be totality digital art, but they serves their purpose. Sometimes, that even assisting humour in play. Cannot help but laugh when they will introduce sexy siren Gedalodava in her full 16- barevné pixelblob glory of. So have they arrange good sensation earliest graphic adventurous plaies, so together, they no subtraction anything from games.

Play alone can be controlled by both cursors and mouse. Even answering to yes/no questions can be done with mouse. Beside instructions, play also features several keyboard abbreviations: F1 for help, F2 for sound, F3 recall last line, Esc to opened menu and F10 retire from the game. Play has parser behind give orders, just like in old Sierra peas, but if you right - click, you open out menu and can choose necessary instructions in this way, so necessarily you do not have to use keyboard if you refuse.

Strongest part games is his sense of humour. It is not only in names or in pun with them (Gedalodava and woman Avvy' sleep around with, Adultera, quickly will be promoted over in view, as well as tale Taxidermus taxman get stuffed), but in of the chief posture signs and even crib - biting (needless)registration (yes, this play is shareware, but it be full of play) and all feeling you get that the manufacturers those games simply had quantity merry entertainment doing that. No as though much plaies in reality knows, how lead over as though merry making, but this is such play.

Have you play to everything Sierra games? Did you get tired of reproduction everything Lucasarts plaies? Are you looking for something, what combines best of both? Then look no further and get starting on Avaricius.
