Famed Russian Publisher 1C Makes U.S. Debut with Innovative PC Game
Russian video game developer and publisher, 1C, is gearing up to make its debut in the North American market with the PC 3D adventure game Jazz and Faust.
Description
In Jazz and Faust players assume the role of one of two characters – the covetous smuggler Jazz or the enchanting sea captain Faust. Players then embark on an epic adventure through a marvelously rendered world of the Ancient East and will have the unique opportunity to see some of the same events from two completely different points of view. The game features two variant paths, depending on which character was selected, each offering its own unique storyline, but progressing to equally rich endings. Jazz and Faust will even run into one another during their intrepid travels, but have many experiences unique to each character that will keep each journey fresh and exciting. The characters’ different personalities and motivations provide two completely different game perspectives, thus extending the life and playability of the game. The game takes players into an extremely versatile world made up of over 80 puzzle-laden scenes and inhabited by over 50 characters. Three challenging picturesque worlds await ardent players: The first is a nefarious desert of caravans, ghost towns and sultry caravanserais packed with seedy characters. There are also markets packed with all types of goods being bought, sold and traded. The second is a seacoast world of smuggling seaman and loot dealers – many of which conduct their shifty dealings in the town’s taverns. The third is world set in the middle of the sea along a trade route. This makes it the perfect setting for mercenaries, heroes and scoundrels to conduct their reprehensible activities.
