Good series overall

Interesting plot and characters, and I liked the mechanic of combining your notes to derive further clues from them. Unfortunately that mechanic was dropped in the 3rd game, and only partially brought back in the 4th. The latter also introduced some "find the correct dialog choices" puzzles (which I generally don't like) and had quite a bit of pixel hunting (which I also generally dislike). The graphics and voice acting improved with each game, but the writing -particularly in the 4th game- seemed to get worse. It wasn't terrible, but it started detracting from the experience for me. While the first 2 games were short and sweet, the 4th one felt like it was longer than it should have been. To me at least.

Great story and engaging puzzles

Although the voice acting could be better in the first part, the series is great. The puzzles don't go into moon logic, but can be challenging. The gameplay is satisfying, and the story engages you. Really happy with this one. Note that the conclusion of the series is not part of the bundle (but is worth it!)

An excellent modern retro-adventure

An excellent and entertaining collection of little adventure games by the maker of The Shivah and Primordia. Entertaining characters and great voice acting make this a series worth recommending, with many intentionally (and some unintentionally) funny moments. The individual games are short, but tightly designed. The plot of the series builds and gains in impact over the course of a coherent narrative, so it is best to think of the bundle as one single game split into multiple episodes, which gives it a very satisfying total length. Puzzles and riddles are simple, but typically quite intuitive, with only one or two examples that require stereotypically nonsensical adventure logic. Definitely highly recommended.

Loved it

An absolute gem of a game. The games are pretty short - which is why I recommend playing them one after another, and consider them more like chapters of one longer game. As a fan of classics, this one was a perfect gaming experience for me.

Unexpected

Embittered writer, supernatural goings-on and conspiracy thriller titles? Surely just another game that uses an exciting premise and a the occasional cutscene full of shadowy figures to string it's missions/puzzles/maps together. Except.. this is not that game. There's not a Kane or Majestic-12 in sight. This is a series that focuses on the personal. The tormented ghosts in the description aren't evil spirits that you need to combat, but people in denial that you need to learn about so that you can help them come to terms with their death. It's a well written series and the emotional stuff is involving rather than tedious. It does suffer from pacing issues, the third and fourth game do feel like they're wandering off the plot instead of advancing it, although the fifth game does a reasonable job of tying their plots back in. That fifth game, The Blackwell Epiphany, isn't part of this bundle as of writing but should be bought as an integral part of the series. In short, a game that almost everyone will enjoy that's been marketed in entirely the wrong way.
