Haarlem, The Netherlands, October 17th 2006.

The suspense adventure game for the PC is currently under development and set for release in Q1, 2007.

Erik Schreuder, CEO of Lighthouse Interactive said: “We are very excited at Lighthouse to add a paranormally gifted hero like Delaware St. John to our stable of promising games. This series has more atmosphere, thrills and tension building than most games, without using any gore; it is a storytelling accomplishment. We are absolutely looking forward to the release of this game and building a long-term franchise for both companies.”

Big Time Games CEO Bryan Wiegele added: “Given their history with adventure games and their growing line-up of quality titles, we are very pleased to partner with Lighthouse Interactive for our Delaware St. John game series.”

Delaware St. John: “The Seacliff Tragedy” brings all new elements and interactivity to the series as Delaware faces his toughest challenge to date. The sound of a hundred voices call out to Delaware, leading him to the site of a decrepit amusement park. An ominous presence hangs over the area, for this site had been closed some four years earlier after a collapse killed more than a hundred people. As Delaware explores the area he discovers the tragic accident is only the beginning of the dark events taking place here. Guarding the park are demons known as Shadow People. Delaware and his partner, Kelly Bradford, must fend off these soul-stealing monsters if they are to survive the night. While Delaware has his psychic visions to lead him, Kelly relies on special equipment like an EMF counter to track paranormal activity invisible to the naked eye. Together they must explore the remains of the park and unlock all of the dark secrets behind The Seacliff Tragedy.
