“We decided to delay the launch of Belief & Betrayal to early 2008 to further polish the game. High quality voiceovers are especially critical in an Adventure game, therefore we invested more time in carefully casting the best actors who could bring out the individuality and believability of each character,” said Erik Schreuder, CEO of Lighthouse Interactive. “Belief & Betrayal offers an amazing gaming experience with strong gameplay features. For instance, to solve the mystery, players must take on the role of 3 different characters. Belief & Betrayal was released in France, Germany, Austria and Switzerland to critical acclaim, and our goal is to continue this success into English speaking territories, bringing Adventure gamers an experience they will thoroughly enjoy.”
