💖 LURE(6) — the games manual glow-up 💖

✨ NAME ✨

lure — classic 2D point and click fantasy adventure game. that's it, that's the whole vibe. 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so Lure of the Temptress was Revolution's very first adventure game, and the way that work began on it in 1989?? like, before Revolution's inception as an actual games development company. it was out here existing before the company was even a company. main character energy fr fr. 👑

so you're Diermot, an unwilling hero who'd honestly prefer a quiet life, and you are, to all intents and purposes, a good man. we love a lowkey king. 🫶

so after decades of unrest, the King has united the warring factions in his kingdom and all his lands are at peace — except a remote region around a town called Turnvale. and a revolt has recently taken place in Turnvale, a revolt orchestrated by an apprentice sorceress called Selena, the titular temptress. (title drop!! the temptress!! she's the lure!! iykyk 😭)

the king calls together his finest horsemen and heads off (with you in tow, bestie, you're literally being dragged along) to Turnvale just to witness how hellish mercenary monsters called Skorl are invading the town. just to witness. the audacity honestly.

and then it goes bad. the king's men are defeated, the king is killed, and you fall off your horse and bang your head heavily on the ground. 💀

you have been unconscious for a while when you realize that you are in a dingy cell guarded by a not so friendly Skorl. maybe it would be an idea to try and escape... 🙈
