Summary
The Raven: Legacy of a Master Thief presents a classic mystery wrapped in the classic adventure game format.
Harking back to the detective stories of yesteryear, with a great big nod to the likes of Agatha Christie, the game takes players on a breakneck race across 1960s Europe. Things start off with Swiss constable Anton Jakob Zellner aboard the Orient Express. A priceless jewel, one of the two Eyes of the Sphinx, has been stolen in a daring museum robbery. The robbery has all the hallmarks of a crime committed by legendary burglar The Raven. It wasn't so long ago he was believed dead - has he returned, or is this an imitator? Players will follow his trademark black feathers across the continent to attempt to work it out!
Players must scour environments, thick with atmosphere, for clues and objects they need. Progressing through the game is about putting together the clues and objects to figure out the next piece of the puzzle.
The game has a slick, bright presentation that oozes the class you'd expect of an Agatha Christie mystery.
Legacy of a Master Thief packs ‘The Eye of the Sphinx’, ‘Ancestry Of Lies’, and ‘A Murder Of Ravens’ into one box for the first time. Mystery fans have a lot to sink their teeth into with The Raven.
