Game: The Blackwell Legacy

The Blackwell Legacy is a bit of a departure from the kind of games Gamezebo usually reviews, but the mature story - about a psychic medium and her "spirit guide" investigating cases of unhappy ghosts - had us intrigued, as did the retro two-dimensional art style that made us fondly recall classic adventure games like King's Quest and Quest for Glory. Rosangela Blackwell is a struggling author living in New York city who reviews books for the local newspaper to make ends meet. Her life is changed forever when she's paid a visit by Joey Mallone, a ghostly hanger-on inexplicably tied to female members of the Blackwell family, who are the only living people who can see him. From then on, Joey is Rosangela's constant companion.
