I'm so glad that I decided to give this one a shot because I was pleasantly surprised! I love when a new developer comes out because it opens up a new group of thinkers with different stories and styles. These folks definitely gave it there all on this one. This game plays very much like a CE, with all the little extras we have all grown to enjoy. Not once during my game play did I think that this was a SE. I don't need to go into the story line because there are enough other reviews on here that have already done that. The only thing I would tell the developers is the real people characters tended to take WAY to long either walking or talking and the gaps between speaking to each other needed to be shortened up. Other than that, congratulations and I hope to see more from you in the future!!
excellent game. graphics were very crisp, voice-overs were appropriate for the characters and the cutscenes were full of excitement and not too long. You start out as the aunt who gets a phone call from her niece who complains that there are strange things going on at her boarding school and to come quickly. Your job is to save the children from the infamous "Bloody Mary"! The HOS are not too difficult and they mix them up with paper cut-out scenes to solve aswell as many different mini-games. There are 16 gargoyles to find and a scene in the garden where you have to catch 6 meerkats. You have a little chipmunk friend names Chucky( which is very appropriate for the creepy doll-like atmosphere of the game). The only problem I had with it is it only took me 3 hours to complete. A little short for a CE.
The dev did a fantastic job with this one. Not only was it gorgeous, but the storyline, characters, and cutscenes kept you glued to the screen! Out of the 300 or more Bigfish games I own, I will have to say that this by far has been one of my favorites! I finished in in 4 hours, and did the bonus chapter which was just as enthralling. The bonus chapters also contained morphing objects which I thought was alot of fun. All the little extras make this game top notch!
