Amazon description
A text adventure with graphics by the famous writer Michael Crichton, author of "Jurassic Park". The game is not based on any book - the script was originally written for a computer game.
Title screen Waiting for a transmission from the Amazon
The main character works for a secret company NSRT, dealing with satellite technology. This company was sent the expedition to the tropical forests of Amazonia (West Brazil), to the lost city of chak, but soon because of Sputnik, it became known that the members of the expedition were brutally murdered, apparently by a tribe of cannibals, after which the authorities sent the hero that is called "into the Inferno". The task is simple, logical and challenging at the same time - to understand what happened here. The horrors of will, if that. In General, the plot is suspiciously similar to the "Congo" - but with the replacement of the hero-animal and type of minerals (if someone understand what I mean).
Trouble in the Amazon At the airport Could be still more trouble... Looks like you've made a friend
Interestingly, available not only in-game help system, but even three levels of difficulty to choose from. Management standard - input text-based commands from the keyboard. Graphics - CGA only, and not on every screen; strangely enough, its more than the average quality is very suitable to create the desired atmosphere of a tropical nightmare. The texts are usually short and not too elaborate (although in some cases it is not), but the plot, written by a master, still captures (you can find a talking parrot Paco with a heavy character, which will give you hints, you can find the schedule of flights at the airport, which will be issued in the form of a table, and you can even get lost in the jungle), in addition, there are rudimentary sound design, sometimes (for technical reasons) pretty creepy. A very unusual aspect is not just a high probability of death (wild animals, natives, lava volcano and not only - and in case of death will play the famous March...), but the presence of a pair of simple mini-games (and this is in the quest text).
Finally the Amazon jungle! And now lost in the Amazon
Summary: a game that, strictly speaking, ought to admit unimportant, but which, however, somehow attracts the attention and causes it to pass through. To some extent, already a classic.
Now, play Amazon online for free on your browser and make your boring weekend fun and full of entertainment.
