A solid narrative

Hob’s Barrow is a short mystical tale for in between. The characters and dialogues are convincing, and the distinctive dialect is a pleasure to listen to. The locations are charming, and the puzzles are logical and not difficult. In my opinion, the story itself is told a little too indirectly. The protagonist’s journal entries give too much of the story away, giving the impression that you are following a predetermined path, which takes away from the feeling of actually being on a mystical journey of discovery. That aside, the story is moving enough to linger in your mind for a while, and I enjoyed playing through Hob’s Barrow.

A mysterious adventure on the Moors

A very classic point and click game with an intruging storyline. You play as a barrow digger Thomasina Bateman, a grave digger archeologist basically, trying to find and excavate Hob's Barrow. However, this will be easier said than done... Known to be a local landmark, some of the locals seem to never have heard of it while others won't talk much of it... A darker adventure game for those looking for some suspense and mystery. You'll have to do all the classic fun point and click adventure stuff. Talking to interesting characters, collecting items and using them creatively. A strong point of the game is that the puzzles are logical and well thought out and the game will sometimes surprise you with what you think will be a simple solution that just requires a bit more thinking. All in all, a very worthwhile adventure game for people who like adventures with a darker atmosphere.

Simply incredible

The graphics, the story, the characters and setting are all great. Some funny scenes/jokes in there too. Also fantastic voice acting by Samantha Béart (Karlach) amongst others. Only drawback is that it is very short and the first two chapters are better than the third. I would have liked spending some more time exploring and conversing with the characters.

Thoroughly Recommended

As a long-time point and click enthusiast AND enjoyer of spooky stories, I have to say. They knocked it out of the park on this one. Delightfully creepy and atmospheric. If you're a fan of Lovecraftian horror, you will find something to like here.
