I was captivated by the story in this adventure. The beginning is mature content because you witness a shooting and a knife stabbing. I was so intrigued I couldn't break from playing. When you go back into the past you witness a boy doll come to life via the blood ruby. Keep your eyes on him...You get double the inventory items for solving HOS/Puzzles and a map. Distubingly different and brilliantly conceived. Bonus tells back story of the blood ruby.

What a wonderful adventure this truely was. Dr. Cogglethorpe wants you to be afraid of his mechanical maid. You soon find out that without her help the game cannot be played.....<giggle> I loved the gizmo's, gadget's, and constructing the elevator. This Fantastic Creation brings pure elation! Adored it. I wish I had discovered this one sooner.

What begins with the abduction of Bobby on a train soon turns into an adventure you will never forget. This is so obscure and wonderful, I can't describe it any better than other rave reviews. This Elephant game was challenging for me but you have to play this to experience it. I don't know how in the world they conceived this one! It's a mind melter for sure. I loved everything about this jewel.....

I really loved this game. Maybe I'm the lone horseman of the apocalypse here, but this dark adventure is fascinating. The game has few HOS. Tired of looking thru piles of stuff for inventory? This game is exciting, yet creepy too. I really think Elephant games hit the mark. Oh and Louis the bat is part of your inventory to use (so cute). 5.5 stars!

Oh heavens this game should recieve a higher rating! ERS takes you outside the box in this adventure. The clues to the murders are in the diary and the conclusion of the story. I recommend the CE version since the bonus content definitly reveals the murderer. It was thrilling just like the other Grim Facade games.

This was an awesome adventure. It's back to school for these college kids and the professor really creats a disaster that you have to solve. I was impressed and spellbound by the quality. HOS are going to surprise gamers! I didn't want it to end. So glad bonus play included! I hope to see more from these developers.....

This game is flawless! It took me hours and hours to complete, which is great. Elephant games give you loads of inventory and puzzles to figure out. I had so much fun using my special powers and Elf is too cool. The only critique is that I dont enjoy mini puzzles where you connect pipes, circuits, etc to create single connection. I also dont care for the puzzle where you have move ropes, wires so that none of them touch each other. I get frustrated with both of these puzzles, which are almost always in games. Played CE version wish I had played Four Aces prior. I will now.....

These developers have done it again. I really loved this adventure. I think the folks at Eipix are raising the bar for HOPA games. Kudos to Big Fish for offering excellent entertainment at an affordable price!

This adventure is FLAWLESS!!! The story is so sinister it ranks as my favorite in the Dark Dimensions trilogy. Reading your journal is key. Evil Sharon Holloway does something unspeakable to her daughter Zoe. Third degree burns to Zoe's face using wax, and that's not all Holloway does with the wax. Reach the museum and discover the ritual. Excellent tasks,puzzles, HOS interactive. Bravo!!! (hands clapping). LOL

I enjoyed this game from beginning until conclusion. It reminds me a lot of ERS games. When the adventure ends, there is mention of saving Tim; THIS WAS ONLY THE BEGINNING! I am now searching for the follow up game from this developer, if there is one?
I recommend this game!
