Love the ERS games and this one doesn’t disappoint. This is a well-developed storyline with premium class gameplay. 3 modes of play: casual, advanced and hard – you can change modes at any time during the game. Widescreen available. You have a diary which includes notations from outside the game play – an improvement over those diaries that just retell exactly what you already discovered without other details. Separate level selectors for voice, sound and music.

Location graphics are superb and interesting – beautifully conceived and executed details. HOS are crisp and clear. Puzzles are varied, interesting, and a pleasure to solve. The narrator that announces the ERS games should have a voice-over role occasionally - very pleasant to listen to. The music is not the spooky Twilight Zone music that you’d expect with the walking undead environment - doesn't send shivers up your spine so I can play at night. Show less

- H0, you interact

- Usual good mini games, nothing new in the time I've played, may be later.....

- Hint button useful outside H0

- Skip button takes a while to fill

- Gorgeous graphics

This nasty little dwarf is back and he brought zombies with him this time. It's not boxing day yet but hunt is opened....
A buy for me. Show less

The puzzles were a mix of ones you've seen before and a couple of new ones and varied in difficulty. The hint button recharges relatively quickly (Casual setting) I didn't come across a map but you don't need one as you pass into different areas only after completing the one you are in.The story, while nothing really new, is still captivating (it's the old curse thing again lol) I will definitely be purchasing this one and cannot recommend it highly enough.

One of the creepiest characters that I have come across is SG, the white-haired dwarf with the lunatic laugh. This time he is back and has brought along with him Zombies that have suddenly invaded a fishing town. We soon find out that the local undertaker has struck up a deal with SG which involves a cursed mirror resulting in the rise of the dead who are now on a rampage. As detective, your mission is to once again battle wits with the infamous SG and help the town return to normal. The Undertaker is a very entertaining HOPA that offers a chilling story, brilliant graphics and good voice-overs. Game features include three play modes, a journal but unfortunately no map. There are interactive HO scenes along with very well designed mini-games that I found both challenging and fun to solve. There are also collectables which involve finding 30 fish scales which is part of the destiny fish that looks suspiciously like our good ole pal BFG's Fish. I found the game enjoyable and I especially love the artwork. These developers always do bring us entertaining games but I do find that game mechanics are always the same and very familiar. Still, the story along with the graphics make it a collector's item. You also have mini-games as extras and did I mention the annoying little monkey who keeps popping up and sticking out his tongue at us. Friend or Foe? I have no idea but I will just have to buy the game to find out. Show less

When a game captures my attention within the first 15 minutes...it is a keeper for me. Love this game. The dwarf is creepy and he makes you want to follow him to see what he is up to. The monkey...hmmm. not sure about him other than he is cute and is up to something! Great graphics and great story line. This would have been a great game to bring out around Halloween. The hidden object games and other alike are a challenge most of the time. I highly recommend this game and would like the developer to come out with a new and very exciting game. Something on the cheerful side for a change. I am going to buy this game for sure!! Show less

Well this one is quite easy. The HOS are good and the puzzles are not all that hard either. The hint button does work but will not need it much. The music is ok and the voice over and graphics are really good. Just a good fun game to pass the time away. IT has a pretty straight flow with some going back and forth. They all do now.

I recommend this game!

Hi!

Whether you're considering purchasing the Collector's Edition (which I do recommend) or the standard version, this game is worth twice the price Big Fish is asking for it because of its satisfyingly real and rich graphics, puzzles that are just challenging enough to get your brain juices flowing, hints that are actually helpful, items with logical uses associated to them, and just enough HOSs to change up the game play a bit.

Let's get specific:

> For younger audiences, this game is not appropriate. Portions of it step one toe past creepy into the realm of scary. I would say age 12 and up.

> The zombies are so well done that Big Fish could give Hollywood movie-makers a few pointers.

> The interface is easy to use, and only very slightly intrudes on the gameplay. The inventory bar is a bit taller/larger than necessary, but other than that it's well designed.

> The hints are helpful in directing you where you need to go next, BUT, they are just slightly vague so that you don't feel like they're handholding you.

> The storyline keeps you hot on the trail of the devilish little man who is causing all the trouble (this is not a spoiler, you find this out immediately when you start the game).

> My wish is they didn't tease quite so much about new areas. For example, when you unlock certain areas, instead of being able to enter that building or zone, you're given a hidden object scene--you can't actually go in the building! I found that slightly disappointing, since the exterior of the buildings are so lovingly designed, that the look of them makes you want to see what's inside.

> I didn't really care for the zoomed-out views of a lot of scenes. It's hard to describe, but let's say you're on a platform from a ski lift looking down at a house, a shed, and a courtyard far in the distance. You immediately assume you can walk over there to explore, right? Wrong. Your cursor changes to a magnifying glass over sections of the scene. It zooms in and gives you a pop-up window as though you had walked over there and were looking into, say, a barrel more closely. But, when you close the popup window, once again you're on the platform. You can't move any closer. This design makes scanning the area for intriguing objects much more difficult, because the distance makes the shapes hard to decipher. Small irritation, but it happens often enough to warrant a mention here. You'll see what I mean.

> The length is just right. It's a perfect length, really. It's just long enough to make you feel like you're getting your $13.99/$19.99's worth of gameplay. Yet, you also don't feel like the designers have drawn out the game for the sake of drawing it out, to a tedious extent. The puzzles are challenging and unique; I've played many HOGs but these door/chest puzzles are brand new.

> The puzzles seem to start out easy, and get progressively more difficult (but not impossibly so). It's like they're warming you up to the harder puzzles, which is nice, so you get used to the expectations and skills you'll need to solve them.

> This game will satisfy HOG traditionalists and people who prefer more puzzles than HOSs. It's a working balance between puzzles and HOSs.

> The only problem I had, and this may just be the processing speed on my laptop (which is only about 2 years old at most), is that when the cut scenes that begin with a blacked-out screen load, the first 5 seconds or so of it get cut off, so when the visual finally does load, the event you're supposed to see is either over or partially over. Not sure if this is a problem for other players.

> My concern is, I bought the Collectors' Edition, and the ending is continued in the "Extras" after you finish the main game. I haven't looked, but I worry that if you don't purchase this version, the standard version will end on the proverbial "cliffhanger", which may be frustrating to some. Again, read the description of the features before you purchase the standard version. Regardless, the Collectors' Edition is definitely worth the price tag.

Overall, this game is geared toward people who do enjoy HOSs, who like realism, who enjoy a touch of the scary in the plot, who like puzzles that are challenging but not super hard, and who overall want an interesting experience that keeps you engaged the entire time, from start to finish. It's a little too involved for someone looking for a casual no-brainer HOG, but it's just right for someone who is either seasoned and is looking for something that is easier than the harder games (but not dumber than a sack of hammers easy), or is a first-timer who is learning the ropes of what HOGs really mean.

Happy hunting!
