First of all, the art of murder review by Randy Sluganski was really cool and it took the words right out of my mouth ( especially when it comes to the negative points).


After developer City Interactive announced their new game Testament of Sin recently http://www.adventurecorner.de/gallery.php?id=430, today the sequel to the art of murder was announced. The german pc magazine Pc Games has one exclusive screenshot:

Despite that, it is known that FBI Confidential2 will feature the same protagonist Nicole Bonnet but they´ll use a new graphic engine, instead of the wintermute engine.

Publisher DTP will show material of the game at the Games Convention that starts on wednesday.
I´ll tell you the impressions of what I´ve seen, when I´m back from the Convention.

FACT SHEET
ART OF MURDER: Hunt for the Puppeteer

Product: Art of Murder: Hunt for the Puppeteer
Developer: City Interactive S.A.
Publisher: City Interactive S.A.
Format: PC
Game type: adventure/point&click
Age group: 16-45, men and women
Availability: Q1 2009

DESCRIPTION OF THE GAME
Art of Murder: Hunt for the Puppeteer was made by City Interactive S.A.. The game is a continuation of a popular and well received Art of Murder: FBI Confidential. AoM: Hunt for the Puppeteer is a classical point & click adventure game. Like in every detective game the player is required to think logically and to link facts quickly.  The player will once again assist Nicole Bonnet, an FBI agent, who has to deal with a different dark case.

OVERVIEW OF THE PLOT

The United States are stricken by a series of mysterious, brutal murders. A seemingly similar death is discovered across the ocean in Paris, France. The killer seems to have a special trademark - the body is always accompanied by a mysterious doll dressed in 17th c. clothing. Nicole Bonnet, a young but experienced FBI agent, conducts the investigation. Left to her own devices, she will face new difficulties and undertake a journey through two continents – from France and Spain to the exotic Cuba. The investigation may lead her to surprising discoveries – a series of events from centuries ago.

The player conducts an investigation that demands courage, sacrifice and logical thinking. His objective is to discover what is the link between the seemingly random victims, what are the motives of the calculated killer and, most importantly, to stop him before he strikes again.

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE GAME

•      Intriguing plot with unexpected twists.
•      Highly-detailed locations created by the best of graphic designers.
•      Complex, three-dimensional characters.
•      An immersive dark mood created by a skilful combination of plot, graphics, music written specially for the game and realistic sound effects.
•      Journey through the dark corners of New Orleans, alleys and backstreets of Paris and Marseille, the Spanish Pyrenees and hot Havana.

I can't even get through the first Art of Murder.  The porter will not let me down the stairs.  He just keeps repeating the phone number for Warren.  So, I don't want the 2nd one. lol

One little additional info to the fact sheet.
The second part won´t use the same engine as part 1.
At the GC we were told that  instead of the wintermute engine, they´re using a modified Still Life/Syberia Engine this time.
