If you enjoy detective and spy stories and games, then you might just enjoy this upcoming video game from Akella and Spline. It's called A Stroke of Fate, and guess whose fate you'll be smiting in this title: Adolf Hitler.

The game is set in Germany in the 1940s. You'll be playing as a spy-slash-detective with a mammoth mission on your shoulders. You'll have to arrange for Lieber Fuhrer's assassination (*insert collective gasp here*). To fulfill a goal like that, you'll have to be convincing in playing your role as a true patriot, especially when you're trying to get yourself into Hitler's most elite inner circle. One wrong slip and you won't want to know what the Gestapo will dish out on your sorry behind.

A Stroke of Fate is an adventure set in the genuine places and locations that were relevant back in 1940 to 1945. Players will also be able to meet the movers and shakers of the time: Hitler, Himmler, Muller, and Goebbels.

Here are the other features:

• Compelling pseudo-historical plot
• Ingenious brainteasers and quests to reflect German peculiarities of the 1940s
• Realistic graphics
• Authentic places and historically derived personalities: Muller, Goebbels, and Hitler
• You can walk along the Secret Police building and Hitler’s private study
