"Like Riven you are not only playing a game but also experiencing a world. A world conceived as a whole, as an entirety. The puzzles interlock to form one single puzzle. This is a work of art and technology." -- Quandary

Adventure, Mystery and Intrigue!

This atmospheric graphical adventure is set on Alida, a guitar-shaped island theme park created by a young and wildly successful band. But when money woes and paranoia set in, the band splits up, each claiming different areas of the park, and where each devise strange and elaborate systems to protect their respective remaining wealth. Each member grows increasingly isolated and all eventually abandon Alida. Several years later the band’s manager suggests the band get together on the island. Soon thereafter band member Arin leaves for Alida and is not heard from again. Now, his wife, Julia, sends you to Alida to find Arin and bring him home.

Alida is an intricate first person 3D graphical adventure game. With its wondrous and ornate graphics, unique and bizarre locations, clever and thought-provoking puzzles, all backed by an entrancing original music score, as you search for Arin, you will soon find yourself lost in Alida.

Just Adventure by Robert Washburne

"And then came Alida. And it was like deja vu all over again. Everything about this game from the story to the graphics, from the sound to the navigation system reminds you of Myst. So I would like to present to you Alida, one the of the few true Myst clones."

"This is a classic adventure game. If you enjoy adventure games, then you will enjoy this one. The fact that it was created by a single person is just amazing. I really wanted to give this game an “A,” but the navigation system was so flawed that it dragged the final score down to a “B”. Still, get this game. Pay retail for it. Visit the website and send a nice email to Cos. We need more games like this."
