Amazon: Guardians of Eden

Amazon: Guardians of Eden is a point-and-click adventure game for MS-DOS published by Access Software in 1992. The game follows a researcher named Jason who ventures into the Amazon rainforest in search of his brother.

Amazon is heavily inspired by mid-century serial films and was compared to then-popular films such as Indiana Jones and Romancing the Stone that were also based on old serials. The game uses digitized images of real actors and sets to evoke a cinematic look and is presented as an "Access Serial" divided into serialized chapters. It also featured technical achievements for the time: Amazon is one of the first games with Super VGA graphics, digitized voice-overs, and an in-game hint system.

The game's reputation has shifted over time. Early reviewers were broadly positive and believed the game delivered a cinematic experience. Later reviewers, however, have reappraised the game and view it much more negatively.
