Thanks. Edited, I can see the screenshots and game info just fine now, I don't know why I couldn't see the info earlier. Looks like an instant buy! Pipipitchu Well-Known Member May 4, 2013 1,644 0 0 Civil Servant Rio de Janeiro, Brazil #4 Pipipitchu, Jul 9, 2014 I beta tested this game and the other two. The first one is shorter than the others, but took me about 5 hours to finish (but I had to report bugs and things like that, so you may finish it quicker). It costs 2 dolars and the other two 3 dolars (they are longer). Gameplay you can see here http://www.pocketgamer.co.uk/r/iPad/Blackwell+1%3A+Legacy/news.asp?c=60471 It's a great point & click adventure and even the beta version was already pretty stable. I found few and non compromising bugs. If you like this kind of games you should grab all of them. They are among the best you can find on the App Store. David1953 Well-Known Member May 26, 2013 476 40 28 #5 David1953, Jul 9, 2014 Thanks for the video, Pipitpitchu. It is good to see a set of true point and click games of a more serious nature being released, and it looks as though I will be getting all three when they are released in NA tomorrow.

I already own this series on steam and I double dipped on Shivah on Steam after buying the iOS version. I don't think I'll double dip the other way since I think I'm going to play these more on pc than my iphone, but I applaud making these available to more people. jamesmcadams82 Well-Known Member Sep 4, 2012 85 2 8 #9 jamesmcadams82, Jul 10, 2014 Pretty much positive I'll be getting all of these, but just so I know what I'm letting myself in for: how do the episodes fit together? E.g. Are they separate plots where you can get extra satisfaction drawn from knowing plot points/characters mentioned in previous chapters (like books in a series), or are they episodes of one long plot that don't make sense till they're put together (like chapters in a book)? I'll be playing them in order of course, but I might pace it differently (e.g, get Walking Dead 2 & The Wolf Among Us out of the way first if I want to play them as one long narrative, or download an episode at a time and start this week if they stand alone well). coderkid Well-Known Member Nov 5, 2010 540 2 18 #10 coderkid, Jul 10, 2014 One long (episodic) story. Main characters and a few side characters are consistent throughout. Pretty much like any other episodic game. They do stand alone well though - each episode revolves around a new conflict, with the overall arch also being expanded. Excited there's an iOS port - I binge played these on PC, they're stellar. d0mino Member Oct 6, 2012 11 0 0 #11 d0mino, Jul 13, 2014 Going to check this out on the strength of Gemini Rue. Loved it so much! Hopefully this is of similar quality. dannythefool Well-Known Member Dec 16, 2010 401 0 16 Germany #12 dannythefool, Jul 13, 2014 My wife found a crashing bug in the last scene. You can interact with the Spoiler flask on the ground before it's there (invisible) . In case this happens to anyone else: You need to do something first. jamesmcadams82 Well-Known Member Sep 4, 2012 85 2 8 #13 jamesmcadams82, Jul 18, 2014 Just completed it, and I loved it. Looking forward to the commentary/extras and the rest of the series. Dazzlemi Well-Known Member Mar 14, 2010 979 4 18 #14 Dazzlemi, Sep 16, 2015 Now free... Appshopper is also wrong.
