Production
Production
The game began to be developed in 1996 by two graphic designers and one programmer who met at school: Pavel Pekárka, Michal Pekárka, and Jan Hilgard. The musician Zdeněk Houb was added to the team as co-author of the screenplay. Work on the game initially took place at home on older PCs. Unlike other Czech adventures of the period, this one did not have a humorous element. In addition, the game was notable for having the player see the action through the player's eyes like in Asmodeus, rather than a third-person view. The developers sought inspiration from the LucasArts' series of Indiana Jones games. The game was premiered at the 1998 Invex, and entered into the JRC distribution network. It became one of the most successful Czech games.

Reception
This game was overlooked in many of the local gaming magazines such as Score and Excalibur. It sold over 1,500 units in the Czech Republic, which Future Games called "relatively enough for Czech conditions". According to Petr Ticháček of Bonusweb.cz, the title is the largest and most difficult game he had ever played.
