Jane Jensen, author of the Gabriel Knight game series, has a new adventure game in the works: Gray Matter. Gray Matter follows the now standard and easily accessible adventure game formula of ‘click this and take that to solve this puzzle,’ but it is the plot that makes Gray Matter unique.
Jensen has written a storyline that intertwines the lives of two main characters: street magician Samantha Everett and neurobiologist David Styles. Alternately playing through the lives of Samantha and David, the player unravels the story line’s many intertwined mysteries. Game mechanics include visual puzzles, riddles, and a unique interface for building sleight-of-hand ‘magic’ tricks.
As author Jane Jensen sums up the plot, “It’s all about synchronicity.”
Gray Matter is set to be released on PC and Xbox 360 by dtp entertainment AG in Q3 2010.
