Mata Hari released... we guess 26 Jul, 2009, 11:43 / 8 comments

By The Tingler


Apparently the Hal Barwood/Noah Falstein-advised Mata Hari is now out in US stores, although GameStop haven't heard of it and Amazon are only offering that double pack with a Sherlock Holmes game, and that doesn't ship for "1 to 3 weeks" (Amazon slang for "out of stock").

If you want it though, Direct2Drive may be your best bet as GamersGate have it for a frankly ridiculous price.

    WW1 adventure game about a Dutch spy? Well at least its original.

    Really? It's supposed to be bad? That's a damn shame, was looking forward to that!

    I started playing it a couple of days ago, but just don't feel like continuing.
    Although the story might be good, I'm actually bored.
    - Lots of walking back and forth and the way of transportation doesn't help one bit.Really tiresome.
    - Minigames to just lenghten the game.
    - A dialog system with images of topics at bottom, which has to be clicked then clicked again on the person you want to talk to/with!

    I got my copy from Interactcd.com for $19.95.

    I went looking in Best Buy yesterday but couldn't find it near the Nancy Drew or Sherlock Holmes games.

    Careful! There are also hidden object Mata Hari games out there. Make sure you get the right one.

    Hah. Hopefully I would have noticed the lack of their names anywhere on the box, or otherwise I would be pretty disappointed with their puzzle design choices.

    £36? Are they fucking insane? £14 is pushing it.

    I'm definitely curious to play it but I can't really justify that much for a game that's, by all accounts, pretty awful.
