Lighthouse Interactive announced that Dead Mountaineer’s Hotel, their shocking ‘whodunit’ mystery adventure game for Windows, will be releasing in Q1 2009. Originally scheduled to release this year, they have decided to extend the production schedule in order to further polish the game. Dead Mountaineer’s Hotel is a character-driven, non-linear game with multiple endings, inspired by award winning Russian sci-fi novelists, the Strugatsky Brothers. Players must solve the astonishing murder of one of the hotel’s guests and unveil the startling secrets surrounding the mystical Dead Mountaineer’s Hotel.

“Dead Mountaineer’s Hotel is a game with a wonderfully intricate plot. It is very important for us to ensure that we meet the expectations of the Adventure community by marrying a great story with fun gameplay and quality voiceovers. The additional production time will allow us to further polish the game and deliver a great experience,” said Steve Wall, V.P. Business Development at Lighthouse Interactive.
