In Cold Blood
Trivia
Development
Charles Cecil, interviewed in PC Review of November 1997, in conjunction with the release of Broken Sword II: The Smoking Mirror:
At the moment 3D games tend to look very samey. If we use the 3Dfx card then they tend to look like every other 3Dfx game. At the moment this is the very thing we're trying to decide - whether or not we'll be using 3D graphics in what we do next.
Plot
The plot of the game strangely resembles Andrew Plotkin's text adventure Spider and Web (1998). Whether or not Revolution Software nicked plot elements remains unknown.
Mobile version
In October 2000, In Cold Blood was the first popular commercial PC game to get a simultaneous release as a mobile phone game, stripped down in graphics and gameplay at hand-held standards. The game used WAP technology and was published by Ludiwap. The first episode was available for a free trial.
