Lamplight City - my review

Having just finished the complete game, I feel qualified to now give a review of the game. Overall, I enjoyed Lamplight City. Some positives: Terrific in-game soundtrack (also available as a download I would recommend getting), wonderful art assets, good voice acting, and an interesting setting. As others have mentioned, puzzle solving involves an element of persistence, which I generally enjoyed. At times I thought I was stuck, but revisiting a previously consulted character revealed new dialogue options, which I appreciated. My main critique of Lamplight City is that it is neither a British Victorian era story nor an American one, and the dialogue - and characters - are frequently modern. I would have preferred a more authentic Victorian era mystery, but even as it is, I find there is plenty in Lamplight City for me to recommend it, for fans of 1990's era point-and-clicks and modern games alike. 4/5

Perfect dialogues in a compelling story

Really great! Good story, convincing atmosphere, perfect character design, excellent voice acting, interesting cases, nice ending. It`s not a game for inventory enthusiasts, who like to click and combine and rush through the scenes. Things you gather appear only as descriptions in the journal and get used automatically at the right point. There isn`t so much to pick up either. If you want to get something out of this game, you need to like to listen (which really is a pleasure). Save often, because you can cut off opportunities if you choose the wrong dialogue option. On the other hand there is an automatic save at the beginning of each case which you can come back to if you mess it up - which I would say is rather unlikely anyway, if you follow the leads the story prevents you with. I really enjoyed Lamplight City to the very last pixel, even the bonus takes you can access after ending the game are real fun.

A good point click adventure

Reminds me broken sword . Sound design is good. Funny dialogs and easy to play.

Hillarious

Been long since I've had so much fun with the casual banter between two characters in a game, so relaxed and natural. Voice talent and writers deserve a compliment here.

Lamplight city

There isn't any inventory puzzles. Sometimes you have to read your case files or books, but that's it. If you have the right item, it will be used automatically. Some dialoque choices are crucial. Sometimes it is the best option to NOT to say something, sometimes it is the best option to lie and sometimes it is the best option to tell the truth. It should be quite logical what to say, so if you fail the dialogue check in this game, you probably fail it in the real life too. Some reviews think that it is the design flaw, but I don't think so. If you fail the dialoque check, you have no-one but yourself to blame for it and this game do the right thing to punish you for it. Some people seems to think that this game should be solvable no matter what, but this game trusts karma. If you end up sleeping in the gutter, jail or mental hospital, you have earned it. There are 5 cases and I found them to be mostly good, except case 3. Sherlock Holmes this is not, but at least it better than Ben Jordan, paranormal investigator.
