I HAVE PLAYED ALL THE GRIM TALES AND THIS ONE IS THE BEST ONE. THERE ARE ALOT OF ITEMS TO FIND AND THINGS TO DO. THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS TO DO THAT IT KEEPS YOU INTERESTED.
THE HINT SYSTEM ONLY TELLS YOU WHERE TO GO NEXT IT DOES NOT DIRECT YOU THERE. THE HO SCENES ARE QUITE CLEAR BUT SOME OF THE ITEMS ARE SMALL SO YOU NEED A SHARP EYE TO FIND SOME OF THEM.
THE GRAPICS ARE REALLY GOOD. NO VOICE OVERS YOU JUST HEAR WHAT IS BEING SAID.
AT THE BEGINNING THERE WAS'NT MUCH OF A STORYLINE. BUT I GOT THE JUST OF IT.
THE BOARDING HOUSE IS CURSED WITH STRANGE HAPPENINGS.
THE PUZZLES ARE FUN AND NOT FRUSTRATING. AT LEAST THERE ARE NOT HOS EVERY TIME YOU TURN AROUND WHICH MAKES IT NICE.
THE DEVS OUT DID THEMSELVES WITH THIS ONE. I WAS BEGINNING TO THINK THERE WAS NOT GOING TO BE ANOTHER GRIM TALES SINCE IT HAS BEEN QUITE AWHILE SINCE THEIR LAST ONE. THEY REALLY PUT ALOT OF THOUGHT INTO THIS ONE AND IT SHOWS. YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED.
I ONLY PLAYED THE DEMO. BUT THIS ONE IS A BUY FOR ME.
TRY IT, IF YOU HAVE PLAYED THE OTHER GRIM TALES AND ENJOYED THEM YOU WILL REALLY LIKE THIS ONE.

I recommend this game!
A long-forgotten artifact has just resurfaced, and the race to claim it will cause a devastating war. The only thing strong enough to stop it is one woman’s promise to the man she loves.

MISS NOT HAVING ACHIEVEMENTS, MORPHINE OBJECTS ETC. HOS ARE SLOW IN PERFORMING ACTIONS. (NEED TO BE PATIENT!) THE HINT BUTTON DOES A SWIRLING AROUND BEFORE GETTING TO THE ACTUAL PLACE. pUZZLES ARE EASY (SAME OLE SAME) THE HOS SCENES ARE CLEAR ENOUGH, BUT COULD BE BETTER. iNTERACTIVE MAP BUT IT SEEMS THAT IT TAKES IT TIME TO GET TO THAT LOCATION. THE DEMO VERSION ON MY END THE MUSIC CUT IN AND OUT. CUT SCENES WERE SLOW TO GET DONE.
I PLAYED THE DEMO AND WASNT REALLY EMPRESSED ENOUGH TO BUY IT AS A CE.
HOWEVER, THERE ARE ALOT OF THINGS TO DO AND TO FIND. ALL IN ALL IT IS NOT TOO BAD OF A GAME. BUT FOR ME IT WOULD BE A SE PURCHASE.
AS FAR AS THE SLOWNESS IN SOME SCENES IT TESTED MY PATIENCE.
I LIKED THE GAME WELL ENOUGH. ALL I CAN SAY IS TRY THE DEMO VERSION FIRST BEFORE PURCHASING TO SEE WHAT YOU THINK OF THE GAME PLAY.

There are screams heard in Silent Hollow... Trouble at the Mystery Trackers headquarters means you're called in to help.

Great HO Game. Challenging enough to keep your interest. Interactive Map. Great Hint System.

I have played all the Mystery Tracker games and this one is especially good. Elephant dev. did a great job. Graphics could have been just abit better but it is still not hard on the eyes. Not too many HOs , interactive, objects are visible. I dont recall being able to change your game mode during gameplay, but I dont mind. There are achievements to get and money to find I guess to buy items in the store. (didnt get that far). I only played the demo version and I really enjoyed it hated to see it end.
If you havent played these type of games before it can be alittle frustrating at first, but dont give up. This is my first review so bear with me.
I highly recommend this game. I is a diffinite buy for me. I have purchase a few Mystery Tracker games because I believe the devs. do a great job. I like Elephant games.
However, everyone has different opions so all I can say is try it first.
Oh, when a person speaks, you can read along with it to see what they are saying.
