Simon Lundmark: "Malachi Rector has a knack for pegging the origin of antiques, but it's a skill that extends beyond that. He also has an uncanny ability to analyse people and deduce who they truly are. This talent catches the eye of a secretive organisation that hires him to track down and assess certain individuals - an assignment that quickly embroils him in shady assassination plots and global conspiracy. Jane Jensen, most known for the Gabriel Knight series back in the Sierra Online days, penned this latest adventure game developed by Cognition's Phoenix Online Studios. As a huge fan of her previous work, and of Gabriel Knight in particular (I spent 90% of my Cognition review yapping about it), I was thrilled to throw myself into this game."
Good storys are quite rare among the videogames business nowadays. So much the better, if you finally find a game with a moving story. The first game Gameplane.de's Editor in Chief ever played was Gabriel Knight: Sins of the fathers, which got a remake recently. That wouldn’t have been possible without Jane Jensen – so it was time to ask one of the icons of the adventure genre out. Enjoy Gameplane.de's interview!
SelectButton: "The much awaited paranormal mystery adventure game Moebius: Empire Rising is the latest title from acclaimed novelist and video game designer Jane Jensen. She is best known for her work with the classic adventure game Gabriel Knight. With the help of Phoenix Online publishing they were able to deliver a game with an elaborate storyline with complex characters and beautiful settings."
Twinfinite writes:
"There is nothing more disappointing than a game that has promise, but fails to deliver from just about all fronts. Regrettably, Moebius: Empire Rising is one of them."
