'Aurora – The Secret Within'

Bath, 5th July, 2007 - Lexicon Entertainment, a premier publisher and distributor of interactive entertainment software for video game console systems and personal computers world-wide, is pleased to announce the signing of Aurora - The Secret Within for PC.

In the late 1940s and early 1950s the name Roswell sparked great interest in the press and with the general public and even in 2007 is still a topic that creates media coverage.

Aurora - The Secret Within, explores this great theme, was it fact or is it fiction!?

The Facts

The American military have released ground-breaking news: a flying saucer has crashed near Roswell. The statement is promptly withdrawn, but the media are not to be fooled. While this stunning event is frantically broadcast over the radio waves, Detective Pileggi becomes involved in a mysterious case regarding the disappearance of a local farmer.

During the course of the investigation, he will discover that everything he has believed to be true throughout his life is nothing but an illusion. His world is shattered into pieces. Will our detective be able to solve the mystery hidden within Aurora?

"Aurora - The Secret Within" is a classic 'point and click' adventure, immersing the player in a world of puzzles and mysteries just waiting to be solved.

Tale Context

The Pentagon always made people believe (even if not openly) that Area 51 has been hiding projects about supersonic airplanes and alien technologies.
