Secret Files: Tunguska
by Deep Silver
Walkthrough by MaGtRo October 2006
Gameplay: The game I played came in a DVD-ROM disk. It is a point and click mouse controlled game. At the start frame, a configure selection is present. Here you can change resolution, display and software cursor settings. The Main Menu has New Game, Load Game, Options, Credits and Quit. The Options menu has selections for music, sound, shadow, subtitles, video quality and game help settings.
The inventory bar is at the bottom of the screen. The gameplay controls are found right of the inventory bar. The computer accesses the gameplay menu. The diary has the important events that have been done and the magnifying glass for gameplay help in identifying active spots and exits. The game help can also be activated by the space bar if that option was selected at the Options menu. A picture can also be seen at lower right sometime during the game. Clicking on a picture changes the main character to that depicted character.
Note: If you turned on the hints under options, use the magnifying glass (search scene) at bottom right of screen to see active items and exits in that gameplay screen. Double click on the exits will change the screen faster to the next scene. Left mouse click is for pickup or use and right mouse click is for identification.
This walkthrough is just one sequence of gameplay. Some events in a location can be done in any order.
On June 30, 1908, an object streaking through the sky was observed. A few minutes later, several explosions were heard in the mountains of central Siberia. On March 27, 2006, Vladimir Kalenkov working in his office notices the door opening. He exits and sees footprints on the floor. He follows it to the window. Someone invisible attacks him.
