Yeli Orog - a game inspired by Myst that I made

For years I imagined making a completely FMV (full motion video) version of Myst. Last year I finally got around to figuring out how to make the game mechanics work (slide show setup like Myst but with videos and 3D sound), and little by little put together Yeli Orog. The story in Yeli Orog is not related to the Myst universe but the gameplay mechanics take a lot of inspiration from Myst. The game takes place in Asturias, Spain and was filmed in various locations there.

Yeli Orog is a FMV adventure game about an immense archaeological discovery: A bizarre stone tablet written in the Celtiberian language found buried underneath an ancient dolmen in northern Spain. The inscription written on the tablet tells a ghoulish tale believed to be the Celtiberian origin myth.

You play the role of Johnny Robin, an archaeologist sent to Asturias, Spain to assist in the recovery of Celtiberian remains. Upon arrival to Asturias you find yourself unexpectedly transported to an alien world, experiencing first-hand the terrifying story written on the ancient tablet.


If you are fan of Myst-like games, interactive stories with puzzle elements, and FMV games, I think you will appreciate Yeli Orog. If you have any questions about the game or how it was made let me know.

Here is the steam page, the game will be released on July 13th:

Most games these days have graphic and audio options you can set to your preference.

Also, a way to save your game versus starting over from the beginning... Just a few things I have issues with.
