Gray Matter

Gray Matter is the first new full size adventure game by the famous adventure author Jane Jensen since the release of Gabriel Knight 3. Staying true to the Jensen-style, the story interweaves gruesome incidents and supernatural events.
Neurobiologist Dr. David Styles is one of the main characters in the game. Ever since losing his wife in a terrible car accident many years ago, he has become a recluse, leaving his English mansion Dread Hill House only on rare occasions.
Vagabond and street artist Samantha Everett shows up on his doorstep unexpectedly, at a time when Styles just happens to be looking for a new assistant. Originally from America, she has been travelling Europe for the last few years, and is in desperate need of a job and place of refuge. Her first assignment involves finding six volunteers for an experiment planned by Dr. Styles at Oxford University.
Title: Gray Matter
Publisher: Mamba Games
Developer: Tonuzaba
Genre: Adventure

Plot :
Gray Matter is a point-and-click adventure game with supernatural themes. Dr. David Styles is a neurobiologist and widower who have isolated himself from the rest of the world after the death of his wife. Eventually, Dr. Styles hires an assistant, street magician Samantha Everett. Rather than the cooking, cleaning, or bookkeeping duties of the average personal assistant, Samantha is charged with tasks like finding test subjects for Dr. Styles' experiments. Eventually, everything takes a dark turn, and Samantha has to figure out what's really going on in the home of Dr. Styles.
In the game, you alternate between controlling Dr. Styles and controlling Samantha. Each character has special abilities that are required to solve certain puzzles. For example, Samantha is a street magician, so she can use sleight of hand to solve puzzles.
According to the publisher, the visuals in Gray Matter consist of 3D characters against 2D backgrounds. One of the concept images shows a detailed and seemingly innocuous bedroom of Samantha. In another concept render, you can see a high level of detail in the facial structure and texturing of one of the male characters in the game
