Datax, the man behind the fantastic Parking Wars, has created yet another monstrously cool conversion for Myth II. As soon as The Mill starts to breathe again, you will be able to download Clue: A Knife In The Dark. Anyone familiar with the popular boardgame knows the basic plot, but you can expect a much different experience from Datax's project. Here are some of the new things you can expect to see in A Knife In The Dark:
-The inclusion of humanlike bots, all but indistinguishable from human players.
-A modern, indoor atmosphere furnished with many new scenery items.
-The random initial placement of six unique weapons among nine unique rooms, such that no two weapons are in the same place.
-The use of non-global weather effects to create a convincing map that is partly indoors and partly outdoors.
-The use of dynamic music which changes to suit the happenings of the game.
-Such special effects as an expanding bloodstain beneath the body of one killed by the Knife.
-An entirely new set of gameplay objectives in a Myth II netmap. To win, a player must either kill Mr. Boddy and survive the remainder of the game or ascertain the murderer and kill him.
-A complete (but optional) in-game cutscene to keep you entertained through a minute and a half of planning time.
Can you spell awesome ? Can you at least say it?
