Lost Horizon Preview - Adventure Point exclusive!

I recently had the pleasure of playing and previewing Animation Arts' exciting (and I mean EXCITING), new Adventure game, Lost Horizon.

It may well be the only official Preview article on the internet at the moment, so please take a look.

I really think this is going to be a cracker! Very Happy

Anyway, you're welcome to read my Preview article, and decide for yourselves.

Here it is : Lost horizon Preview

Nice preview, Gelert! I think a lot of people will be interested in this one.

Thanks both. To be honest, the preview was so enjoyable the article doesn't really do it justice.

Oh man what talent and hand drawn, now that's a born artist. I envy people's talents. This game looks great, can't wait to play it, thanks for that preview Gelert. sunny

Lost Horizon sounds to be a great title to look forward to. I already had it on my 'want' list even before reading the preview. Now it is on my 'really want' list when it releases, hehe.

In answer to a question I've been asked regarding release location and language, I received this from my helpful contact at the publishers today . . . .

"Hi Gelert,

I hope you had a fantastic weekend? Wow what a preview, a lovely written piece on the Lost Horizon : ) .................................... Regards to your other email, Lost Horizon will be getting a worldwide release of the 27th August 2010, and I believe will be available in all common languages."

Yes. I know. I immodestly kept in the praise bit about the Preview. I was chuffed with that! Very Happy

Seems I haven't been here since April, but I had to come back to say how very much I enjoyed reading the preview of Lost Horizon, a game I've been looking forward to playing since finishing Secret Files 2: Puritas Cordis last year. Those screenshots were awesome!
It didn't hurt that the game was compared to 3 of my favorite games. Indiana Jones: Fate of Atlantis, one of my all-time faves; The Flight of the Amazon Queen, which I played in 2006 after it was released as a free game; and Heart of China, one of the earlier games I played and still remember how sorry I was when it ended, wanted it to go on and not stop. Yes, this is one game I am definitely looking forward to playing.
Many thanks, Gelert, for the preview!
