Then, with the beginning of perestroika, the minds of the authors and counters filled with American citizenship. In extreme cases - with the English. I did not notice that the next, on a nearby bookshelf, hiding Vunderlyand. Untrodden, Beautiful Country, Herr and Frau.

Had to wait several decades before finding the studio, ready to "igronizirovat" adventure Perry Rodan. Undertaken business company 3d-io - international group of Serbian and German programmers. It was their first serious game project. Previously, children were engaged in computer design, production, training programs, encyclopedias and other "related products" such as simulator training flight through the solar system. Game Rhodan: Myth of the Illochim was for developers test the strength, but still finished well. The ship went to higher orbit - you can catch your breath and take off their spacesuits.

Memories of the Future We missed a good science fiction and sweet heart old school games that can fit on a 3-inch floppy disk. Then able to - why now forgotten how? You should not exaggerate - romance is still there and regularly dream of space and adventure. Rhodan: Myth of the Illochim - a game for real dreamers at the same time thriller with a tightly twisted intrigue. She, like steel springs, unwound gradually, not immediately. The usual riot of robots has truly universal scale catastrophe. But it will happen then, and while Perry scratching their heads over the next cipher. The game is replete with many cryptograms and puzzles. Some of them are quite simple, others make pretty thoughtful. It's good that the authors have not stinted on the tips and placed locations powerful positronic computers. Using a computer adventure game was a good tone.
