Iron Roses is a point-and-click adventure game from Cateia Games Company. The main character of the game is Alex, not very successful musician who is trying to raise some money to pay her bills. Members of her former band decided that Iron Roses project will never be popular, so they all left it. Now Alex wants to unite the band for the last performance, the battle of bands, and if it works out, who knows, maybe Alex will become a famous rock-star. Your mission here is to help Alex track ex-band members.

The game takes place in a big city with lots of different locations, like clubs, music stores, Internet cafes, restaurants and so on. Alex can use taxi to roam around them looking for her musicians and gathering instruments and equipment necessary for the last gig. If you and Alex get lost while wandering in the city, you can always use a hint to find out what to do next. If you press the Enter button, the game shows you the nearest exit from current location.

The game offers you a great variety of tasks to perform, from zapping computer viruses to playing a rudimentary rhythm game on the guitar. This rich gameplay is diversified by well-written dialogues and colorful animations. Anyway, Iron Roses can’t be called the most addictive game of the genre, but it will certainly find its fans cause of her original musical theme. Enjoy playing!
