A lot of moving around with many, many locations but logical movement.
Music appropriate, imaginative and not intrusive.
Hint refills at a good pace.
Mini games are challenging but not difficult with some thought.
Skip button available for mini games.
No real penalty, just a warning, for over clicking.
Long game play. Took me 6+ hours with only minor interuption.
Full screen, wide screen, sound, effects and cursor options.
Not one negative other than I was sorry when it ended.
Definitely an enjoyable experience!

I was minutes into this game when I decided it was going to rate 5 stars in MY book - and that hadn't changed by the end! No noticeable glitches in play, runs well!

Lovely graphics and objects are appropriate to the place and feel of the game. The story is interesting and unfolds nicely as you go & each character has a very distinct personality & they tie into each other's lives.

Lots of HO scenes, which I like & some very unique puzzles too. Starts out pretty straight forward & linnear - but you sure need to use your thinking cap in some spots during the game - so a nice level of challenge & good hint system when you just flat run out of ideas!

Kept me interested and engaged throughout - happy gaming!! Show less

A good HOG. The HOS were just the right level, where a couple were quite tricky but I managed not to use a hint. The game itself was quite tricky in places and had me going round in circles, but if you have the patience and hover the mouse over every inch of every page you WILL find what you need. I really enjoyed it and would thoroughly recommend it.

I recommend this game!

If you are like me and like your HOGs with a nice balance of EVERYTHING this games for you.The Storyline and Characters were interesting, the game had a very good flow. No bugs. The Hint button was very efficient ( I like the way it would give you a clue on where to go next if you weren't in the right location, in an indirect manner, causing you to think).

Despite thinking it was a little too dark at first, I Loved it! I wanna play part 2. Show less

I loved this game. The plot had unexpected moments which delightfully surprised me. First time with BF games.Graphics might not be HD but HO are not eyes straintening. I felt I was exploring places and not a continuous basement.

The Elixir of Immortality is exactly what you are trying to find whilst trying to catch a murderer and endeavouring to prevent him striking again and finally escape this treacherous and mysterious island. The music is pleasing and easy to listen to, there are no voice overs and you don't get bogged down in excessive dialogue. The graphics are bright and colourful and detailed, in some places just a tad dark. There is quite a bit of moving around and backtracking but I think this added to the mystery and excitement of the game - not expecting what is about to happen next. The diary indicated the tasks at hand and sometimes where to go. The puzzles and minigames were very reasonable and not too troublesome but some did require a bit of extra thought. The hidden objects were colourful and ranged from quite simple to find through to some being tricky and requiring a hint or two. There were a couple of places where the walk through blog was needed but when it was consulted it was only then I realised how elementary it was after all. A very good game, I enjoyed it. Show less

I liked the music - it was appropriate for the story - and what a story - liked the 'twists'.
You have a 'Task Journal' that tells you what you need to do - so basically this game is fun not mind boggling. I really enjoyed playing it and was sorry when it ended. Show less

In this story an undercover detective is sent to a desolate island to find out who is murdering the handymen hired by the castle master. Finding the culprit kept our detective busy using his skillful techniques to solve the mystery, I thought this was an excellent game from start to finish. The storyline was very good and held my interest all the way to it's appropriate ending which was not abrupt and actually made sense, unlike so many dumb endings I have seen.

There were few characters and no speaking except for an occasional grunt from whoever the detective had to visit. The written dialogue was not overwhelming and should be read for extra bits of guidance with your tasks. There is a helpful journal and the hint system worked well in a different sort of way, I really enjoyed the games which were medium to difficult and I say difficult because some became tedious. There are game instructions and all can be skipped. The HOPs were a good challenge, just what I like.

The graphics were clear, good color. The scenery was pretty basic and navigation was easy. There was no map, not long distances to cover. The characters were done well artistically, considering the simplistic overall style of the game. I liked the looks of everything, each scene was interesting and had a dismal feel.

This game is not what I expected but I was surprised at how fun and engrossing it was for not having all the frills of the newer games that are available today.

God Bless.... Show less
