1552 flieht ein Muslim vor Banditen durch die Wüste. In letzter Sekunde trifft er in einer Oase auf Sie, den schottischen Übersetzer Adrian. Standgrafiken, drehbar um 360 Grad, durch die man sich schrittweise klickt - das ist aus anderen Adventures bekannt, deshalb können Sie schnell reagieren. Sie ergreifen ein Strohgeflecht, breiten dieses über eine Grube und tarnen es mit Sand. Nachdem Sie Ihre Spuren mit einem Palmwedel verwischt haben, springen Sie in das Versteck und beobachten die Szene.

Apart from more or less visible knowledge transfer (in the times of "Who wants to be a millionaire?" one must use each source) I had fun with "Jerusalem" ! Particularly I would like to emphasize the graphic improvements, which is particularly designed variedly and closer to real life, almost like a movie through the change of perspectives. I hope that in the third part of the trilogy this card is then played even more.

Au final, Jérusalem s'inscrit dans la droite lignée de ses prédécesseurs. Si vous avez apprécier Pompéi, il y a donc de grandes chances que vous accrochiez à ce titre. En outre, il constitue une excellente manière d'aborder et de comprendre les conflits qui se déroulent actuellement au proche Orient.

Depuis 1996, date de sortie de Versailles, Cryo nous avait habitué au jeu historique à vocation éducative, entendez par là un jeu d'aventure dans un contexte historique dont le but avoué est de vous instruire sur l'époque en mêlant intrigue, culture et reconstitution des décors d'époque menée de main de maître par la réunion des Musées Nationaux. Avec Jérusalem, vous découvrez comment cohabitaient les trois principales religions dans la ville sainte de Jérusalem au 16ème siècle.

Als edutainment pakketje kan het wel tellen, maar Jerusalem heeft gewoon te weinig te bieden om als deftig game bestempeld te worden!

Quandary
Overall the graphics and background music are good and the voice acting tolerable. Jerusalem is a pleasant enough playing experience but it is fairly short and routine. It is about the same length and quality as Egypt 2 but I liked the story and heroine of Egypt 2 more. It is better produced than Pompeii. The puzzles are easy for experienced gamers but may well suit beginning adventurers though there are better games than this one to start off with.

In Jerusalem, it wouldn't have been so bad if you could have bypassed mind numbingly lecturing conversations and enjoyed the game - but in fact the game would not always advance without them. I have to admit - I am like the little kid in the Life cereal ads - I pretty much find something to like about almost any game, but the original Pompeii made me want to shoot the game box. I finished it finally by playing through it with a WT in hand - just to get it over with. The same applies to Jerusalem for the most part.

Das Programm versteht sich als Mix aus Spiel und interaktivem Geschichtsbuch. Vieles dreht sich um die Ursprünge von Weltreligionen. Ärgerlicherweise ist die Umsetzung misslungen, das Ganze wirkt so einschläfernd wie das Wort zum Sonntag. Auch Grafik, Dialoge und Rätsel sind billig und lieblos.
