The game is how headed to the Wii, developed by Keen Games and planned for release Q1 2008, and the DS, developed by 10tacle Studios Mobile and due to be with us Q4 2007.
The backstory is based around a strange explosion, the power of 2,000 Hiroshima bombs, happens in Tunguska, Siberia, on the 30th of June 1908. Witnesses saw an oblong object, glowing in a blueish-white light, fall from the sky and a 20km high pillar of light was followed by a mushroom-shaped black cloud. The cause of the explosion was never found. In the present day, a young Russian woman called Nina Kalenkow leads a normal life until her father suddenly disappears. The police refuse to help her case, so she starts investigating herself. She teams up with Max Gruber, a colleague of her father, and discovers that his disappearance is linked to the events of June 1908. The adventure leads them do distant corners of the Earth, including Berlin, Moscow, Cuba, China and Antarctica. However, some mighty opponents are also interested in the secrets of Nina's father.
The game is a standard point and click affair, and lets you control two characters, Nina and Max, both separately and together, and offers 25 hours of gameplay. It uses a mixture of 3D character models, detailed weather effects, real-time light shaders and 2D pre-rendered backgrounds to create some "beautiful" graphics.
