Fire within? He should probably see a doctor about that.

During our trip to Nordic Games, Stephen and I were shown the sequel to the adventure game Jack Keane, subtitled The Fire Within. Unlike the serious game they have in development, Raven, Jack Keane is a humorous adventure title; a parody of Indiana Jones that includes multiple references to popular culture as well as other adventure games such as the Monkey Island series.

The game is a "fast paced" adventure game, meaning that a lot of the scenarios revolve around more action-like scenes. The story will take place in many interesting locales, including Psychonauts-like areas where Jack delves into the subconscious mind. In addition, Jack will be forced to play peacemaker between two girls who are pivotal to the game's story. Combat in the game will revolve around humorous stances one can learn in order to defeat enemies.

Jack Keane 2 is slated for release in September.
