Well, it's free.

It's not a bad game. It's just not a particularly good one. The graphics are fine for it's age, but the audio is mostly annoying. You'll hear the same two or three seconds at the start of the main background "music" over and over again as you walk through the town. When you stay in one screen long enough to hear more of it it's not much better though. Some of the design choices puzzle me too. It's interesting (and more realistic) that characters will wander around town, but when you need to find someone it becomes frustrating and seems to have been added to lengthen a very short game. Speaking of which, you can probably finish it in four or five hours if you have any sort of point and click adventure game experience. Two to three if you use a walkthrough. I never played Lure of the Temptress when it originally came out, so outside of the graphical markings of it's age there really isn't any nostalgia trip for me. I didn't hate it. I just didn't love it.

Good but ...

The game it´s great, but... feels too old, i mean, Beneath a Steel Sky still has a gameplay system than everyone actually can play without feeling "akward" and definitevily enjoy the game as a classic/modern point and click game. But Lure of Temptress sadly has too many "menu options" that in that time was considered freedoom and possibilities, But actually becomes in too much trial and error, with many boring menus one after each other. (At least in my opinion) A good game if you can cope with this, but for me it becomes one of this few old games that it´s actually bit boring.

When you have nothing else to do...

This game hasn’t got much going for it. The graphics are passable, but nothing special. There‘s some nice enough music in it, but that’s really only played during the opening and the ending scenes. While playing you’ll only hear the same endless, mind-numbing "song" played over and over, to the point where I eventually turned off the sound. The story isn’t particulary interesting either. I did have a few chuckles while playing, mainly because some of the characters and jokes are genuinely funny. These moments are few and far between though. On top of that, the game is really short. It took me a good part of an afternoon to get through, and I guess experienced players of adventure games will breeze through it in a matter of hours. The one thing that’s really great about this game is that it’s free! So there’s really no reason not to pick it up. You probably won’t want to go out of your way to play it, but if you’ve got some time to kill and nothing else to do, this game is perfect!

Somewhat Bland

I'm not a big fan of Adventure games, but I played this simply because it was rated above average and it was free. To be honest, it was a very tedious game. The character does not walk fast enough, I feel, and it is difficult to figure out what to do in many situations, not to mention that the ScummVM emulator included with the game downloaded straight from gog.com is not up-to-date enough so that you could get stuck at a point close to the ending. That being said, the story and character development was decent, and there were some interesting ideas in the game, I just felt like the mechanics could be better and that there could have been less fetching missions.

Bundled ScummVM is buggy

Great game, but the ScummVM that it is bundled with is buggy and makes the game hard to play. If you want to have good experience with it you should try it on DosBox, or even better would be to obtain Amiga version and play it on UAE. You can see how the game behaves in original version here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxJLMsIDork There were reports to GOG about switching it to DosBox, but they were largely ignored, probably because the game is given away for free, so no one wants to waste their time with it.
