The 7th Guest was one of the biggest selling CD-ROM games ever made, and many cite it as a major reason for the explosion in CD-ROM drive sales around the time of its release.
The game's overall structure and objective make it nearly identical to its predecessor. The 11th Hour is innovative, though, because it includes loads of well-produced video clips that make up the game's storyline - and also because that video plays so fast at full-screen that it could be mistaken for television or movie-speed images.
It has been years since that fatal night of murders inside the hilltop mansion owned by the enigmatic but reclusive toy maker Henry Stauf. It is now 1995. Your alter ego, Carl Denning Jr, is an investigative reporter of the hit television series Case Unsolved. As the producer of your show and your lover, Robin Morales has traveled to the little town of Harley to research on a series of grisly murders and disappearances that seem to be linked to the deserted Stauf mansion. When you learn that Robin has mysteriously disappeared, you travel to Harley immediately.
Armed with a portable computer that has been delivered to you with a peculiar invitation, you set foot into the haunted mansion. Only after Carl has solved the many wicked puzzles left by Stauf before the 11th hour (with the help of the mysterious Samantha) will he gain insight into the true ordeal of the evil plans of Stauf. At the end, you must guide Carl to make one final moral decision in choosing between saving the lusty Marie, your lover Robin, or the helpful Samantha.
For Windows/DOS
WHAT YOU GET:
This auction is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the
title. If more then just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual,
etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will
be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front
and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to
verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again,
ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of
game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots
may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on
one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly
the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers
release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the
game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the
buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words
"system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for
software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...)
This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be
researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or Vista will not specifically state they will work on
that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most,
will work on XP or Vista with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased
on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will
definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For Macintosh games, most older
games will need to be run in classic mode if you have a newer MAC OS version. Please research
Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information. For DOS games, you may need to play
it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD,
floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the
needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
SHIPPING:
We typically ship all items out within 2-3 business days after payment is received. In regards to the stated shipping and handling,
remember that these costs include more than just postage. We combine shipping and handling, with each additional item after the first
just $2 more. Message us for an invoice if Ebay doesn't automatically adjust it.
International buyers not shipping to an address within the U.S. can expect their orders to take anywhere from 5 days to 4 weeks to be received, depending
on how fast/well USPS is moving. Additionally, international orders typically have to go through governmental customs, which can delay the
arrival process.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
Please message us prior to leaving negative or neutral feedback in order for us to help solve your problem.
