Game companies have been turning to books a lot more recently for material, a good thing.

Merscom announced today it is the online publisher of Time Stand Still, the popular adventure game developed by MDNA Games, and will also be publishing the fifth Carol Reed adventure title, Colour of Murder, later this year. Released over the weekend on a major casual game portal, Time Stand Still follows on Merscom~s success with Blood Ties, Ghost in the Sheet, East Side Story, Remedy and My Farm, all of which were launched earlier this year and reached the top-10 on major casual game sites. Merscom is also publishing Time Stand Still at retail in Germany and Russia.

Time Stand Still is the third in the popular Carol Reed adventure series. Join Carol, a young English woman in her twenties, who now lives in Sweden. Carole stumbles on a new case while browsing through a local newspaper. A seemingly haunted house leads her to a complicated chain of events, which go all the way back to World War II. The events include an unsolved murder from 60 years ago, secret love and characters long forgotten by history (but not by fate).
