I thought this was a excellent game!
There were many puzzles where I didn't have a clue, but eventually I realized that I had seen something, somewhere, and back I would go to look for that item; eventually I'd find it.
The game can hold your hand, but it's so much more fun to have to think about things and puzzle them out.
I get bored with most games and quit; I finished this one.
I recommend this game!

Did Captain Magnus sail away with a legendary treasure, or was he carried off into the night?

Yes, it is an adventure game!
You are going to have to pay attention to where you are because movement can be tricky, maybe even take notes.
You will do some back and forth, you will not have sparkles.
The puzzles are not insurmountable, tedious at times, but they can be done.
I recommend this game!

A locked room murder awaits you! Was the killer human or something else?

I finished the demo with 20 minutes remaining, playing in the "advanced" mode, and this included watching every cut scene.
I chose that mode because I haven't played a game in a few years and thought I would need help; I didn't.
I would assume that those of you that play often will breeze right through it.
I thought the voice overs were quite pleasant, visuals good as well. HOPAS etc. had an interesting mix.
I am a fan of LFG. The Sherlock's, Agatha Christie, Siberia and the like so I appreciated not being inundated with a hidden object area every other click.

It's not a Dire Grove sequel.
That being said it's not even a great game on it's own.
It's got the same gameplay of every other game out there, they've just changed characters and the storyline.
I don't recommend this game.
