Explore reviews from Steam users sharing their experiences and what they love about the game.
The game worked and had some good puzzles, so I will recommend this because that's not something you can always take for granted. However, it wasn't good. The story was awful, I didn't like the protagonist, and the "twist ending" with the psychopath turning out to be a psychopath was not even funny enough to justify itself.
Another surprisingly very good hidden object game with a great spooky atmosphere. Bit of a shame it's not a direct sequel to the first one, but it's a decent story nonetheless with good characters, even if the main villain was cartoonish to the extent of being slightly boring near the end. Also a shame we'll probably never get another game in the series, but hey. Wouldn't say it's worth the asking price, but definitely worth picking up and playing if it's on sale for about £3 or so.
