How is Salammbo: Battle for Carthage?

[SCO]

I think this is quite possibly the last Cryo game.

Have you played it?

Now I remember reading about this on some magazine long ago.

Found a review here:

3 1/2 stars out of 5

Pros
Artistically brilliant, eclectic puzzles fit well into the story.

Cons
A bit too easy, bad panoramic engine, disappointing ending.

Might be worth demoing...

From what i can see, by this time they had already lost Stephaine Picq and had to "settle" for classical music.

hmmm. I think i will eventually "demo" it.

It's not really much of a game, more like an interactive story with a couple myst-like puzzles, and the story isn't even any good. Might be worth playing for the art style alone, however. Check out the screenshots. If you like, go dl it.

Yes.

For the sake of irony, the company whose first big commercial success in the sphere of adventure gaming was the game based on the book Dune written by Frank Herbert finished its business adventure in the similar fashion - with the game based on the novel written by Gustave Flaubert.
