Old school adventure

This game is not perfect, but I give it 5 stars, because of the story and dark atmosphere. It is proper point & click adventure game, it cannot be finished it three-fours hours, like many nowadays games, which is in plus. Graphic is not great anymore, but game is quite old, so cannot expect revelations. First impression wasn't too good, but when I get in to the story it dragged me in. I purchased this game all together with other two parts for £1.39 each, which is a great price for such a game.

Great Game

I thoroughly enjoyed playing this game. Although it could do with a few more clues for the puzzles I still loved it. One tip though, save, save and save again or you'll end up replaying a long stretch of game when you die suddenly.

One of the best adventure games ever

One of the best adventure games out there. Very underrated gem. It reminds me a lot of the amazing Broken Sword adventure games, except with a more horror setting. The whole trilogy is very well done. The story and the puzzles were very well done.

Pretty Good!

I bought this on a whim and i'm glad I did. Its an older point & click game and it has a lot of charm. The plot's about an ancient curse set on the Gordon familiy and Samual, the grandson, has come to solve it. It has a great soundtrack and really good visuals for the time. It took me about 10 hours or so to complete. But be warned, it's only easy at the first two chapters and gets hard from there. Some of the puzzles take quite a bit of time and some of the solutions to problems dont have easy answers. I had to resort to a walkthrough for a bit of the game, otherwise I never would have progressed. Also, I was un-aware that I could die, so I suggest saving a lot later in the game. I think if you like a rich, dark story and point & clicks, you'll enjoy this game!

Pleasant and long adventure game

There's a good English manor atmosphere. You can only collect objects relevant to current puzzles and you can't leave an area until you complete puzzles. I like this concept so you don't waste time wandering aimlessly and you don't need to juggles with dozens of inventory items. I found the use of left and right buttons confusing. The left button is fine for 99% of actions but some objects require a right-click. Thing that annoyed me is that you occasionally need to wait until a character completes an action and this seems to take forever.
