Good start, not so good end
I'm no big fan of point&click adventures, but from time to time a good title will hold my interest long enough to finish it. The Raven Remastered is such a title. I really liked the first part of the game: the setting is nice, the atmosphere is right, the art style and voice acting is good. The story is interesting and the puzzles are maybe not the best, but quite fitting. The notebook with the optional hints is a neat idea, but it would have been nice to know in advance that using the hints will lower your score. The possibility to highlight all "hotspots" on the screen can be helpful for beginners, but the highlighting could be a litte bit more noticeable. POSSIBLE SPOILER FOLLOWING In the second part of the game you will replay some scenes from the first part, but from another perspective. It is really interesting because you get answers to questions which may have came up in the first part. The puzzles are not really good here: often you simply combine everything with everything to progress and will shake your head because of the "solutions" (yeah, I really must find a drain to bend some piece of wire because how could bend a piece of wire otherwise?). As interesting the notebook is with its descriptions of characters and events, it becomes confusing later on because you do not get a notification about which parts have been updated. Because of that I barely read the notebook in the second half. The end was really surprising and I could not have guessed it, but it could have been handled better (maybe dropping the faintest of hints around the game to get you thinking). I do not have a reference for how long a good point&click adeventure should last, but it took me nearly twelve hours to finish it. Fortunately the first part took more than half of the time. I would advise anyone interested in the game to wait for a sale: it may not be worth full price.
