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.

I have the series and this one blew me away. It changes everything I have thought about puzzle and hidden object games (HOGs). I expected to be doing the usual HOGs as I waited for the puzzles. There were NO HOGs!!! Instead the makers utilized morphing objects. This actually was more of a challenge and made this game stand out above all the rest.
Saying all that, I would have liked just a standard version. As a Collector's Edition (CE), it was lacking. No extra scene. That would be my only draw back to the game. So when they come out with the basic game, jump on it. Or maybe the makers could offer those of us who bought the CE version a little additional game????
Overall, I enjoyed the game. Just wanted more.
I recommend this game!
A kingdom’s future rests in the light of three beacons. Can they be lit in time? Will the shadows be cast into light?

Loved it! The story line carries throught the game. Some of the graphics may appear to be elementry, but that is deceiving. The puzzles are challenging, even for the experienced. The background music isn't earth shattering.
Throw caustion to the wind; this is only one of a few games that I would pay to play again and again. I would highly recommend this game for all levels. The hint process is helpful for the novice and you don't have to use it.
I bought the latest game in the series knowing that the last (or first) installment was deamed by some to be too short. I don't care; it is that good of a story.
I recommend this game!
