Talk:Dare, Bluff or Die (Rare/Unresurfaced 1994 PC Game)/@comment-24840667-20140601172609

Update: found an extract from a 1998 French multimedia catalog, mentioning the game: it states DBOD was released in France in September 1993 (legit? it's the only source stating 1993 as release date), albeit untranslated. There's a summary of what's inside the game ! But only the two first lines are available from Google Books. My city library should have this catalog, according to their listings, so one day or another I will give it a look and learn what this game is all about...

BTW - Giving it a thought, I'll bet that this game is NOT an interactive movie. A full interactive movie for PC, released on CD-ROM in the 90s wouldn't fade into obscurity so quickly (except for... the English versions of Blue Chicago Blues and Manhattan Requiem [sigh]). It may contain some FMV sequences (like Golden Immortal does), but I don't expect any (big?-)budget movie packed into this CD. I can't imagine Motherlode, Inc. publishing any title with a big production value (despite being a technological gem for its time, Golden Immortal is, IMHO, very. boring. Couldn't make it to the second chapter, gave up instead. I'm not patient with that.).

BTW2 - Motherlode was indeed located in Las Cruces, NM. Phone number +1-505-5244043. Likely inactive nowadays. More interesting, they published Sophisticated Santa Fe and Aloha, Hawaii! which appear to be both interactive encyclopedia on CD-ROM.
