Hi there, im searching for some localizations of a PC and PS2 game called Gift by the now defunct Cryo Interactive.
This is a rather obscure game that was never rereleased.
The game had lots of releases in different countries (especially the PC version), all of them fully translated to their languages.
Most PS2 versions can be found online (there are only 5 versions i think), except for the Italian version.
For the PC version, only a handful of them can be found online: English, Spanish, Polish and Russian.
All the other versions are lost: French, German, Italian, Czech, Hebrew, Swedish and Dutch. (Maybe there are even more out there)
For some of these versions you can find screenshots or box scans, but for others there barely anything.
Note: Some versions of the game have different titles: the German and Dutch version are called "Gifty", and the Hebrew version is called "Cosmo" (קוסמו).
Is this game called The Gift or Gift. When you search up "Cryo Interactive gift" you get gameplay videos on youtube with both titles
(UPDATE)Sypnosis: "A new game currently being tested has exhausted all the heroes who have already been assigned to rescue the beautiful princess Lolita Globo. Gift, a sneaky, overweight slob with a big mouth is the latest hero to volunteer for the job. Armed with a magic staff, his mission is to conquer The Shadow of the Black Deep Dark Night (the enemy’s leader).
In doing so, he must lead seven dwarves to our heroine (who suffers from Snow White delusions) in seven totally mad worlds crammed with parodies of famous games and films.
Each of the seven worlds is inhabited by unsuspecting danger. Our relentless hero must do battle, solve puzzles, be resourceful and constantly test his abilities to survive and ultimately conquer the opposing dark forces. The seven worlds are Tiptanic, Alcatraz, Star Stress, Drakuland, Iceland, Paztec and Mine of Horror.
Each world is led by one of the seven dwarves, who each have their own idiosyncratic personalities - from lust, envy, anger, laziness, miser, greed and vanity. The dwarfs provide clues as to where Gift can find the lovely Lolita. The objective is to collect the seven dwarfs from the seven different worlds and surround them around the lovely princess in the eight and final world. In so doing, Gift will be able to rescue his true love from the clutches of The Shadow of the Black Deep Dark Night."
