Having visited the castle of Versailles, I am desired to further push my curiosity from this place of.history. I buy the CD-Rom of game which the name is : VERSAILLES, plot at the court of the sun king.

I like much this game and I remake it with regular interval with always as much of pleasure. The palate in which you will move that of 1685 reconstituted very well thanks to technology 3D.

Graphics are exceptional and give impression which we visit the rooms of the true castle of Versailles.

The sound is a music but which with long tired the one but anything prevents you from cutting the music.

The music is different according to the place where you are.

In this game, all is realized to incite the gamer to visit this historical place later on.

The goal of the game is like its name to thwart a plot: to put the hand on a bomb at delayed-action which could destroy Versailles.

For that it is necessary to find satirical lampoons as well as titles of fables which will allow you at the end play, thanks to a sentence mystery, to defuse the bomb.Not to forget to take the 4 small keys.

In this play, you are “Lalande”, a boy of room and you would have only day to act then one should not trail.

”Bontemps”, first man-servant of the king, is the discussion thread of the game, that which helps, advises and also sermonizes you (Which grumpy that one when one does not find).

It’s with him that it is necessary to bring back the lampoons and the result of the various enigmas to be able to continue your investigation.

It is necessary well to look at to find it because it is often hidden in the corner of a part or of the court.

To solve this game, it is necessary to seek and take indices and also and especially to know to make speak and listen to the various characters.

Most difficult in this game is to understand what l must do if not one is quickly likely to turn in round and to discourage oneself.

But you are rewarded for your efforts when the king congratulates you personally.

In more you are entitled to a fire only for you The game proceeds in 7 acts which are the principal stages of the day of the king LOUIS XIV.

Act I: Small the rising: Only the royal family and the close friends attend the ceremonial of the rising of the king. You meet there Mr. Brun (painter of the king) and you must find a lampoon.

Act II: Rising with the consulting: The king is washed, shaved, equipped in front of courtiers. There, meets with M, the son of the king and you must thus find a lampoon on the royal line an other fable.

Act III: The mass: it’s first public appearance of the king. All the Court must itself assist.Louis XIV leads the procession to the vault for the mass. You will help “Lully” which gives you the title of a fable in return, to question Racine and request to help from Sir, the brother of the king thus with the marquis of Croissy.

Act IV: The dinner: Three services of 6 dishes each one will be .There, you will obtain 2 lampoons, one on the government.

V: The work of the king: The king works into private at Madam de “Maintenon”During this time the Court diverts itself. Meet with the Cardinal of Bubble and the father of Chaize, confessor of the king. You will gain the last title of fable there. You will have the chance to give a memorandum which will be useful for you for the continuation. Bontemps gives you the list of the found fables.

Act VI: The walk: The king visits his gardens. Meet with Our then with the duke of Maine in the labyrinth, you give the plan of the labyrinth. It is necessary to find the sentence mystery with to help a plan, fables and memorandum.

Act VII: Supper with sleeping: Who will have the privilege to hold the candlestick this evening? Last part and epilogue: It’s there that you need the keys and the sentence mystery. If all occurs well, you will have finally satisfaction to known a wonder of the French inheritance.

This play is ludic side combined at the historical side which allures me in this game.

You meet there throughout this day various characters who revolved around the sun king and you can know some more about this one thanks to the documentary cards.

The decoration is fabulous. The palate was reconstituted in 3CD One discovers there places.

You will have to be armed with patience and to show perspicacity to solve this enigme.

It’s necessary to spend many hours on this play and especially not to discourage you with the first encountered difficulties.

I hope to have given you desire for throwing a blow of with this game.

Good recreation with Versailles

Not a great translation. The biggest mistake here is the translation of "jeu" - should be "game" rather than "play". TT.
