Shadowgate is one of the most well-known and beloved point-and-click adventure titles in gaming history. As one of the original titles in the popular MacVenture series that went on to be celebrated on the NES, GBC, and Nintendo 64, Shadowgate quickly endeared players with its fantastic atmospheric soundtrack, perilous locations to progress through, countless puzzles to solve, and more ways to gruesomely die than gamers previously thought possible. Thrust into the role of "The Seed of Prophecy," players travel deep into the living castle, in hopes of defeating the evil that dwells within – the dreaded Warlock Lord.
Now, nearly 30 years after the original version haunted Mac and NES gamers, the original development team behind that timeless classic is back with a full re-imagining of the original Shadowgate. Much more than a port, the team at Zojoi has painstakingly redesigned the game from the ground up, adding in tons of new mind-bending puzzles, lots of new rooms with stunning hand-painted 2D graphical detail, and more objects to interact with and help you along your quest.
Decide how YOU want to play this new, re-imagined Shadowgate! Want the modern adventure experience? Use the wheel-based icon command system. Want the retro experience? Employ the Classic command system and turn on the retro graphics, soundtrack, text box, and room transitions. Want a more cinematic experience? Switch to Immersive mode by auto-hiding the UI and using customizable hotkeys to explore the castle. Or mix and match the options to satisfy your play style. In Shadowgate, there are plenty of new features and fun throwbacks to the original version to satisfy veteran adventurers and newcomers alike!
Customized UI: Play the way you want! Use modern wheel-based icon commands, classic on-screen commands, or jump into Immersive mode to auto-hide the UI elements. Create key binds, lock commands and keys, and more.
The Dread Pumpkin Quest: A new mini-quest, find and free the Dread Pumpkin!
First Person Adventuring: Utilize your inventory, mapping system, and intuitive UI to complete your quest.
Rooms of Fine Danger: Tons of beautifully illustrated rooms featuring both new and familiar locations, offering a new gameplay experience.
Mind-bending Puzzles: Lots of new and updated puzzles that seamlessly expand on the original game.
Difficulty Levels: Four different difficulty levels (from the novice to expert) that actually change the gameplay experience and puzzle structure. For the ultimate challenge, try Ironman mode that disables saves and requires players to finish the game in one try.
Retro Mode: Play the game like it’s 1989! Toggle on pixelated graphics, listen to Hiroyuki Masuno’s original NES chip tunes, move between rooms with NES transitions, and enjoy the text in retro format.
Storytelling: Shadowgate features dramatic cut-scenes and all the same great storytelling you expect from the original creators.
Cinematic Score: A digitally-orchestrated, dynamic soundtrack that changes with gameplay by composer Rich Douglas.
Soundscapes: A complete atmospheric and puzzle-based sound design featuring hundreds of sound effects.
Achievements: 60 in-game achievements to find and unlock.
Animations: Environmental and object-specific animations and particles bring each location to life.
Help: Need a hint? An in-game help system is just a click away.
I stepped into it expecting an adventure game that would get me interested in the story, and throw puzzles at me which would be relevant and intriguing to solve. I got a nonsense puzzle game with zero effort to hook me in.
Not as advertised. I am not getting the 1987, 1988, 1989 or 1999 versions of this game like is displayed in the trailers on GOG. When I choose retro in the game the settings, it just takes the current version and displays it at a much lower resolution. that's it.
+1 DLC is written at the top of the game in my library also, but I see any DLC in the game contents, in my library.
If there is a DLC or a way to play the earlier versions, I sure don't see it, and nowhere in the game is any of this explained either, so I have to assume you just don't get what you are led to believe you will get.
So I have to give this a 1 star, for misleading advertising and apparently not getting all the files that this was suppose to have included.
6 of 5 must play.

Shadowgate scores 4 of 5.
Game does not work so I cannot review the game itself. GOG 'support' does not accept messages. GOG has no listed tech support number. I paid for nothing and cannot even attempt to fix a broken product. I will repost this review until GOG contacts me to fix the issue or refunds my money for a product that is broken. Fix your CS or expect more trolls and less business and bad publicity in gaming circles (Once a good company, no longer).
I recently installed this game (purchased a few weeks ago) and it will not start at all. If there is some common bug or fix then I will try to resolve the problem. However I am very annoyed by the lack of support for games on GOG and expect that when I purchase a game and install it that it will setup the game properly and work the first time I try to start it. If there is some amount of programing and third party utility needed then the game is broken as sold and you should not be selling the game in this state and I do expect a refund regardless of purchase date.
