Blue Tea Games makes undoubtedly the best games on Big Fish. The Dark Parables series are all wonderful. This one is the first and is a little less complex than the later two. More puzzle than HO. Perfect graphics and sound. Lots of back and forth between scenes. I didn't want this to be over when it was done. This is a game for casual game connoisseurs. If you like some easy fast fun this isn't for you.
If you buy this game (and you should) GET THE COLLECTOR'S EDITION! It is worth it!
I recommend this game!

Blue Tea Games makes undoubtedly the best games on Big Fish. The Dark Parables series are all wonderful. This one seemed like the longest. More puzzle than HO. Perfect graphics and sound. Lots of back and forth between scenes. I had to use quite a few hints my first time through this game.

I love the MCF series of games, but the 3 (I think there are 3) Ravenhurst games don't hold my attention like other MCF games. The plot is good, though predictable, but it gets beaten to death by the third game, in my opinion. I would much rather play Dire Grove, 13th Skull, or Madame Fate. Still, it is a good, Gothic game with mostly challenging HO scenes.
Try the free version before buying. If you get sucked into the plot, know that you will have to buy all the games before your obsession is finished. That is a lot of money for a series that you may not find interesting enough to play a 2nd or 3rd time. Worth the free trial, though.
I recommend this game!

The problem with this sort of game is that everyone already knows the story and has seen the Tim Burton movie. However, this game did a really good job of presenting a fresh and frightening take on the Sleepy Hollow legend. Even though you know how it will end, it is still scary. The atmosphere and graphics are good (not perfectly realistic). Game isn't too long, but just long enough.
I would play the free trial before buying. It is worth the money for the first go, but after that the story can get a little boring (after playing 2 or 3 times).
I recommend this game!

This was a great game. Worth any price! The back and forth between scenes got a little frustrating, but it was worth it. Long gameplay, tough puzzles and HO scenes (though not impossible), very creepy story. I love all the Mystery Case File games. This one is more real than the others and I definitely felt like a hero at the end. Very well done.
The graphics may appear plain to some people, but that is only because it takes place in a snowy atmosphere so everything is in muted colors. It is still beautiful. The music and sounds creeped me out.
I recommend this game!

Blue Tea games is the best! I guarantee you will love this game! It is HO and puzzle and the graphics are to die for. But get the collector edition as there are tons of extra goodies.
Be sure to check out all the Dark Parables games and play them in order. They rock as well. Get the collectors edition for all Blue Tea games. It is worth it. There are hours of extra game-play on the CO's.
I recommend this game!

I have only played the free trial a few times, but this is a pretty hard and very fun game. I'm still at war with myself as to whether I should buy the full version or not because carnival/circus type stuff creeps me out.
I think this is worth the purchase if you are not afraid of circuses.
Also, Madame Fate makes a cameo appearance in MCF: Dire Grove (another awesome game).
I recommend this game!
