Multiple technical issues. I was able to still play despite these, but its obvious that QA was missing on this team. Unable to disable the custom cursor. Good music- appropriate. Voiceovers were OK. There are two modes of play: one with and one without sparkles. Wide screen available. The storyline is a little quirky but definitely kept me interested as time went on. A fair amount of HOS and objects you find within a scene to be used within a little while. Interactive HOS were cute. Great length and neat little epilogue. This could have been a great game if not for the above. I really think you ought to try it for yourself! :)
I recommend this game!

I have to admit that I liked, bought, and completed the game. The bonus section was of really good length. I felt that mostly the game's good length was due to me running here, there, and everywhere. I didn't get lost but did forget where I saw something due to this. The graphics are great. The puzzles are easy. The HOS were plentiful. The game was intriguing but not very well plotted. Given the choice, I don't know that I would replay or purchase this game again. On the fence about that. It has everything I like in a CE game including bonus content that does not get unlocked until the game is complete. The choices for casual or harder core gamers was there. The voice acting was ok, but the script wasn't so hot. The accents were kind of funny.
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.

I just finished the entire game after approx. 7.5 hours of play. I don't consider myself a dummy, but I have to admit I was truly mystified on what to do next OFTEN! I also had difficulty with some of the puzzles. One of them on a door reminded me of the first Ravenhearst which made me grin and look forward to solving it. Well, all in all a great game, but some may not like the new morphing object scenes. I disliked the strategy guide as it was just pictures and this made it uninformative. Sometimes u just need words. I hate to admit that I needed it often. Graphics were INCREDIBLE! The storyline was WONDERFUL! Enjoy!

Great storyline, keeps you hooked! The adventure and action is frequent, also keeping you hooked! However, I did have difficulty finding some objects due to the unusual artwork. I found the game difficult at times in that I wasn't sure what I should do next. The hint button does sparkle the area you have to do next so that helped, but I hate resorting to that. LOL. I liked the progressive hint system. The music was good. Unique gameplay in that it switched between characters to allow you to complete tasks. Gameplay was average length. Have fun!

Caught my interest and kept it. Some HO scenes were difficult to see, so I did not rate at the highest level. The music, however, was wonderful, and I actually kept it on. I normally turn it off. The story progression was intense and kept you going. I had things to do and definitely had to make myself stop in order to complete them. LOL. I have to tell u tho, that there were areas that I was kinda lost, so the hint button was valuable. Just showed u what direction to go in.

Enjoyed every last minute of this game! And I'm even replaying it already. I'm in love. LOL. The voiceovers, the actors/acting, the action, the puzzles. I had to use the hint button a few times and some of the puzzles were difficult but most were just plain enjoyable! Have fun with this game. Wait until u play the bonus section! ;)
I recommend this game!

The storyline is intriguing and the graphics are pretty good. There are some items I really have to search for. The navigation is a little clunky as is the fact that from different areas, the loading screen comes up and counts down. But other than that, I really have nothing to complain about. I liked it and purchased it!
I recommend this game!
