GAME NOTES:
~~~~~~~~~~
The lawyer Kate Walker has been entrusted by the Universal Toy Company to
negotiate the takeover of an old luxury toy and automaton factory. Over
the centuries, the factory has been developing clockwork devices,
specializing in perpetual mechanical movement. The factory's ambitions,
however, are ill-suited to the contemporary economic climate, and the
elderly Anna Voralberg, at the helm of the Valadilene factory for more
than half a century, has decided to sell up.
It turns out that the takeover might not be as straightforward as expected.
The day that Kate Walker arrives, Anna Voralberg is being buried. What is
more is that she has left an heir - her brother Hans. But Hans had left
the valley at the end of the thirties and never returned, and was
actually believed to be dead. However, a letter written by Anna in the
days leading up to her death reveals that Hans is well and truly alive
and living somewhere in. Siberia! Valadilene's elderly notary entrusted
to take care of Anna's affairs suggests that Anna find Hans Voralberg
as he is now the only person in a position to ratify the sale of the
family business. The player will take on the role of the heroine,
Kate Walker, as she sets out on her long journey eastwards, encountering
cities along the way bearing the mark of Hans' genius, cities that
still exude the bygone days of the twentieth century in so many
different ways.
