I can’t believe this is finally out! For those that aren’t old enough to remember the classic CDROM games from the 90s, The 7^th Guest is a true classic.  Look out for a review soon.

Trilobyte Games, LLC today announced a new, Android operating system version of the firm’s blockbuster classic: The 7^th Guest. Replete with a new, HD touch-screen interface that upscales the game beautifully to high definition; new maps; new animations and icons; and a host of other new features, the “20^th Anniversary Edition” of the popular video game is available now at the Google Play or Amazon AppStore for (USD) $5.99. Download the title here: http://get.mojo-touch.com/7thguest.

When The 7th Guest was first released in 1993, it was one of the first two games designed for CDROM. At the time, Bill Gates called it: “…the new standard in interactive entertainment.” A puzzle-solving game, The 7th Guest was the first title to use full-rendered 3D animation and navigation.  It was the number-one rated game in 1994 user polls.  The new 20^th Anniversary version marks the company’s first entry into the burgeoning Android space, extending the reach of Trilobyte Games’ intellectual property into all OS-based markets.

“We are delighted to be working with the pro team at MojoTouch on this important project,” said Rob Landeros, co-founder, creative director and chair. “Our fans extend across all devices and markets and we are excited to be offering a special, re-featured Android version of our game.”
