I have to admit I wasn't expecting much when I downloaded this game, what an epic suprise! Even the beginning profile scene was awesome. First of all the graphics are crisp and high definition, the cutscenes are very well done, the cars look real, props such as cell phones look so real that you call even tell what kind of phone it is supposed to represent!

I have to admit I wasn't expecting much when I downloaded this game, what an epic suprise! Even the beginning profile scene was awesome. First of all the graphics are crisp and high definition, the cutscenes are very well done, the cars look real, props such as cell phones look so real that you call even tell what kind of phone it is supposed to represent! A good story to follow along with, driving you along because you want to know more, ghostly characters you meet along the way each have a plight of their own, victims of black magic that you need to help move on. There are many puzzles that are pretty simple to do and won't have you pulling out your hair to figure out such as rotating puzzle pieces until you have a complete picture, or matching pairs of similar items. There is a map that allows you to travel quickly to any scene and shows you which scenes have tasks to preform. There aren't to many HO scenes and the items are well hidden and interactive such as finding sunglass lenses and putting them on the frame. The only complaint I have is that some of the hidden objects were so tiny that you could barely tell what they were. I know you will enjoy this halloween themed game and I plan on buying this to finish the story! Show less

I recommend this game!

Very cute game, cool story and many interesting characters!
2 modes of gameplay: casual and expert
You have a journal and a map (allows travel)
Hint system is very helpful, also hint button recharges quickly
Puzzles are really good, many different ones with different level of challenging, also there are some new ones. For some you have to collect few objects to be able to solve them so it’s always ...Show more

Puzzles are really good, many different ones with different level of challenging, also there are some new ones. For some you have to collect few objects to be able to solve them so it’s always entertaining
HOS are mostly clear, interactive, but some of them were a bit like a junkpile and visibility was bad
Graphics are adorable, a bit cartoonish but them again some characters were designed really realistic
Music was at satisfying level, contributed nicely
Storyline is interesting, thrilling and spooky
Verdict: great game, I honestly recommend it! Show less

Details after playing the completed game in Expert mode:

Please Note: For those who are sensitive to occult subject matter, the storyline, graphics, and some game play incorporate occult themes (spells, and rituals, graphics w/pentagrams, etc.). Music is also on the eerie side.

Details after playing the completed game in Expert mode:

Please Note: For those who are sensitive to occult subject matter, the storyline, graphics, and some game play incorporate occult themes (spells, and rituals, graphics w/pentagrams, etc.). Music is also on the eerie side.

-2 Difficulty Modes: Casual and Expert.

-Options Menu includes volume control for Music/Sound Effects/Ambient Audio. There are choices for Screen Resolution, Fullscreen, Widescreen, and System Cursor.

-Diary can be found on the bottom right portion of the screen above the Hint button.

-There is a map located on the bottom right side above the Menu button. You can use the map to transport from location to location and it also notifies you of available activities with a green and black exclamation point.

-Inventory bar does not lock.

-The game did fill my 19“ monitor screen.

-Hint button can be used for both HOS and game play. Hint button takes about 1 minute to reload in Expert mode (30 seconds in Casual).

-Most of the HOS are interactive and in junkpile form. There are about 18 original HOS. Some had minigames included.
*There is no misclick penalty.

-Puzzles/Minigames can be skipped. It took about 1 minute to skip in Expert mode (30 seconds in Casual). For help solving the puzzles, a Question Mark is located in the upper right corner.
*There are about 30 puzzles to complete.

-There are cut scenes throughout the game, but these can be skipped.

Genre: Supernational/Paranormal/Occult

Game length: I consider myself a slow to medium paced player, so it took me 6 hours 16 minutes to complete the game.

My opinions about the game:

*I played in Expert mode and there were sparkles for only finding the HOS.
*Graphics were fantastic!
*Music fit with the gameplay. Very creepy!
*Most of the puzzles were somewhat difficult, but there was help by clicking the ? (or could be skipped).
*The HOS were fun to do!
*Game length is long! Show less

I recommend this game!

A solid plot that reveals itself slowly, lots and lots of new areas to see, yet doesn't take you everywhere just to find or fix one item, HOGs that have that little extra challenge, and several mini games with explanations that leave no doubt as to the challenge.

This review is based on the demo. This game hooks you right from the start with a sort of Blair Witch type intro. The hidden object sections are challenging and fun, and some of the cut scenes black out so you have to imagine what's going on. Scary but not gross. Nice take on the teenagers in a spooky house genre!

I recommend this game!

Excellent and long game, nice story, good puzzle.
You could get problems with 2 or 3 cutting scene : all dark but it dint change the understanding of the story and the fun to play the rest. So do not hesitate to buy this one ! Bonus, you pay like a SE.

I recommend this game!
