Benoît Sokal's classic returns in 2024
Amerzone – The Explorer's Legacy comes from comic artist and developer Benoît Sokal. Amerzone was Sokal's first video game. The artist's Syberia series is probably better known. In addition, Sokal also worked on the games Paradise from 2006 and Sinking Island from 2007. The fourth part of the Syberia series, The World Before, was published in 2022 around a year after the artist's death.
