The Crimson Diamond - 04 - Indulging a bit /w @MysteriousJG
5In this episode, after a little more snooping and talking we find ourselves another game over and then sit down to a lovely dinner with great conversation.
"The Crimson Diamond" is a retro-style mystery adventure from Canadian developer Julia Minamata using Adventure Game Studio. Inspired by classic Sierra titles like Colonel’s Bequest, this game drops us into a world of intrigue, eccentric characters, and pixel-perfect charm. I’m joined by MysteriousJG as we step into the shoes of Nancy Maple, a mineralogist with a knack for uncovering secrets and a penchant for eavesdropping. With its text-parser interface, detailed EGA-style visuals, and a great atmosphere, The Crimson Diamond is both a loving tribute to and a fresh take on the classic adventure genre. (And a big plus for me, there seems to be many chances to get interesting game overs!)
