I usually keep tabs on new adventure games coming out but I had never heard of this one before.

Inside Mac Games has an article today about a Mac version of a Sierra-type adventure called Inherit the Earth: Quest for the Orb.  It's available for Mac and Windows and it is from a company called Wyrmkeep Entertainment. Has anyone played this yet? The game on the company's web site: http://www.wyrmkeep.com/ite/ looks great so I just downloaded the demo and I can't wait to try it out.

I have.

It's a fun game, aimed towards a younger audience. All of the characters are anthropomorphic animal-people, rather like Mice Of Nihm. The main hero is a fox, and one of the things that I found most interesting was the animation for walking on a digitigrade biped - very believable.

It's got a good, solid storyline. A couple mazes though, which become rather boring and repetative. It's got a good few plot twists, and all of the animal species are portrayed by their main traits - dogs are warlike, foxes are thieves, mice are secretive spies, deer are nomadic nature-loving druids. The voice acting on the CD version is unusually good.

I'd reccomend giving it a shot if you have the spare time. It was on Underdogs a while ago, but don't think it's there anymore. Definitely a good game for younger players or people new to adventure games, but be sure to keep some paper handy for the maps.

It's an old game (1994) being re-released and ported by the Wyrmkeep (probably with changes considering that sight talks about it running on WinXP, etc). Originally developed by The Dreamer's Guild and published by New World Computing, CD-ROM version - marketed and distributed by US Gold.

We can be heroes, just for one day.

I read on the AG site that a sequel to ITE might be produced soon.
