Trecision
Trecision S.p.A. was an Italian video game developer founded in 1991 by Pietro Montelatici, Fabrizio Lagorio and Edoardo Gervino. The company's headquarters was in Rapallo (province of Genoa). Their first game was ''Profezia'' developed for Amiga and Personal computer, PC, followed by a number of titles for different platforms (Amiga, MS-DOS, PC, PlayStation, PlayStation 2, and mobile phones). Via a publishing agreement with English company ICE, they developed two adventure games, Alien Virus and Ark of Time but, unhappy with the economic treatment, they decided to switch publisher for Nightlong: Union City Conspiracy, releasing it with Team17, Team 17. The adventure was originally designed to be a sequel to Alien Virus, then Trecision modified it with a different cyberpunk theme. This caused a few issues with ICE since, apparently, they worked on the original concept of the game and thought they owned the license to publish it. In March 2000, Trecision acquired fellow Italian ga ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Plot The player character, a pilot named Joshua Stone, lands on Station Zeus after a month in hyper space, but finds the space station empty of life. Reception ''Computer Gaming World'' gave ''Alien Virus'' 2 stars and stated that "This game is fun to play and an improvement on the old text adventure format in many respects. However, it is also lacking in effective text, the greatest strength of the best text adventures." ''Alien Virus'' was reviewed in '' PC Gamer'' US, which rated the game 59% and stated "If the puzzles had been more interesting, or more closely related to the story, I might have at least stuck with the game to its end. But ultimately, ''Alien Virus'' proved to be too much of a snooze to be worth it." '' Computer Game Review'' was similarly lukewarm on the game. The website ''Game Zero'' said: "''Alien Virus'' could have been an excellent title. However, it just didn't ha ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Profezia
''Profezia'' (Italian for "prophecy") is a 1991 adventure video game with a multiple-choice interface: as opposed to classic adventures where the player is free to roam around the game world (or part of it), the storyline in ''Profezia'' develops automatically. Whenever an action is to be taken, the player is presented with a set of choices, which will affect the rest of the adventure. ''Profezia'' is set in the Middle Ages, in a mountain area between the two Italian regions of Abruzzo and Lazio. The player takes control of a mercenary who has been hired to retrieve a golden crown from the castle of Capistrello, where Duke Attilio intends to use it on an ancient Pagan rite. There is no unique path to complete the game: the player may follow alternate branches, provided that the actions which follow are coherent with their previous choices.
