I've been on the fence with the games in this series. This review is based on the entire game plus bonus chapter. I liked the first Fatal Evidence game the best. This one was lacking somehow. I literally almost fell asleep a few times. This could have been so much better, but alas, it was not. HOS were weird. Puzzles were ho hum. Storyline was really lacking. It seemed to go on and on and on. Te bonus chapter, (don't get me started), was just awful. I was just about ready to exit and delete the game when the bonus chapter came to an abrupt ending. I couldn't even tell you what it was about. Demo this one for yourself. Some will love it, some will not. Personally, not a big fan at all.
I love the Dark Romance series. Even though the games are on the very easy side, there's something about them that holds my interest and I must buy one as soon as it comes out. This latest game was very good. Played the whole game over a whole day. Lots of back and forth. This one took some thinking, however little, but some :) Game explanations were a little on the rough side, but I do love their HOS in these games. The bonus chapter was kind of weak. I'm still giving this a 5 star rating which doesn't happen often. Please put your favorite game where the space is provided. I love looking up older games that I haven't played and checking them out.
Took me awhile to play this one. I don't like to write reviews until I play the entire game. This was pleasantly surprising. Something very new and different and it really kept my attention, even through the bonus chapter. There are the usual MH symbols to find plus collectibles. I sure hope they come out with a series for this game. Due to the current pandemic, I've been playing many many games. I was resorting to the old games I have stored up. So glad I took the time and played this one.
I briefly played the demo and thought, why not? Well, within 10 minutes of play after I purchased, I deleted the game. This had to be the worst, if not one of the worst, games I have ever played. I really dislike how the cursor was shown and really everything about the game. I will never play another puppetshow game. Also, glitches within the first 10 minutes. That's not acceptable to me.
I'm amazed at the rave reviews, which is the main reason I bought this. IMO this series has been done, finished, done again, and over. It's the usual save 3 souls. Nothing new at all here, but the story line is utterly awful. The bonus chapter, for me, was glitchy and kept booting me out so I ended up just uninstalling and ending my play. It kept booting me out and taking me back to the beginning of the bonus chapter, so I can't give an honest review of how that was. Fairly short game. Honestly, I was happy it was over when it was. There were some morphing objects to find, but that's about all.
This was the first Ms. Holmes game I played. I'm right in the middle with it. Not good, not bad. Just mediocre. Review is based on the full game plus the bonus chapter. I found this game to drag on quite a bit. Mini Games were super easy. If I can figure them all out as a non-game loving person, they are easy! I'm not sure if I'm just so bored I'm playing too many games, but I'm missing the games of the past where I couldn't wait to play and was excited when a new one came out. Bonus chapter again was just ok. Short and to the point, whatever that point may have been.
I love the Haunted Hotel series. Some have been great, others, just so-so. This was very average. Everything about it dragged on and on. Seems the writers had a plot but it was too narrow to make an entire game out of it. Kind of liked it better with James without a fiance. Even her lines were average. The bonus chapter was mediocre. This is one you'll have to demo. There are lots of dark areas --- darker than usual--- for the HOS. I had a headache by the end. I'm not going to recommend or not recommend. This is one of those pick your poison games. I really bought it just because I have all the others.
So, this game received quite a few great reviews. Maybe I'm missing something here. Not sure if I've ever given a game one star. If I could give it zero I would. This is neither a psychological thriller or spooky. It's a royal mess. Buying the CE was a total waste of money. Please someone, anyone, put out a game worthy of playing !!!
I've had this game for awhile and just played it this weekend. I was so excited since there were so many positive reviews. And the spookiness was right up my alley. Well, something went amiss. I found this game so tedious. Characters with no depth at all. I honestly didn't care what happened to either the husband or wife. Weird puzzles that made no sense. Actually a lot of HOS didn't make sense. I'm hoping the next game in this series is better since I bought that one too. Even the bonus chapter here was horrendous. Sorry Dreadful Tales. Was just dreadful to play.
I really liked the first 2 games in this series. This one fell very flat with me. Very tangled story line which made the whole game nonsensical. Felt like I was simply on a mission to collect pieces for all characters. I usually look forward to the bonus chapter, however, even that was a mess. I really think they should do away with the "bad" Anna Grey as she doesn't blend in well with this whole series. Having all 3 detectives is plenty. And the developers really need to think before they put a phone ringing in the background for so long. Really on a quest to find a decent game anymore !!!
