Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Most gaming fans know Tex Murphy as the star of Under a Killing Moon and The Pandora Directive. But the introduction to this well-written guide informs you that Tex made his first appearance in a game called Mean Streets way back in 1990. Since then the Tex Murphy games have developed into one of the most popular and successful series of adventure games around. Rick Barba's straightforward guide to Tex Murphy: Overseer walks you through the game step by step, leaving no stone unturned. The book includes a detailed list that outlines each item in the game, tells you where to find it, and explains what you can do with it. You'll also find a copy of the game's original screenplay, which offers a glimpse into the creative process behind this exceptional piece of interactive fiction. --Michael Ryan
