In my opinion, this game should be used as an example of how great games are made. You can't go wrong buying this game. I really like when game developers "think outside the box," and this one did not disappoint.
I just finished this game, and boy did I enjoy it! The graphics are well done and the hints are very fast to reload. I was pleased to see that the character pop-ups, which were a constant annoyance in the previous games, are down to a minimum in this one. Two thumbs up for me!

I've gotta say, this game really exceeded my expectations. The images were very nice, and I really enjoyed the style of hints they used. This is one of the better games I've played in awhile. Went ahead and bought the sequel. Hope it's a keeper, too!
This game was highly enjoyable for me. I really liked the map pieces, making it much easier to transport from place to place. It has a nice combination of searchable items, not just pure HOG.
I was pretty impressed with this game. Not incredibly hard, but fun just the same. Not formatted like your typical FROG. Almost easy enough for a child to play. I really liked that there was not a lot of back-tracking and back and forth stuff. Each scene will let you know when there is nothing more you can do.
Let's not judge too harshly, shall we? After all, this game came out before the adventure-style games became all the rage. Personally, this is still one of my Top 3 favorites! In fact, it was the first game I ever bought from BFG and I leave it installed on my computer to play over and over again. I'll admit, the level of challenge is modest, but the graphics are awesome, as are the voiceovers and sound effects. Play this game when your brain needs a break from the harder HOGs.
I fully enjoyed this game. Being a big "Silence of the Lambs" fan, I felt like I was being guided around by Hannibal Lecter. The creepiness was awesome. The graphics were great. Overall, I give this game two thumbs up!
Return once more to the haunted grounds of Ravenhearst Manor to uncover new details about this poignant saga. What you find could very well be the final chapter of this riveting story-if you escape.
Whew! Boy am I glad to be done with this game! Don't get me wrong, the game is awesome. But I had so many technical problems that it almost became a burden to finish. I wouldn't recommend this game to anyone with an older computer. The creepy factor was high, that's for sure. I have to say, I wasn't hating the morphing objects. It was a nice change. Overall, it's a great game.
