When it comes to hidden object games with romantic themes, Cupid's arrow has tended to miss the mark. If Gamezebo's past reviews of such games are any indication it just goes to show that even though HOGs and romance novels might seem like a perfect fit for each other, there's still plenty that can go wrong in the execution. Leave it to the folks at I-play and Floodlight Games (the team behind the successful Agatha Christie and Women's Murder Club hidden object franchises) to get things right with Nora Roberts: Vision in White.
Play the "Dante's Inferno" video game and one thing quickly becomes clear ... this is not your great-great-great-great-great-great grandma's "Divine Comedy."
In this latest adaptation of the 14th century Italian poem about a man's descent into hell, gone is the soft-hearted scribe protagonist - a man who cowers and even faints when faced with the infernal beasts before him. Taking his place: a fearless, muscle-bound warrior who slices and dices one wicked monstrosity after another.
I-play, Oberon Media's publishing division and the world's leading multi-platform casual games publisher, today announced that its latest game release based on a best-selling author - Nora Roberts Vision in White - is now available for PC download. Based on the wildly popular Bride Quartet novel series, of which the first two books have more than 1 million copies in print, the Vision in White game seamlessly integrates the familiar plotlines to deliver the most interactive Nora Roberts experience to date.
Vision in White is named after and based on the first book in Nora Roberts' Bride Quartet series. You'll play Mackensie Eliot, a wedding photographer and one of the four founders of Vows, Connecticut's premier wedding planning company. Mackensie, or "Mac" to her friends, runs the company with her three childhood friends Parker Brown (the company's wedding coordinator), Emma Grant (the florist), and Laurel McBane (the pastry chef).
