I purchased this game when it first came out Just now played it this month It's FANTASTIC!! HOS are all interactive and not crowding out the adventure Theme is Great theme reminds me of the old German game Cultures with an element of the scifi thrown in Music Exciting Story Decent Fun Mini Games most offering a challenge and the Best Part Plays like an Adventure Game !! Everyone who worked on this game is surely Proud!! Why on Earth does this not have a Five Star Rating?? Could it have something to do with People who Demo the game are rating it?? Giving it Inaccurate ratings Such a shame as this game Deserves a Full Five Stars!! Something i Rarely give!! Game offers choice of skill levels To play like old school adventure game choose the advanced level This game is Not For those who want to glide From one HOS to another the HOS This game is Not for those who hate dialogue and Love HOS filling their games BUT If you enjoy straight up Adventure Games I recommend this Wonderful Game It comes very close to old school adventure And you will barely even notice the interactive HOS sprinkled about I Loved playing this game Definite Replay for Me!! I recommend buying the SE not this CE The bonus game is extremely short and i found nothing else of value in the CE
Fantasy HOPA not suitable for young children Too scary But not scary for adults just a simple little fantasy story Visually Beautiful most ot the time Game play is decent Lots of HOS however they are creative interactive HOS That can appeal to those who dont like HOS Good for beginners as it has a choice for skill levels Liked playing once but not a replay for me Buy the CE because the SE is half the story The bonus game contains the second half I own both the CE and SE The SE is not as good and imo incomplete
One HOS after another HOS Very Well Done IHOG For what it is It is Fantastic The theme is very creepy and not suitable for children It would be too scary Also there is blood even in one of the mini games This is mostly HOS and Loads of them i dont like HOS in my adventure games But i do like to play a HOG from time to time Especially scary or creepy ones I have played Dreamland several times If i wait long enough between playing The HOS are just as Challenging as the first time i played If you enjoy pretty much straight up HOGs And you like Creepy Carnivals This game is for YOU! Also try out Mystery Legends Sleepy Hollow
When a bolt of lightning sends you back to the days of King Arthur, you trade in your farmer's hat for a suit of armor and set off on a journey to find the Fountain of Youth!
Reviews on New Yankee games are confusing I wish only those who finish games could review them This game is in Fact a challenge If you strive for Gold The gameplay is not to my liking I have played it a few times And each time i soon find it more Work than play I have to finish in All Gold thats just how i play by comparison the first in the series is not as hard as the second This game is not officially in my rotations Its too tedious I recommend only for those that demo and like it a fun TM with much better gameplay imo is Settlers of the West
I am not a big fan of the first two games in this series At the time of this review I have played the first the second and the Christmas versions All are quite challenging to get Gold If a review says otherwise it is because they only played a demo or they are not going For Gold Its not the challenge that puts me off Its simply the gameplay combined with the challenge You can demo to see if you like the game but realize to get Gold you will have to play some levels more than once One game i play much more And offers the top most challenge is Ye Olde Sandwich Shoppe Very Clicky Hard to beat Loads of fun I recommend New Yankee 2 Only if you demo and like it
I scare easily alone at night in the dark Playing this old game Very Creepy and Scary as you start the game Not as scary as you progress Easy game that flows logically You shouldn't need help All but two mini games were easy There is a map that transports you Which i like Not much fun to run around a lot Game ending taught a nice lesson But i had to use windows task manager to close the game As it just sat there after it ended I liked playing it once Not a replay for me
Honestly would give this game a 4 Yes it is easy on most levels but near the end Getting Gold takes much Effort making it a worthwhile TM However it is so Glitchy hence i give it a 3 I wont be replaying it and I wont be putting it in my TM rotations On to try the next game in the series
Dull Story Dull Mini Games Loads of HOS which i do not like Forced myself to finish it Uneventful ending to the story as well Not even worth a free credit imo
There are people who want Lots of HOS in their games Thats not me I LOVE DIALOGUE!! What i want is Dialogue like the old school games It makes the game more realistic and I feel like i am in the story If you hate Dialogue Ignore this Review Very Well Done HOPA Moderate on the HOS Heavy on the Adventure If you Enjoy Sherlock Holmes Nancy Drew Or The Cameron Files this should interest you However the murders are gruesome I give it a five overall but I was not happy with the CE I didn't need the internal strategy guide And i thought the bonus game was super lame It was long enough but destroyed the story for me I recommend the SE instead jmo For the first in the series Brink of Consciousness Dorian Gray Syndrome I prefer the CE Whatever you choose Buy Both!!
If you are looking for a Challenging Game Look Elsewhere What this game offers is Adventure with only a handful of HOS The mini games are Easy for most Might have some challenge for beginners Definitely a challenge for children I love this game and have played it several times Alone and with others in my family Its nice to play with little ones Visually Beautiful Audio can be nice but sometimes repetitive Personally never tire of playing it I will play again Buy It!!
