An English Haunting offers a genuinely charming trip into early 19th-century England, and it's the atmosphere that carries the whole experience. The local color is beautifully realized, and the game does a lovely job weaving in the social and philosophical discourses of the period — you really feel like you're moving through that specific historical moment rather than a generic period backdrop. Mechanically, it's clean and uncluttered, no unnecessary fuss getting in the way of exploration. That said, a few things held it back from being a real standout for me. The balance leans far too heavily on dialogue and too lightly on puzzles — for an adventure game, I wanted more moments where I actually had to think rather than just click through conversations. Difficulty overall is quite low, which compounds that issue. There are also simply too many characters, and most of them stay fairly surface-level; I never felt I got to know anyone beyond their basic function in the plot. The lack of voice acting doesn't help here either — with spoken dialogue I think I'd have connected to the cast much more easily, since text alone left a lot of the character work feeling flat. The central mystery — tracking down the professor — also fizzles rather than resolves. Him simply turning up in an asylum by the end feels like a shortcut rather than a satisfying payoff, and the story's conclusion in general left me wanting more closure. Overall: a good-looking, well-researched period piece with real atmospheric strengths, let down by shallow characters, low challenge, and an ending that doesn't quite stick the landing. Recommended for the setting and mood, tempered expectations for the mystery itself.

The adventure games this dev makes have an impressive amount of spritework in the many different locations you end up passing through. The puzzles in this one are very straightforward but charming, I doubt you'd end up getting stuck on any of them. I love how much effort is made to make this 'historically' authentic with period references to horror authors and entertainment in the 1800s and very early 1900s. Overall, An English Haunting is a beautifully made pixel adventure game that approaches the topic of interdimensional horror very tastefully. I'd definitely recommend it.

Great point and click game. Beautiful pixel art and animations. Set in 1907 in England, the plot follows an investigation into the disappearance of a collegue, as well as investigating paranormal phenomena. You visit a range of locations and the puzzles are about right in terms of difficulty. The game is quite dialogue heavy, but I enjoyed the dialogue and the characters (my only gripe was there were a couple of anachronistic Americanisms in the English). The music is a selection of real music from the time period. I can't wait to see the next game from Postmodern Adventures, he has been making the best point & click adventures in recent years, always with spooky/paranormal stories.

A highly enjoyable adventure. Puzzles are nicely balanced and progress feels natural throughout. An interesting story, very well written. Definitely worth your time if you enjoy point and click adventures, and the supernatural. Hoping we get a sequel.

I am a sucker for point and click games, but that doesn't mean I recommend them all. This one, yes, play it, love it, come back for more in the form of their other creations. I loved the story (follow up game coming?!), the puzzles were good without being convoluted (which is an easy trap to fall into), and I thought the artwork was fantastic. Took me about 10 hours to get through, but to be fair, I was streaming it, so reading out the dialogue. Probably take the average gamer 6-8 hours? It's worth every second. Especially if you like a little spooky atmosphere too.
