Not great, not terrible. The game was just too easy, even in at a higher difficulty. I enjoyed playing it, but if you want a brain teaser, this is not the game. I recommend it with that disclaimer.
I recommend this game!

Let me start with the fact that I would buy this game again. Cons: Game was too easy. Also the game starts out excellent and the storyline gets lame in the last chapter. Also, there were a few bugs in the game when we played it. I had to exit and re-enter to "override". Still worth the play.
I recommend this game!

Great game! I have been critical of reusing the Ravenhearst storyline in years' past, but this one was a nice twist. It builds on the story without beating it to death as was the case with Charles. The games were challenging towards the end. All in all, a good game.
I recommend this game!

Puzzles too Easy

This was not a bad game. The plot was mundane, but why I think this is a 3-star game is because the puzzles were super easy. Sometimes, I just love a good puzzle that takes a while to figure out. Recommend the game.

The map is useless, so I have to take off one star, but the game is fun. The plot and sequence is so off the wall that it makes the game hard. Love it!

We recommend the game and we enjoyed it; but minus 1 star for bringing Alister Dalimar back. What's next? Charles in Huntsville? I would love to see a new antagonist in the 14th edition.
Seriously, minus 1 for some of the games - way too easy to be called a puzzle. Otherwise, good to play!
I recommend this game!

The game is GREAT. 5 stars. Bringing Charles back into it though? Next, he'll be the corrupt mayor of Huntsville. Seriously, there is a time to mix storylines and a time not to. Great game, but storyline should have been on its own.
I recommend this game!

So I rated the game's qualities high, but only gave it 3 stars? Why? The game has a few stupid bugs, with the most annoying being on the hints. At times, I ran out of things to do and the hints were circular - taking me between 2 screens when the answer was somewhere else. The strategy guide was helpful, but was wrong at the end of the game (not the bonus chapter but the actual game). As for the storyline, at the beginning you see a character murder a victim, but in the end another character admits to it; hence there is a plot hole. The graphics and challenge is great. Overall, I recommend, but know these issues can be annoying.
I recommend this game!

It is not as good as most of the other MCF, but MUCH better than Escape from Ravenhearst. Some of the reviews were hard, but justified. This game is for those who like seek and finds and riddles. There are two hard puzzles in it, and otherwise, the other puzzles (sort of) are elementary. I am dinging a point for the bad acting. I was seriously expecting better acting. I know I am being hard myself...
I recommend this game!

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.

Unlike many users, the plot did not bother me. I rate this 2 out of 5 because of the morphing objects. While the graphics in this were fantastic, the objects morphed one or two at a time, and it was VERY difficult and boring to play. I implore Big Fish Games to go back to the "list" format. if the morphing objects are to be used, do it like in the older games where it is to gain something. I saw the game, and that was that.
I don't recommend this game.
