Point'n Click adventure: NEONnoir v1.2
The point'n click adventure game "NEONnoir" (video) was developed with AmiBlitz for the Amiga Blitz Basic Game Jam. As a down-and-out private detective, the player has to track down a drug-addicted daughter from a good family (amiga-news.de reported).

Originally, the developers had planned to release the game in a boxed version, but this could not be realised. However, the German and Italian translations that have already been completed, as well as a manual, will now at least benefit users of the digital version. (dr)
