A crash landing globe spanning adventure! From the breathtaking splendor of 1930 Asia, three strangers are about to set forsth on and adventure that will span an entire continent.

She is daughter of a ruthless American land baron, facing death somewhere in the lush mountains of central China.

He is a down-on-his-luck pilot with only three days to rescue her.

Their guide to freedom is a shadowy master of stealth and cunning from a far away land.

Together they will travel the crowded streets of Hong Kong, cross the blinding snowfields of the Himalayas and ride the fabled Orient Express... all on a journey of life, love and death that could only begin in the Heart of China.

  • Breathtaking graphics and an original stereo soundtrack bring the adventure to life.
  • A rich, detailed story unfolds through characters that think for themselves, remember your actions and challenge your every move.
  • A powerful yet easy-to-use point and click interface allows you to explore, communicate and interact without typing.



Kate, the daughter of a wealthy businessman named E.A. Lomax, is abducted by a Chinese warlord named Li Deng near Chengdu, where she was volunteering as a nurse. Lomax recruits the former World War I fighter pilot Jake "Lucky" Masters for a dangerous mission: travel to Hong-Kong, locate a mysterious ninja, and find a way to infiltrate Li Deng's fortress and rescue Kate.

Heart of China is an adventure game with a romantic theme somewhat reminiscent of films such as Raiders of the Lost Ark. The game is set during the 1930's in China as well as a few other locations. It uses a simple point-and-click system for interaction and object manipulation, and is very similar visually and gameplay-wise to Rise of the Dragon.

Some of the tasks in the game have multiple solutions, allowing the player to pursue different methods and choose different responses in branching dialogues. However, some choices may lead to the protagonist's death or bring the investigation to a dead end. There are also a few arcade sequences, which can be skipped if the player fails to complete them after several tries. The game utilizes digitized photos of live actors superimposed on hand-painted graphics.
  • Потрясающая графика и оригинальный саундтрек заставят вас по-настоящему поверить в эту удивительную историю.
  • Масштабная и проработанная история с яркими персонажами, запоминающими ваши поступки и не дающими вам расслабиться ни на секунду.
  • Удобный, простой интерфейс и управление с помощью мыши позволяет исследовать мир и взаимодействовать с ним, не набирая команды на клавиатуре.

Nostalgia

Back then, when the game was released, I was quite young and played it on my older brother's Amiga. Secretly and without his knowledge (at least that's what I believed at the time). I knew really little about games and did not even know how to call the genre. But hell, did I have fun with this! It had just the right mixture of action, fun and excitement. The puzzles were logic and not too hard, and I liked the story very much. I like stories with charming adventurers, tough women and equally mysterious and funny characters. I got all of that here. The real action sequences (for example the tank sequence which was mentioned before) were skipable, as far as I remember. This was really good. I always found them quite fun, but also hard, and I can understand how they can get annoying quickly. You travel to several pictoresk locations, meet interesting characters, experience adventures (some funny, some dramatic). There are many ways to die in this game, but you get rewarded with more than one ending depending on your gameplay and decisions. The gameplay is mostly classic point 'n click with a first-person perspective. Sometimes it is possible to play with different characters. However, the game seems a little more stiff-legged and awkward than (for example) Lucasfilm games. However, this does not bother at all. All in all, the game still looks like it was made from a single mould. The digitised images of the live actors (fun fact: the actors were mostly from the company's own employees and even their families due to a small budget) and the hand-painted sets fit together so well and create a great atmosphere. If you like classic adventure games and can handle the occasional death, I highly recommend this game. Especially for this small price here. I'm very happy to find this little gem here and have a nice little nostalgic flashback.

An exciting globe-spanning adventure!

Of the three Dynamix adventure games, ‘Heart of China’ is my favourite. It’s a globetrotting adventure with an exciting story and great pacing. I also find its puzzles and level of challenge to be most balanced, though some parts – typical of 1990s adventures games – are unfair and require plenty of trial and error. Yet to this day, I still find ‘HoC’ to be thoroughly satisfying and entertaining. In the game, you’d be travelling with a companion most of the time. At certain points, you may need to switch characters and share inventory items to solve some puzzles. While there’s usually one correct or optimal solution to these problems, the ability to make choices and swap characters adds complexity to the game. This complexity was really something back in the 1990s. Seeing the story branch off in different directions based on your choices, and having the story set in different cities around the world make ‘HoC’ feel grand. Of course, this also means there’re plenty of ways to mess up, if not die. Thankfully, the game is not very punitive, but instead offers different endings to be discovered based on your choices of dialogue and action. Because of this, ‘HoC’ is very replayable. As much as I love this game, I still can’t get over the game’s questionable portrayal of Asians after all these years. For example, although the game’s printed “travel guide” explains how your in-game Chinese partner became a ninja, it’s disrespectful and unnecessary to clump the two Asian cultures into one. The story would have worked just fine if your partner were simply a kung-fu master or a Shaolin monk. While ‘HoC’ is by no means perfect, it’s still a very fun adventure game. Your race against time has the right balance of urgency and freedom to explore; the ability to play as different characters adds freshness to a tried-and-true genre; and the globe-spanning adventure is simply exciting. ‘HoC’ is an easy recommendation to anyone who enjoys or curious about classic adventure games.

A Great P&C Game from the Past

While not in the traditional 3rd person of the best P&C, this works well, a thrilling tale with multiple branching solutions. Story is enjoyable Also the bonuses that come in this (Hint book, which has a lot of background material on the game's production) are really a nice feature. They have some arcade elements that don't age very well, however there is an option to skip those parts, a really nice feature for a 30 year old game. If you like Point and Click Adventures at all... Pick this up... but pick it up cheap, as you'll be able to finish it in an all day Saturday session.

Fun game from 30 years ago

Picked this up for about $2 and got plenty of fun out of it. Played it way back when at age 10, got frustrated I kept failing in Hong Kong and quit. Wish I'd stuck with it. Nice cheesy pulp adventure. It has a Tex Murphy/High Road to China with Tom Selleck vibe throughout, especially with the dialogue options and action comic cut scenes. Graphics are a bit rough, but I was surprised how easy it was to see which items were hot spots. Fast paced story, logical, straight-forward situational puzzles and it was neat to be able to swap characters to open up different solutions to problems. There are several plot branches which don't seem to lead to dead ends necessarily, just different scenes/paths to victory as the story progressed. There's actually a couple combat sections (one vehicle based and one character) you'll have to either grind hard to figure out through trial and error or just watch how the controls actually work on youtube, which is what I ended up doing, but you can also just skip them if you can't be bothered. I'd recommend this to anyone who loves old school point and clicks and pulp adventure, but keep in mind it's only going to be a short (2-3 hrs) afternoon of play at most, even if you go back and try some of the different branches, so judge the current price accordingly.

Most of the budget went into graphics

3 out of 5 for me! I only beat this game recently, but remember it well from my younger years, seeing it run on display computers at a local computer store. The graphics are the highlight, they used real actors, hand painted backgrounds and in the manual it is mentioned that the artwork had to be redone twice because it was challenging. They used staff and relatives mostly :) The game is actually very short. There are exotic locations: Hong Kong, Chengdu, Tibet, Istanbul, Orient Express and Paris. However Orient Express there is only a dialogue sequence and an action sequence and in Paris you arrive to see the ending, that's it. So really there are just 4 locations. Each location has a few rooms to explore, but the puzzles are quite basic. Once you know the puzzles and discuss options, the actual game is really short, I would say you can finish it in less than half an hour. I feel they realised this so they added this concept of story branches to add depth or replayability but I don't think it works well. You get this big warning about a plot branch and the manual tells you that this shows that you could have done things another way but it doesn't tell you if what you did was bad or could be done better and it doesn't tell you if you are going down a dead end, having missed an item or something like that. Reading the documentation is important to get hints for the game and it will make everything much easier. The two action sequences are annoying. They can be skipped, BUT only at the beginning. Once you try to play a sequence, you are stuck and cannot choose to skip it. You either beat it or load a save game. Save often and multiple save files! Most choices are through dialogues, sometimes you need to be polite, sometimes aggressive, there is no pattern. Some moves will cost you time and that will reduce the final amount of money you win. The romance aspect is sort of nice but also very cheesy. Good graphics but not much of a game...
