City of Newton, 2087. Genetic engineering is the norm, the addictive Trance has replaced almost any need for human interaction, and an omnipresent AI named Central powers the city. CEL agents Charlie Regis and Max Lao are investigating a serial Mindjacker who is tapping into the neural wiring of seemingly ordinary citizens, stealing their knowledge and leaving them dead. An agoraphobic net addict named Latha Sesame might be the next target. But when Charlie's past comes back to haunt him, he and his partner find themselves on opposite sides of the law, with Latha’s fate in the crossfire. -- Reviews (Windows version) -- PC Gamer - "An old school point-and-click adventure with a captivating story, strong characters, and a rich, well-realised sci-fi setting." 80% Rock, Paper, Shotgun - "Set in a semi-dystopian future, the game features multiple protagonists exploring a tale of genetic engineering, AI overseers, mysterious mind-hacking murders, and overlapping online and offline worlds. It is, in that sense, delightfully pulp sci-fi. But it's also a delicate story of individuals, personal struggles, and most of all, a nuanced approach to complex future-worries." Adventure Gamers - "Technobabylon is a beautiful, compelling game that fans of the cyberpunk genre will devour" 4/5 GameSpot - "When the going gets tough, the tough sometimes take a fishing pole and start fishing in a bloody Jacuzzi stuffed with a mutilated body. That's, at least, the lesson you learn in Technobabylon, a point-and-click adventure that's set in 2087 in a city where a powerful AI controls and observes all." 8/10

“Scott Whiskers in: the search for Mr. Fumbleclaw” is a modern, funny and family-friendly point & click adventure game about cats, Star Trek and life itself. Created in the spirit of the classics of the genre. Classics like Monkey Island, Broken Sword or Zak McKracken. Visit many colorful, crazy, forbidden, dangerous, scary and other totally boring locations. Meet crazy characters and solve tricky puzzles. Will you find Mr. Fumbleclaw and bring the story to a beastly conclusion? It's up to you! ** A game about our four-legged furry friends ** "Scott Whiskers in: the Search for Mr. Fumbleclaw" is a game about cats and lots of other furry friends. Furry friends like Buddy the faithful German shepherd with a rather unhealthy fixation on fine-grained cat litter. Or furry friends like Steve the rat. Steve is not to be trifled with - after all, he provides security at the sales stall of the dodgy, yet likeable crook Bob. Or furry friends like the nameless, extremely dangerous - and certainly absolutely deadly - Chihuahua that guards the Longbottom family estate. It is up to you to survive this encounter safely. And last but not least, we have Mr. Fumbleclaw himself, the award-winning, perennial champion of the legendary cat beauty contest "Ricky's Finest", who has inexplicably disappeared from the face of the earth. Your task? Find the cat - save the day! ** A game about people ** "Scott Whiskers in: the Search for Mr. Fumbleclaw" is a game about people. People like Mary, the lonely soul, Scott's boss and caring director of the city's animal shelter. Help Mary find the great love - and bad boy - of her dreams! People like little Susie, Lord Longbottom's daughter. Susie is probably a little crazy and hell-bent on making an absolutely perfect monster movie. And she is now looking for a way to turn her hamster Mr. Snuggles into a vicious movie monster! Will you help Susie fulfill her dream - or will you stand by poor Mr. Snuggles? It's up to you! People like chain-smoking pet groomer Ricky, host of the legendary cat beauty contest "Ricky's Finest". And keeper of a hairy, and immensely profitable secret. ** A game with tricky puzzles ** What would a point & click adventure game be without tricky puzzles? Combine items from your inventory in the right way, unlock further paths of your entertaining journey in dialogues, and interact with numerous objects, characters, and four-legged friends. All tasks in "Scott Whiskers in: the Search for Mr. Fumbleclaw" can be solved logically with a little puzzling - even if it doesn't hurt to think outside the box now and then. To help you not lose sight of the many, many goals on the search for Mr. Fumbleclaw, an automatically created journal helps you to keep track of everything at all times. In order for you to not miss any interesting events, a "hotspot display" that can be activated at any time to help you highlight important objects in the current scene. ** Features ** * a gripping story about animals, people, and life itself, told with a big wink * beautifully hand-drawn, high-resolution backgrounds in combination with three-dimensional characters give the game its very own visual charm * a captivating soundtrack you won’t be able to get out of your head for a long time * an automatic journal of your journey and tasks * hotspot display that can be activated at any time * free and automatic saving * unlock many achievements * duration: approx. 12 hours
