It's a familiar sound, the whine of the games critic proclaiming the demise and subsequent rebirth of the adventure game. But while the genre's death has been exaggerated, it's nonetheless been subject to some fairly rough times over the last 20 years.
Cing know this better than anyone. Their fascination with story, mystery and good old-fashioned moider began with the JB Harold games in the early '90s.
Oh, you don't remember them? They were a series of cinematic murder mysteries - words which here mean 'FMV games' - for some systems you've never heard of.
Like many of their early dalliances with adventure and horror, it wasn't made by Cing at all, but by the company that would give birth to them, Riverhill.
