Mindjacking, Puzzle Solving, Pixel P & C Fun (DEMO style)

TB-logoI just finished the demo for Technobabylon which you can get off their website or on STEAM:

It was one of the best p & c demos I’ve played yet.  It was an amazing teaser that showed the games mechanics and revealed a clever puzzle thought mover with an epic story.

Here’s the official text on it:

ABOUT TECHNOBABYLON

City of Newton, 2087. 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. All three of these characters are introduced in the demo, and you’ll get to play as two of them. Blade Runner meets Police Quest in Technobabylon, a slick point & click adventure that blends past and future with its retro-styled pixel art and intense cyberpunk plotline. Technobabylon sets you loose in a world where ‘wetware’ wires people directly to the web, where the cerebral online Trance has replaced almost any need for human interaction, where the city’s omnipresent AI, Central, has eyes on everyone and everything — a world that could someday be ours. Learn more at the official website.
