Amusing and original adventure, in Italian and in English.
A young reporter during a journalistic scoop will discover an ancient curse..

This is a light and amusing adventure, the atmosphere not serious but pleasant and nice (I believe that all the AG should be so)...
It isn't a fan-game (the history and characters are new ) but in the game there are small homages for the adventures that have made to dream in this years.

Difficult pixel hunts and a sometimes confusing translation hold back what is otherwise a fun game.

I'm sorry for the confusing translation... I'm the translator, and I definitely understand (now) that one should translate from another language to his own rather than the contrary (as in this game, since I'm Italian, and I made the English version). Anyway we had the translation checked by a native English AGSer, and he told it was almost ok, and corrected what was wrong... so it's strange you find it confusing.

Some minor bugs, sometimes a pixelhunt and a bit strange way of spelling.
But (for me) definitely fun to play.
Download and check it out i'd say...
Good job Tequila144!
