Beat Grisly Manor last night. Not really grisly. Had three kids sitting around me helping... It was a fun family activity. Only took an hour or so. Going to buy Lost City and do the same...also the Broken Sword games. Any others that might provide good family adventure solving fun?
I think you're really going to like Lost City as will your kids. For family adventure stuff I think The Mystery Lighthouse 2 is pretty good (definitely not the same level of quality as grisly/lost city) but pretty good. The Mystery Of Crimson Manor which is a little too "inspired" by the lost city, is a good game (better than the Mystery Lighthouse games in my opinion). Cryptic Keep is really good also - better than the Mystery Lighthouse stuff. I totally recommend getting the free room escape game DOOORS - each "room" is just a puzzle on how to open the door - but it is really fun game to play with the kids. My kids (4 and 6) really got into it (as did I), and I couldn't believe how much it got their problem solving skills working. Also, try any of the bored.com escape games (preferably not the 3d ones). They are free and my kids and I have fun figuring them out.
There are a lot of apps like Dooors. My son usually ends up taking my phone off me once new levels come out. He likes to better his mum
The only downside so far are the graphics. I don't know if it's just me but they seem kinda fuzzy. Should not have played Snow Hill first because I think that spoilt me a bit as everything was crystal clear.
Lol I had the puzzle all misunderstood. It's nothing like the ones from Closed Room. I just overlooked the clue needed to solve it .
Just an FYI... We plan to update the graphics with full resolution in our first update. We originally were preparing a separate HD version...but we've decided to include the HD graphics into the original. The HD graphics are 4 times the current resolution and will be crystal clear on iPads. Thanks for the feedback everyone on The Haunt. Cheers!
I'm finding the puzzles impossible to complete due to the size of the screen. I think it's suitable for ipad but no phone. Anyone else having the same issue? If this continues I may ask for a refund.
Good to hear, hopefully it won't be too long before the update comes out New release Escape Game: Hospital. Looks like the classic point n click with a satchel for your finds.
New BFG in Canadian app store: Age of Enigma: the secret of the sixth ghost Graphics are cartoon style but well drawn. Mostly adventure and puzzles from what I remember of the PC version which I played a while ago. I don't think there were any true hidden object scenes. Some might consider the game too "girly" as you play a young female medium who must help six ghosts find peace and redemption. Gamezebo reviews of PC version said gameplay was on the short side.
Puzzles seem very small on iPhone so I will just have to wait until the update comes out and pray that the graphics improve a lot
It feels like we were talking about this a while back, but there is a release thread for Atlantis 2 HD (and non-HD). Is this the game that has been around from a couple of different publishers?
There was Atlantis: The New World, which I think was the one we had discussions about last time. I'm pretty sure there have been at least 3 or 4 different Atlantis adventure games, and I don't think they were all named the same as what they were on the PC. Nothing like trying to confuse potential buyers
I'm sure I haven't seen this one on ios before, looking at the screenshots. Will wait a while because they always seem to put them on sale not long after release
