Do you like graphic adventure games with sharp pictures, mouse
support, save and restore game functions, and spine-shivering puzzles
to solve? Then THE LAST HALF OF DARKNESS is for you!
When the game starts, you find yourself in front of your recently
deceased aunt's mansion. In order to gain the title to her fortune and
estate, you must find the ingredients to a potion she was working on
before she was killed. It won't be easy as there are many strange
denizens in the old mansion. Some will help you in your quest, while
others would just as soon finish you off!
Choose one of the listed commands with either the keyboard or mouse.
Use speaker sound or Covox's Speech Thing. Examine everything, take
what you can, and don't forget to save your game before you do
anything dangerous which, in this game, can be a frequent thing.
What are you waiting for? Dust those cobwebs off your trusty old map
notebook and take a journey to THE LAST HALF OF DARKNESS!
