  This game is a lot of fun. My only complaint is that it doesn't have achievements or collectibles. Other than that it's a great game.

  I'd seen mixed reviews for this series but point and click adventure games are usually my jam so I was hopeful. The first games was okay but had quality of life issues that the second game immediately improved so I was optimistic that the third game would improve further. Boy was I wrong. 1) The map was effectively useless. Several times the map did not indicate objectives that I had the means to complete so I had to wander around trying to remember what objectives I found two memories ago to try to figure out where I could proceed or just give up and click hint. 2) The puzzles are infuriating. Game 2's main problem was that a lot of the puzzles were tedious and that was not fixed at all in this game, in fact it got worse. All puzzles can be divided into two categories: infuriatingly difficult and stupidly tedious. Basically any game involving an AI was awful, even on casual it made every optimal move possible and 9/10 time the 'info" tab wasn't super helpful for understanding the mechanics so it was trial and error. Other than those, the hard puzzles were those that you either got within 10 moves or made one mess up and took another 10 minutes to solve. And any puzzles that were "easier" were tedious, meaning they a) have obvious solutions but took a lot of moves or b) were repeated in several rounds. By Halfway through the Siberian memory I just clicked skip for every puzzle because I couldn't care enough. Completely ruined the game experience and the series because 100% I will not be playing the others.

  Pretty decent old game! And not too short.

  As far as puzzle games go, this is a solid one with great HOGs, but I didn't really enjoy it. The story and setting is all over the place, and several cultures are mixed together (f.i. you see Native American shamans and Aztec totems in Siberia). There is no music, the map doesn't show if there is something to do at a certain location, there are some oversights (f.i. the game where you have to arrange numbers between 1..4 in a table has multiple solutions, but the game accepts only a single one as correct). Sometimes the game starts to stutter to the point where it's unplayable, and only a reinstall solves it.

  Your nephew Brandon is in trouble. Your sister has asked for your help to solve whatever is troubling him. Unfortunately, the supernatural is involved. Again. Apparently, he made a wish with an old woman in the forest… always a bad idea. Seriously, it seems your family can’t avoid supernatural threats… Good thing they have you… Plot is decent, HO scenes fun, and minigames challenging. Still suggest the bundle.

  Well... I'd like to know why the gray scaled down so much, alas I will never know as the last game failed. Ignoring the from riches to norm jump and why they have walls that look older than gray mansion... MY... this game seems to actually work, the script is still awful though which is sad because the story is good as ever hints has been updated so they actualy make sense yet they aren't interactive as in other games ;/ Eitherway a massive improvment on the last game and I think any flaws can be overlooked.

  Well-written game, nicely plotted graphics and slightly more challenging than most HO games
