I had no complaints about this game. It was fun to play and it was long enough for me. I prefer games that progress at a regular pace rather than be overwhelmed by endless HOP's, minigames and too many rooms to search and too many tasks to complete.

This game is the final Haunted Hotel in the series, it be the 20th game in the series. I had recently just got into these games after knowing they exist for years and I've played loads of them in order as I don't have the time to play all of them.

This game is the final Haunted Hotel in the series, it be the 20th game in the series. I had recently just got into these games after knowing they exist for years and I've played loads of them in order as I don't have the time to play all of them. I played the Collector's Edition of the game but most people seem to wait until the standard comes out on sale. I LOVED Lost Time, I thought it was interesting from start to finish. All these games focus on a...Haunted Hotel. I maybe have played 10 of these games and about 4 I actually enjoyed. Phoenix for example, I didn't like. It felt more like a Mystery Trackers game. I think 18,19 and 20 are the definitive ones as they tie up this long going series but I wouldn't hate this game because of the length because It really seems they tried to end this series well.

I recommend this game!

Completed Game less than 4 hours
(including completion of all mini-games & CE Bonus Chapter)
9 Main Game Scene Locations +4 Bonus Chapter
Difficulty Range: Beginner

This isn't a dreadful game, had it been just another Haunted Hotel game I may have given this game 4-stars. But it isn't just another Haunted Hotel game, it is the FINAL game of the series and we deserved more! This is the 20th game in the series, and for those of us who were avid fans and purchased the entire 20 game series, we were shafted. Elephant Games had a duty to give us something spectacular for the final game in the Haunted Hotel series, instead, they gave us an average game, surely not befitting of this beloved series? Elephant Games may not care about Haunted Hotel anymore but I did and we all deserved Elephant's best attempt.

It is abundantly clear that Elephant Games no longer cares, their heart just isn't in it anymore. Perhaps it's because they are struggling financially, or perhaps they are ditching HOPAs altogether. Either way, we deserved more! Did they slap this game together on purpose as a Final Game in the saga to assure that no other developer would be able to continue their Haunted Hotel legacy? If that is the case, then I see their point to a certain degree (even though they didn't actually start the series, just games 5-20)

If they slapped it together because they are struggling financially, then shame on them! I understand businesses struggling during a Covid crisis, but I don't understand why they felt the need to offer subpar, or anything at all if they were struggling? They could have easily revisited this series when things picked back up, a game with the quality we know they are capable of! This may sound selfish, but we remained loyal to Elephant Games and they had an obligation to give us their best, or nothing at all! Instead of hanging their head high as they peaced-out, they now have to hang their head in shame for not only what they gave us, but also for what they didn't give us!

☽☾Morphing Objects/Collectibles: (CE version only)☼
There are only 13 Morphing Character Photos that morphed into objects that looked so out of place you couldn't help but notice them! They morph way too fast, the objects are ridiculously large, they offer no challenge whatsoever, so what's the point? Does anyone else remember how challenging Elephant Games Morphing Objects used to be? I sure do miss that Elephant Games quality! There are also 20 Zoom Zone Puzzle Fragments which create 4 Screensavers, no assembly required.

◔Hidden Object Scenes◕
There are only 9 Hidden Object Scenes +4 in the CE Bonus Chapter, and a handful of smaller Zoom Zone HO's. These were some of the lamest HO's I've seen in a long time. Clearly, no effort whatsoever was spent in their creation because I was able to find every item without ever looking at the list, yea, they were that obvious! There are Interactive List Finds, Silhouetted Shape Finds, Keywords in Sentence Finds, and a single Swatch Find where you find the exact area that matches circular token swatch examples shown. They were super-simplistic and very boring and unfortunately, there were no alternate games available.

♙Mini-Games♙
There are 16 Mini-Games +5 in the CE Bonus Chapter. Although I didn't hate any of the puzzles, I really felt that Elephant Games should have come up with something epic for the finale of such an amazing series. Here are some of the games you'll encounter:

1-Turn labyrinth sections to create a path.
2-Connect the Dots in sequential order...really?
4-Use directional arrows to dodge ghostly apparitions.
5-First, pull the key that will allow the green & white fog to mix, then pull the remaining keys in the correct order to allow James to escape.
6-Move buttons to all slots by using other buttons as bumpers.
7-Press piano keys to toggle the colors until only the 2 squares are green.

✯Bonus Chapter (Collector's Edition version only)✯
Holy Haunted Hotel, it looks like the Ghostly Ship has set sail without you! Your days of haplessly haunting hotels may be behind you but it appears that you didn't get the otherworldly memo on how to cross over correctly. Who ya gonna call? James Blackthorne of course! This is a very short chapter that takes place over a measly 4 scene locations (the same Hotel Scenes as the main game) with just 4 Hidden Object Scenes and 5 Mini-Games. You will complete the collection of the final 4 Morphing Character Photos, and 5 Zoom Zone Puzzle Fragments to complete the fourth and final Screensaver.

♕Collector's Edition Extra's♕
5 Wallpapers, 0 Concept Art Pictures, 5 Music Soundtracks, 20 Achievements, 12 Replayable Mini-Games,12 Hidden Object Scenes, 13 Morphing Character Photos, 20 Screensaver Puzzle Pieces to create 4 Screensavers, a Secret Room (Return to Scenes to Locate HO Objects-timed) Expedition Room (return to scenes to pick up any missed Collectibles) 3 Main Chapters +Bonus Chapter, and a Built-In Strategy Guide.

One - I have 90 mins for a demo and finish in 35. Why offer that long if that's all you're going to give me? I skipped one game (the dodging spirits one). I do wonder what happened at the end of the game (since it's the last one) but I'm not about to drop my cash on it. Games are expensive now (used to cost me 8.99 now 11.25 (with discount) more otherwise. I can't afford to waste my money or time ...Show more

Games are expensive now (used to cost me 8.99 now 11.25 (with discount) more otherwise. I can't afford to waste my money or time on such rubbish.

Also, why would the gold bird to open my bag be welded to a lantern at a hotel I 'have never visited before'? Why??? How did I pack the blooming thing? The HOPs were predictable, and like others have said it's so easy my three-year-old could do it. I still love the developers graphics but if this is the end of Haunted Hotel (and I have all the others), I'd probably be disappointed if I paid for this.

Sorry guys, better luck next time. Show less

I don't recommend this game.

I have played most of the other haunted hotels and this one was a disappointment, I couldn't believe it ended so soon. Glad it was on a daily special
