You control Gabriel with the mouse driven point-and-click interface standard in most graphic adventures. First, they advance the plot as Gabriel's dreams grow stranger and more disturbing with each successive night and second, they provide a nice sense of accomplishment from one phase of the game to the next. The daily breaks are nice for two other reasons as well. Within each day is a good deal of flexibility but like any good story, some things simply must happen before others. Sins of the Fathers spans the course of several days of action, with night falling when you have completed certain requisite actions and learned enough information to advance the story. The mystery only grows in intensity with each passing chapter. As the web of intrigue grows deeper and deeper, you will find yourself wondering who to trust and who to fear. Strange stuff but only the beginning of this extraordinarily well crafted story. It's not long before Gabriel is pulled into the investigation.ĭesperate for answers, he only stumbles upon more questions when he discovers that he is the last in an ancient line of shattenjaegers, or Shadow Hunters - those destined to fight a never-ending battle against the supernatural forces of evil.

The game opens as Gabriel awakens from another night of disturbing dreams, all of which bear a frightening similarity to the voodoo-style killings filling the morning newspaper. You play Gabriel Knight, a struggling writer researching the local voodoo culture for an as-yet-unwritten novel. Set against a backdrop of several bizarre ritual murders in the city of New Orleans, Sins of the Fathers is one of the most rich and engrossing graphic adventures to ever hit the shelves.

Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers is the first installment in Sierra Online's popular series of supernatural adventures collectively known as the Gabriel Knight Mysteries.
