It is no secret that I am a retro kind of guy, I have this love for the simpler times when you didn’t need to spend more on computer hardware than you did on your car to enjoy games (some may call me cheap, that is their choice). BOH, a game that is simply amazingly cool and interesting in ways that games today simply aren’t has just been updated, for full details check out the press release below.
With BOH, you get a new game that hearkens back to the times of cleaner graphics (when something is on screen, there is not much need to think about it being an enemy or a power up for instance). Play BOH with the lights out, no TV in the background, just you and BOH with the sound at a comfortable level and just enjoy it. You won’t be sorry, you might even come out a little scared but will most definitely be turning on the lights, not only because of that feeling you get from BOH but to also find your credit card to make a purchase. BOH is that good.

Campobasso, Italy – January 26th, 2010

Today sees the release to update9, which:

* re-adds trembling to fixed lights;
* improves video modes suggestions by indicating also the optimal zoom factors;
* forces recalculation of global time also when 0:00;
* retouches themes;
* improves missions “getting started” and “unequal alternatives”;

* updates the manuals;
* applies various other changes.
The update can be downloaded for free from the DOWNLOADS page of the official website at www.bohthegame.com.
The demos have been updated to reflect the changes.

About BOH
BOH is an original, retro-flavoured game of exploration and action.
You move in claustrophobic, traps-packed, mind-boggling battlefields searching for the Evil Masters, who throw countless enemies at you until you discover and face them in the final battle. Although your quests are made slightly less hard by the bonuses and power-ups scattered all around, carrying out the missions demands lots of concentration and quick reflexes.
With BOH the fun never ends: new missions can be added anytime and you can even create your own! And, as if that was not enough, you can also customize entirely its audio-visual aspect!
BOH has been created with lots of passion and care to offer, with its oldschool style, a fascinatingly different videogaming experience.
