Mata Hari (2008) | Point & Click Adventure | 4K60 | Longplay Full Game Walkthrough No Commentary
Longplay of Mata Hari, a 3D point & click adventure game, developed by Cranberry Production, and published by Viva Media. It was released in late November 2008 for the PC only. There are reasons to believe it is running on the same game engine as Black Mirror II/III. Here it is running at a full 3840x2160/4K60 (though the aspect ratio is still 16:10, with bars left and right, same as Black Mirror II), highest possible details. Recorded at 4K60 H.265 HEVC via OBS. This here is the Steam version of the game.
It is a classic style point & click adventure game set just before the beginning of World War I and during the first weeks from the assassination of Franz Ferdinand, taking plance in major western european cities, with everything on par with the rest of the genre when it comes to gameplay, including visuals, but TWO big twists: an inter-city train map puzzle, whenever you need to travel to another location. You have to reach your destination, and avoid the enemy "patrols", who can move in the same directions as you, one step at a time, which makes almost every travel really tiresome and full of RNG. And that is actually the worst aspect of the whole game for me, which is why I skipped it whenever I got the option to do so. The second one is... dancing on stage, for points, money or whatever. It was pretty difficult actually. Apparently there is some way to just grind the points in this game, but I am not sure what it changes - I still got the Good ending, and it's the points/money/experience that determines the ending, I think.
