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 have had this game a long while and never commented. After playing through again. I must say I still find myself sucked in. The story in this series just gets deeper. It is intense in places and definitely not for younger audiences. Having none of the bells and whistles makes for a great, challenging game. I know I found myself stumped a couple of times and had to go online for help. But all in all I recommend this game for those seeking an intense story and very challenging puzzles.
I recommend this game!

I always look forward to this series every holiday season. I really can say every year the stories get better. This year this story was especially touching. I found all the characters charming. The puzzles were fun and not to easy or hard in regular mode. I loved the graphics and music. By far I can say Elephant games delivered again. I highly recommend all the games in this series.

I absolutely loved this game. It was so like the first adventure puzzle games that came out...the ones that made me search every part of the scene and puzzles that made me really think. And the story kept me engrossed all the way to the end, which left my jaw dropping in surprise. I can say this was truly an adventure for me! I can't wait to play the sequel. I wish BF put games like this in a category all there own so folks that like these kinds of puzzles didn't have to dig through all the others to find them.

I found this game very different from other games I've played. I really liked it because I had to actually interact with things to solve puzzles to move forward. The scenes are very clear and the story is intriguing. I liked the boxes that gave me the historical facts on the items I picked up. I found it very educational. I know many people who play this game will not like it because it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of other games. But I believe the developers of this game did a fantastic job of putting it together. If you are looking for something different and challenging (and are a history buff) I highly recommend you give this game a try. If you aren't sure you want to buy it right away play the free trial then make your decision.
I recommend this game!

I found this game enchanting. The story was captivating and the characters delightful. The scenes were beautiful and the music charmingly fairytale. The HOs were not overly easy or challenging. The other puzzles where engaging because I found some of them different than most games now coming out. I can say I found this game relaxing with a charm of its own. I will definitely be coming back and playing this game now and then.

I stumbled across this game trying to pick something different for the free game I earned. When I saw this and read the comments I thought I had nothing to lose because I was getting it free. I was totally delighted by it. I can say I found something different. I would recommend this game to everyone who loves fantasy, fairytales, magic, dragons & gnomes. I found most of the HOs were not difficult. The hand drawn scenes are beautiful and the music is just perfect! I loved the story. I noticed most several people recommended this for children but didn't specify an age. I would recommend age 8+ because you have to be able to read to complete the potions. For younger children who play with parents this is wonderful for finding the hidden objects. I highly recommend this game for the entire family!

(CE) I can say I loved every bit! Every story in this series has it's own unique tale to tell. I loved how the HOs weren't just a list but had to find items to solve mini puzzles to get the main item. The puzzles weren't to complicated and lots of them. The length of the game was long, which is good. I know at one point I had to take a break then come back later and finish. But I can say I was enthralled all the way through by the characters and story. A must for all.

Got this game on sale and after seeing the Developer made only one in this series, so I gave it a shot after reading the positive comments. I have only played 10 minutes and am hooked (I had to go to work so I'll finish it later). The graphics are clear and the music nice. I like that I had to comb around to find the stuff instead of everything just being given to me like in most games today. The HOS were a bit challenging because I had to actually look for the items, which I loved. I do recommend this game for those who want a bit of a challenge like some of the first HOS games that came out a few years ago.

While browsing I came across this game. I added it to my "interest" list, so when a free game came my way I got it. I liked the game because it was like the first games that I played years ago when I to had search everything and everything wasn't given to me. I found the scenes pretty and the music was appropriate. Even though the characters were still drawn, I was surprised to find them voiced. Another plus, was the story. It was great! I would have given the game 5 stars but found a couple of bugs: When I grabbed things out of the item bar it would exit me to the next scene. And when I got stuck and really needed the hint button it would hint me at something I'd already completed or tell me to search another area when I was in the area I needed to be in. Other than that I recommend this game to those who like a challenge.

This is one of the first games I bought when I joined BF. I found myself playing it again. This game is truly great because it is not complex or the puzzles hard. I's straight forwards HOS with a couple of different puzzles thrown in. Though some of the HOS are timed they're easy. I liked the occasional cut scene for the storyline. I can say this a great game for gamers of all levels and ages.
I recommend this game!
