In a press release sent to Gaming Cypher today, Cubus Games announced the new interactive novel, Necklace of Skulls, an exhilarating quest into the far reaches of the ancient Mayan civilization.
Written by Dave Morris, author of the *Fabled Lands* and *Virtual Reality* series, Necklace of Skulls has players enter a forgotten world where ghostly creatures roam free and demons are very real indeed!
THE STORY
The sole survivor of an expedition brings news of disaster. The player’s twin sibling is lost in the trackless Western Sierra. Determined to find out what happened, the protagonist leaves the safety of home to embark on a quest through lost jungle cities, mountains and seas – even the depths of the underworld.
If players are brave enough to survive the dangers of the spirit-haunted Western Desert, they must still confront the wizard, Necklace of Skulls, in a fight to the death . . . and for their very own souls.
