Haunted Hotel Lost Dreams is the 16th game in the series – a series I had hoped would die out long ago but now I am not too sure because this latest game is terrific. The game begins as you and your wife Jane are traveling by train on your way to a vacation in the Swiss Alps, when suddenly the train goes off the rails. You awaken in the hotel thinking it might have been a nightmare but Jane is nowhere to be found. It doesn’t take you long to know that something is very wrong. Will you be able to free yourself and Jane from this hotel, or is it already too late? You will need to play this wonderful new Haunted Hotel to find the answers to those questions and find out what sinister intent is hidden in this Haunted Hotel.

If you have read many of my reviews you might guess that I am not a big fan of the Haunted Hotel series. In fact, I didn't play or review the last two games in the series because I didn’t care for the demos at all. I hate dusty dirty interiors for graphics as I simply don’t find them appealing in any way. That being said, I almost didn’t bother to try the demo of Lost Dreams but I am so happy that I did. IMHO, this is one of the best Haunted Hotel games in years. Although the game begins in a seemingly deserted hotel, the interiors are in amazingly good shape. I found Lost Dreams a delight to play with great HOPS and absolutely wonderful puzzles. In fact for me, the puzzles are one of the best parts of this game. A couple of the puzzles were really tough for me and the others had varying levels of challenge but I only skipped one puzzle that I couldn’t figure out

I love everything about this game with only one minor comment that I choose to make about the Custom game setting. I think it is time that the developers start offering a “true” custom setting where we can choose to set our own hint and skip times as low as we wish to set them. I personally dislike having to wait 15 seconds or whatever other low-end limit the developer might think we need. Please developers consider allowing a true custom time limit for hints and skips.

The HOPS are very good with the standard list type being the first scene we encounter in the game. That scene is soon followed by a variety of others but they are all excellent even if they are what we see in most games from this developer. Where this game becomes excellent for me is with the puzzles that I really loved. The first puzzle is very easy and involves sliding tokens into the correct slots. The next puzzle was a bit more challenging because I had a difficult time reading the symbols that were on top of each other. The 3rd puzzle is a memory puzzle and that was more challenging until I figured out the “trick”. The puzzles became a bit more difficult with a door puzzle that I did skip because I really didn’t “get” it.

The CE version of the game offers a total of 40 morphing object and 20 picture parts to find. There are achievements to earn and the other standard fare such as 10 Wallpapers, 10 Concept Artwork, 4 Screensavers, 4 Music Tracks, Memory Elements, Picture Parts, Replay of 12 Mini-games and 15 HOPS, the Secret Room, a Bonus Chapter, and a 40-page Strategy Guide. The game has 5 Chapters and a Bonus Chapter.

As I mentioned earlier I did not play the previous two games in the series but Haunted Hotel Lost Dreams is one I purchased and have been playing for the past few hours. For me it is a long game but I am a slow player savoring each scene in as I move forward. You already know by now that I love this game and I hope you will as well. As always, please try the demo to see what you think of Haunted Hotel Lost Dreams. Happy Gaming! Show less

I recommend this game!

I have been playing the hidden object games for a few years, and I tend to gravitate toward the more disturbing games. Haunted Hotel: Lost Dreams CE gets your adrenaline pumping. You start out as a security detail, but the situation goes sideways and now your job is to find your way to the Professor, rescue him and then escape.

I have been playing the hidden object games for a few years, and I tend to gravitate toward the more disturbing games. Haunted Hotel: Lost Dreams CE gets your adrenaline pumping. You start out as a security detail, but the situation goes sideways and now your job is to find your way to the Professor, rescue him and then escape.

The storyline has a great flow to it (and this is only after playing the demo), and as you find objects, they relate to either something nearby or in a previous screen. Morphing objects, puzzle pieces and multi-puzzle puzzles are a large part of the game.

Another gem from Elephant Games! Show less

The Haunted Hotel series is one of my favorites. The game isn't as gruesome as other entries in the series; so those bothered by gore aren't likely to be disturbed about this one. The artwork was beautiful and and the music fitting. The storyline seemed a bit familiar to me, having played so many of these types of games int he past. I managed to get all the collectibles and puzzle pieces, I just missed a few morphing objects- I wish they would let us go back at the end and look for them. All in all I recommend this game to fans of the series; but don't expect to find James in this one. Those who haven't played any of the Haunted Hotel games I think this is a good one to start with--it doesn't have any connection to any of the characters in the other games. Show less

I enjoyed this game. It started off slow and uninteresting, however, as I continued, I really got into it. It's a keeper.

I loved this game but I do miss James, I hope he's in the next one. I enjoyed the mini puzzles and hidden objects scenes and I absolutely love collectables! Excellent graphics and music, I really enjoyed this game! I'm looking forward to the next Haunted Hotel - more games like this please!

Definitely the best one of the entire series! The big hotel layout brings new challenges and as the lead character, forces a new level of attention to detail. Otherwise, answers to puzzles will be missed!! Fun, fun and fun!
