Official description

The Year is 1936. The planet is teetering on the brink of a world war. A Talisman of enormous power, the imperial seal of the first emperor of China could tip the balance of power for the one who possesses it.

Players take on the role of Robert Ripley, adventurer, world traveller, collector of the strange and bizarre, real-life creator of the "believe it or not!" odditoriums with your constant companion Mei Chen, mistress of the martial arts. You must prevent the seal from falling into the hands of a ruthless enemy. Along the way, you must also acquire new attractions to keep your Odditorium in New York in business, as the museum's revenue funds your globe-trotting adventures.

*An original story based upon a baffling true-life mystery of the ancient world.

Explore over 200 authentic and historically accurate environments, including Peiping, Easter Island and a lost city in the Andes.

Use of unique cinematic techniques depicting character emotions give this graphic adventure its own distinctive visual style.

Rational, real world puzzle-solving offers obstacles with achievable goals for all levels of expertise.

An involving and evolving true-live story line for a totally non-linear gaming experience.
