adventure game developed byAdvance Reality Interactive and published byAny River Entertainment onFebruary 28 ,1997 ."A Fork in the Tale" stars the voice of comedian
Rob Schneider as a protagonist who finds himself in the land of Eseveron. The player must watch numerous video sequences and click on certain icons at specific times to proceed, all in an effort to figure out what is happening and how to escape. The game draws a heavy influence fromDon Bluth 's "Dragon's Lair " games and features Bay Area actors Dale Morris, Fred Smith, Michael Ronin Orlando, Eric Carlson, Kaliopi Eleni, Jett, Pamela Herron and Jody Mortara among the fifty plus roles. Because of the large number of video sequences, the game was originally released on 5CD s.The game was a commercial failure and publisher Any River Entertainment closed its doors just before the game's original release, cementing "AFitT"'s status as a major flop. Digital Leisure included "A Fork in the Tale" among the games (the "
Dragon's Lair " and "Space Ace " series being the marquee titles) but never released it.External links
