Description
Blackwood Crossing is a story-driven first-person adventure game. A haunting tale of intrigue and mystery.

You play as Scarlett, a teenager finding her way in the world. You wake up, disorientated, to find yourself and your younger brother, Finn, inexplicably travelling on a moving train.

But when a mysterious figure appears, it’s clear that this is no ordinary train ride. It’s the beginning of a magical voyage, steeped in life, love and loss.

Navigating this powerful drama - where the world, and your abilities develop in extraordinary ways - you are forced to examine your relationship with Finn. You are orphans, and your relationship has always been strong. However, adolescence has opened the door to new interests, and you’ve been growing apart.

As you gradually uncover the depths of Finn’s anguish, the consequences of your remoteness become shockingly clear.
  • A story-driven first person adventure game
  • A mysterious adventure of life, love and loss.
  • The player completes a series of puzzles during the game to drive the narrative forward, in first-person view.

A beautiful short journey

Blackwood Crossing is simply wonderful. It looks magical, the locations are full of small details that makes them come alive and the character designs and animations are top notch. The voice actors did incredible work, the background music is contributing so much to the experience while rarely getting in the forefront and the touching story manages to be very impressive, despite the fact that it's direction is quite clear from the beginning. Many games are about forgiving, understanding and moving on with life, but Blackwood Crossing not only has it's heart in the right place, but manages to deliver it's message in a quality package.

Touching story, weak game mechanics

I really tried to like this game, but I mostly failed. I love the art direction, I like the music, and the story is touching. But I found the game mechanics getting in the way of enjoying the story. Coupled with the snail-paced walking, the game elements deteriorate the whole experience. I'd rather this be a pure 'walking simulator', really. So, as as story I loved it, but as a game it fell short - for me.

Great story

This game has a great story and beautiful art direction. If you love story driven games, I strongly recommend giving this a chance. There are a few caveats, however: - You move at a snails pace, so you'll need some patience - Replies use the same buttons as your movement buttons, which means you might accidentally trigger them before you get a chance to read them - The FOV is narrow; If you have problems with this, you might want to skip it.

Bad console port

You know these games where you see from the first sight that developers don't give a ... about PC experience when porting game from consoles? Twitchy controls, FPS lock, stupid camera, and peculiar feeling when you move the mouse that formula which translates that movement into rotation of the camera just doesn't feel right? This game is one of them.

Artsy fartzy story. Brilliant.

This game is basically an artsy fartzy story. And it is brilliant. The art looks gorgeous, sound and music just fits. Technically I had a few issues with the controls, which bugged me. Joypad turned out to be better than keyboard wasd, but sometimes the focus points just don't really click. Also some of the puzzles just didn't click for me and turned into "try every combination" at the end. I has a really brilliant story and gets deeper and deeper with every minute. Made my cry.
