Dodge the mob, try to get rich in the '20s with A Golden Wake
Even the everyday man stood a chance at getting filthy rich in The Roaring Twenties, but Alfie Banks has more to worry about than earning a pile of money: namely, the mob that's after him. Point-and-click adventurers can watch Alfie's back this fall in A Golden Wake, a tale developed for PC by Grundislav Games and published by Wadjet Eye Games. Alfie's story plays out in Coral Gables, a housing development near Miami that's benefiting from the soaring real estate market. Alfie might have a chance of getting in on that housing boom, but the related press release notes the ever-present threat of hurricanes reducing waterfront properties to oceanic rubble, as well as the looming Great Depression. Between mobsters, Mother Nature and the course of history, Alfie's financial goals don't exactly seem like a cakewalk. On the bright side, at least there's swanky music to back his potential demise!
