Of all the three Margrave Manor, this is the best of the three. Not too hard, a easy play. Didn't mind replaying any of the scenes since you weren't looking for the same objects each time. Recommend this for a beginner.

I recommend this game!

I like the Margrave series. This is the 2nd installment and shows how the game progressed as games moved from HOS to using cut scenes, voice over, and other types of puzzles. The story is interesting and is still told through notes, letters and newspaper clippings as well as what Edwina and Tom adds. The puzzles are not difficult. The graphics are good. I do recommend all 4 games in this series. ...Show more

I loved the game-the storyline could have been a little better-but overall-amazing!

I especially loved the music. When I was in college, I would actually open the game and keep on the menus screen just to listen to the bell ring while I was studying. Anyway I could get a soundtrack of the music? ;P or at least download the music for the game

I recommend this game!

The thing I like best about this game is that the list of objects to find scrolls along the bottom of the scene. Mostly only a few letters of the next object are visible (until you remove another from the list), so I have fun trying to guess what it is.
Mini games, mostly putting together cut up letters, are nice and the storyline revealed in the letters held my interest.

I recommend this game!

This is part of the Margrave series, the first being a standard HOG (one of the better ones) and the last two superb adventure games. This one is more like the first. HOS after HOS, and having to replay the same scenes (which can get a bit boring)

The reward is piecing up what happened to the lost ship, from writing left by the crew. It turns into a grim story of greed and murder that grabs at you. It is worth all the HOS to learn it.

When they developed the subsequent games, they kept the gripping narrative but upped the graphics and added orginal gameplay.

In any case, it is good to see more of Edwina Margrave. Show less

I recommend this game!

- and gradually got boring. It's okay , but it's long and drawn out and repetitive . Some games I play over and over , but not this one. I already know where everything is hidden.

I don't recommend this game.

I played the original 'The Secret of Margrave Manor' game, and found it not to be a very good HOG because the objects were too small and there weren't enough different rooms, so I tried this game, the sequel, and in this game, the objects are bigger, but on the 'Lost Ship', there are even less scenes and not enough objects to make it challenging. You go around and around in the 12 scenes, and ...Show more

The scenes are not even scenes--just objects against and black backdrop.
Boring story.
Irritating sounds.
The only thing fun is a few simple puzzles.

I don't recommend this game.

Okay, I was forewarned, but I got the game anyway. Big mistake. The storyline is okay, but you have to wade through room after room after room etc. of hidden object scenes to get to the end of the tale. This wouldn't be too bad, but the scenes are the same, just slightly rearranged. I like HOS, but not to this extent. Some variation would have been appreciated.

"Margrave: The Blacksmith's Daughter", is a much better game. Go directly to it and skip this one. Show less

This game is very heavy on finding hidden objects. Fairly simple plot..

Mixed quality graphics. Some graphics are clear/sharp, but many hidden objects are of low quality and are blurry.

This game is very heavy on finding hidden objects. Fairly simple plot..

Mixed quality graphics. Some graphics are clear/sharp, but many hidden objects are of low quality and are blurry.

Far too much re-visiting previously searched areas to find more hidden objects.

Most hidden objects were relatively easy to find.

Had to search six locations every time before finding the next key or clue to finishing the game at the last location. Limited number of locations available, and limited number of hidden objects made the task tiresome/monotonous/boring.

There were the occasional spot the difference, assemble torn up letter/note, and solving/opening box puzzles, but these tended to be repetitive and boring also.

Could hardly wait to finish this game and move on to another one with less hidden objects and more adventure/plot.

Suitable for those who like just searching for hidden objects.

Game is not really suitable for those who prefer a little more adventure, more plot, and more variety, like myself.

Overall not a good game. Show less

I don't recommend this game.
