We get contracted by a secret government agency to see if a murder woman in Venice resembles anyone from history. It’s a classic point-and-click adventure in modern styling.
”After two years in development, I’m excited to bring Moebius: Empire Rising to market,” said Jane Jensen, at Pinkerton Road. Her last adventure was 2010’s Gray Matter.
“I’ve worked closely with Phoenix throughout development, and I know they love this game as much as I do. I’m pleased to have them handling the publishing end so I can focus on writing and designing more games.” Phoenix Online Publishing is to whom she refers, and they’re the ones bringing Moebius: Empire Rising to PC and Mac April 15th.
Moebius was successfully funded through Kickstarter in 2012, offering regular development updates and early access builds to backers. “Working with Jane, one of gaming’s most accomplished storytellers, has been an incredible experience from the perspective of both a fan and partner,” said Cesar Bittar, CEO of Phoenix Online Studios.
