beerfanboy's Review History
 
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.

When I saw that this Mystery Case Files game only had a 3 star rating, I was really surprised and disappointed. However, when I started reading some of those bad reviews and they were full of things like "too difficult" "not enough sparkly helper things" and "too scary" I knew I had to give it a try.
I'm getting bored with the overly-easy games, where obvious items are used in obvious places, and the sparkly "helpers" make me feel like I'm a mouse clicker being lead through a story, rather than actually playing a game. This is completely different, and requires out-of-the-box thinking and brainpower. It's a challenging game, which sucked me right in, and I haven't played one this well planned and devious for a long time.
This is easily one of the best three games BFG has ever offered, and if you like a multi-day challenge, and not just an easy 3 hour breeze, then this game is for you.
I recommend this game!

Has everything I expect from a HOG - good graphics, interesting story, not too easy/not too hard. I can't find any faults with it. Probably one of the top 10 HOGs I've played.
I recommend this game!
