Reverb Triple XP and indie dev Zojoi take Throwback Thursday a lot more serious than I do. Whereas I won't even change my Facebook picture, they announced that they'll launch a special retro two-pack update to Shadowgate this Saturday, November 22.
The two-pack consists of two legendary "MacVenture" titles — the original Shadowgate and Deja Vu: A Nightmare Comes True. Each version comes with both the 128k Mac and Apple IIgs versions, and it will be a free update to owners of Shadowgate. To accompany this release, Shadowgate will also have a limited time promotional price on Steam starting at 10am PST on Saturday, November 22.
The original Shadowgate comes in the original black/white and 4-bit color versions. Deja Vu is the title I'm not familiar with. You are put in the role of Ace Harding, retired boxer and private eye. He wakes up in a bathroom stall unable to remember anything and framed for murder. Now you must solve a complex murder mystery before your health or the cops bring you down.
