About This Game
Relive the days of classic gaming with Shady Brook, a dark mystery text adventure inspired by the television series Twin Peaks in which players take on the role of author Jake Torrent in his search of a small town's twisted secrets.GameplayShady Brook
combines the best elements of interactive fiction, visual novels, and
gamebooks with a graphic user interface that emulates the look of early
1990s text adventures. It features beautiful artwork and cinematic
music. In place of a text parser is a context-specific multiple choice
menu. A compass allows you to travel from room to room, and separate
inventory, map, journal, and character screens are available at the push
of a button. Shady Brook plays like an interactive
novel. You make a series of choices that determine what happens next in
the story. But unlike traditional gamebooks and choose-your-own
adventures, Shady Brook also features more advanced adventure
game mechanics, including locations to explore, items to collect and
use, characters to meet and interact with, and puzzles to solve.StoryAuthor
