Secret Files: Tunguska is a classic graphic adventure - based on the true Tunguska phenomenon.
With her father kidnapped, the car destroyed and half her house devastated, Nina Kalenkow has seen better days. Since the police apparently can't help her, the 25 year old Nina is going to search for her father with the help of journalist Max Gruber. But who actually are her foes? What do the men in black coats want from her father? Why is the KGB suddenly interested in her? The answers to her questions seem to lie in the past, in the events of 30th July 1908 when in the Siberian region of Tunguska an inferno of flames turned everything into debris and ashes. The science is still puzzling today - was it a meteor impact, a nuclear explosion or perhaps there is something true to the rumours of a UFO?
The search for answers leads Nina and Max across the globe, to Ireland, Cuba, Russia, China, the Antartic and underground Berlin. They will have to discover that friends soon turn into foes and that in the end there is more that comes into play than loosing their lives.

This game is yet another in the point and click genre that seems to have been pretty unnoticed. If you're wanting something in that style, go for this. Graphics are gorgeous, gameplay puzzles can be a bit irritating, but never overly so. Great game. It also runs well on my four-five year old rig.
A very good game in the tradition of Broken Sword!!! I thoroughly enjoyed this game and would highly recommend it to anyone who likes a point and click type of puzzle adventure game! There are not enough of these kind of games these days!!!
Echoing the sentiment of others, it's rare to find a good point & click game these days. I fondly remember playing Broken Sword 1 & 2.
The graphics in Secret Files: Tunguska are acceptable by anybody's standards. They really do help build an atmosphere. The script is actually quite interesting, reminds me in a strange way of a Clive Cussler novel without the nautical elements! The whole storyline centres on the events of 1908 when an explosion occurred in the skies over Tunguska - now people are going missing, strange hooded figures, the Russian secret service and all you want to do is find your father.
The only downside I experienced was the voice acting which isn't very good. Halfway through a sentence the voice can change in pitch entirely. I'm looking forward to the 2nd installment.
Nowadays point&click adventures are very rare, and it is also very difficult to find one of this quality.
Graphically the game looks gorgeous and the story is very interesting too: It keeps you stuck on the chair and you won't stop playing until you've finished the game.
The only down points are that there's some pixel hunting (but fortunately you can click on an icon in order to mark the hot spots of the scene) and some puzzles are a bit "extravagant" (in fact I solved them with the "try&see" method thanks to the fact that the interface/object management is not so complicated).
In conclusion, if you are a fan of adventure games you must absolutely buy this game!
ive been a avid 3rd person point and click fan since the early 90s so ive played some real stinkers broken sword 1/2 and gabrial knight set the standard for me. this is a brilliant game best ive played in a long time.
