La secte noire

La secte noire (The Black Sect) is a French first-person adventure game. It takes place in Issegeac, a quiet little village in the Périgord Noir in France, that is terrorized by a dark sect. The player is a dwarf stranger who appears to help the villagers by retrieving a magical tome the sect has stolen.

The game consists of several single-screen rooms exploring the village and its surroundings. The environment takes up the largest portion of the screen in the top left part, there is fantasy artwork on the right and the text parser where all commands are entered is at the bottom. Basic commands are entered for moving around, picking up items and performing actions. Below the parser portion sentences appear to provide descriptions or feedback on the player's actions.

The game supports saving and loading.
