'Theseis'

‘Theseis’ is expected to be coming out sometime in 2007 and it is the first Greek adventure video game for personal computers developed by Track7games. The company was established in 2003 and it is an independent game development team, based in Athens Greece, dedicated to creating innovative game play experiences. The aim of the game is to bring the Greek mythology to the 21st century and the greatest difference with other modern adventure games is that there will be no guns and no killing. However, the focus appears to be very heavily on puzzles and avoiding threats rather than confrontation.

In terms of game play, Theseis features the exploits of Andronicos and Pheve as they try to uncover the truth behind the disappearance of their stepfather. The game combines the realms of the natural and supernatural as brother and sister join forces to put to rest the struggle between good and evil that his disappearance brings about. The areas that are modelled (around 20 locations including areas like Monastiraki and Knossos) are looking very realistic and will be incredibly varied, spanning from the vibrant streets of Athens to the very bowels of Hades.
