The Adventure Company Announces Sentinel (24-Jun-2004)

The Adventure Company has announced that it will be publishing Sentinel: Descendants in Time, the next game from Detalion, developers of the Mysterious Journey games. This next adventure is scheduled for worldwide release this November.

Here is the description that TAC has provided for the newest game. The combination of alien worlds and "challenging puzzles" makes this newest title sound similar in spirit to the MJ games.

The Adventure Company today announced that it will publish Sentinel: Descendants in Time for Windows.

The Tastan people surrendered to extinction many years ago; their only legacy being the legendary Tastan Tombs. Much speculation surrounds the tombs; some say they hold invaluable treasure, while others believe great wealth may be attained through the technology left behind by this advanced race.

As Beni, players enter the Caverns on a dangerous quest for riches. Along his strange journey, he encounters a sentinel charged with guarding the tombs. This sentinel, a holograph programmed with advanced A.I., awakens only when the tombs are disturbed. She appears to Beni throughout his quest, sometimes with a benign purpose, but other times with calculated intentions. Beni will soon realize that the sentinel is much more than she appears to be. Her dark purpose threatens his very existence.

Players will explore eight brilliantly inspired and diverse 3D worlds drenched in rich color. The game offers a non-linear style of gameplay and more than 20 challenging puzzles of varied difficulty.
