Really great remake of a classic. In fact, Id say the original nes/appleII shadowgate is practically required reading for this game. I couldnt get anywhere in this until I went back and played the original. My one complaint though is that all the deaths feel similar. They missed an opportunity to include some really gruesome waxworks-esk death scenes rather than still relying on text. The cutscenes also dont jive thematically with the rest of the game.
Remake of an early Macintosh first-person point-and-click adventure from 1987. Nice graphics that had a painting-like quality to them. Lots of screens to explore. Atmospheric with good music. Puzzles were pretty good with lots of possibilities. And if you play in classic mode at journeyman or master, there will be more and harder ones. Lots of red herring items at difficulties other than the default normal. You also encounter creatures but each one has to be dealt in a simple different way, like an adventure, not like a RPG. The interface was functional but was clumsy when it came to using an item from the inventory on something on the scene. You can easily switch between the new and somewhat retro graphics (think pixelated), and a talking skull provides hints. This is a remake done right.
