 Adventure Gamers : Lure of the Temptress
Lure of the Temptress is set in the thriving quasi-medieval village of Turnvale, rendered in VGA graphics reminiscent of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.
Lure of the Temptress is certainly the weakest game in the Revolution lineup, and you won’t find eye-popping graphics or a complex plot to coo over.
Lure is not a good game, but it is an innovative one, which marks out Revolution as a company prepared to push boundaries and take risks.

 , ergo we can't include 'quandaryheader.html' like we do elsewhere -->
The manual for Lure boasts that it is the first game of it's type to utilise a concept which Revolution have dubbed Virtual Theatre.
What makes Lure a little bit more difficult than it should be is the fact that a 320 x 200 VGA picture becomes extremely blocky as each pixel gets blown up to about four times it's original size when it's displayed on a modern 17-inch monitor.
The music in Lure is strictly for the brave, being that early 90's period MIDI mix of discordant single notes coupled with equally discordant bass notes for dramatic effect.

Select one enemy unit which will then move towards the temptress (the movement must be towards the temptress) at thier maximum movement or less, all units will move out of the way of the tempted unit except of course wards (the movement will be selected by the controller of the temptress).

I think statistically the chance is far greater, because I don't believe there are 10,000 adventure games, and probably no more than several hundred that could be "it".
And I acutally think Lure of the Temptress is not a bad guess at all, the graphical style certainly looks close enough...
No, it isn't Lure Of The Temptress and I don't remember that kind of bright colors in that game - I think it was pretty darkish overall.
