The crown-funded point and click adventure Demetrios that we previewed several months ago is finally making its way to the PS Vita next month through the PSN Store. The game is a quirky point and click adventure game inspired by classics like Broken Sword, packed with tons of humour with a character who is somewhat more cynical that your typical game protagonist…
Bjorn Thonen, a slob of an antique dealer living in Paris, is robbed one night after coming home drunk. Forced to conduct his own investigation with the help of his neighbor Sandra, he ends up involved in a murky, mysterious affair. Will these unlikely heroes be able to rise up and discover ancient secrets?
The game offers situations and puzzles for beginners and experts alike, with a high degree of interactivity. Explore ridiculous item combinations, just to see what happens!
Demetrios features hand-painted visuals and animated characters in first person view, similar to visual novels. You might encounter a little pinch of Discworld (some of the humor), Gabriel Knight (comic cutscenes, characters heads/dialogs), Phoenix Wright(first person view investigation)…
