With its distinctive humorous tone, stylish black and white look, and decidedly odd cast of characters, Carte Blanche is shaping up to be a unique game. After all, how many other games can you name that feature, as described by Carte Blanche’s official Web site, a secretary that “loves her reptile like her own child” or gangster brothers that “part only in absolute necessity to urinate or copulate”? Carte Blanche could bring the adventure genre some unique ideas and throw in a strange, twisted universe to boot. This is a game you might want to keep on your radar.
