If you are familiar with the original Christmas Carol story you probably know everything about old Ebenezer Scrooge and his partner Jacob Marley. In this game you are a ghost of Marley.
You had found some of your partner’s dark secrets and for that he killed you. Now, with some help from the famous Ghosts of Christmas future, present and past you must seek your revenge and stop evil Scrooge.
For me the game was ok, I am not that excited as I expected, but I had a good time. Graphics are clear and done nicely, but sadly there was no voice overs and music was nothing special. Storyline was easy to follow and in some pats I found my self pretty interested in whole adventure. You have no map in the game, also there are no modes, and you have optional tutorial at the beginning. Hidden object scenes were mostly easy with no interaction, and puzzles not so much challenging, because of that my opinion is that this game is probably better for younger gamers. Big minus is the length, I personally prefer games which takes more hours to finish.
Over all, this game is nice, definitely not a waist of time, especially if you are looking for relaxed game with not so much challenge and mind breaking puzzles.
I recommend this game!

One of the best adventures I have come across
Main character Kiera receives a mysterious letter that leads her to Blackwater asylum. While there, she will try to find information about her family. What she didn’t know is that while trying to reveal mysteries from her past, she will find herself in far more dangerous situation that she ever expected.
The game itself is very well done. Interesting plot. Creepy atmosphere and beautiful graphics, low music in the background contributed to the whole experience. There was no voice overs .
You have optional tutorial and detailed instructions. Also there are no hidden object scenes but puzzles in the game are definitely good enough to keep you playing.
You have hint and skip buttons.
No map.
Also Kiera has a camera so you can take pictures of any clue during the game.
Definitely worth playing, and if you are a true adventure game addict I honestly recommend trying it out.
I recommend this game!
