I think the adventure game mentiomed is based on Umberto Eco's book 'the name of the rose'.
( a book set in the 1300s - and a kind of mystery about a lost book )

Status : Online | Yes, it has something to do with that incredibly bad and uninteresting movie... I'm wondering what Eco thinks of the fact that his book is turned into computergames, boardgames, bad movies, etc.. He of course agreed with the making of the movie, but I don't think he has a copyright on everything with an abbey / mystery theme...
The game looks interesting though. Did anyone play 'Vespers' by Jason Devlin? Nice Interactive Fiction-game with a similar atmosphere...

The whole game will have the atmosphere of the book, even more than the movie.

Good point, though. I doubt you have sought Eco's permission to make a game on his book. The 'based on" part might give you an escape route, though.

Status : Online | Today December 31 and before it concludes 2006, we have renovated the web of the prospective game "The Enigma of the Abbey." Now it possesses a much more functional, beautiful and dynamic new design, chord with the romanic aesthetic. The web is totally in Spanish but soon we will have translations in English, German and French, languages in those that it is sought to translate.
Much more periodic upgrades are promised for enjoyment of all, of this prospective game that continues in process.
