Any good?

Not sure if this game is any good. Played The Lost Crown and loved it though.

Too pricey for a "buy it out of curiosity" game. 15 euro/$ should do it though.

I honestly thought it was outstanding. I've played both of the previous Dark Fall games and The Lost Crown and enjoyed them all. As an adventure game, Dark Fall: Lost Souls is just as high quality as the developer's previous efforts. The puzzles are well constructed and the environment is a compelling one to explore. One key difference: in my opinion, the previous Dark Fall games and The Lost Crown primarily kept to the traditional ghost story vibe: dark, creepy locales where subtle visual cues and unsettling sounds produce the feeling of fear. In this game, the horror is more "up front" and some of the visuals have a decidedly Silent Hill feel to them. The story itself is also much darker than the one presented in the The Lost Crown. Even so, if you enjoyed The Lost Crown and the idea of exploring a haunted train station and hotel in the dark of night appeals to you, I'm fairly certain you'd enjoy this title.

Thanks Winter Rain. I'll try it.

Did you buy it yet?

i bought it as it's on sale and I"m really REALLY enjoying it. It reminds me a lot of Myst and the old style point and click games like The Neverhood (one of the greatest games EVER) but.. creepy =)

well I think I'm running into an error or something in the very beginning so I don' know - but I'm also not too terribly good at these games. I'll let you know later?

I'm hoping somebody can answer this. Is this game a point and click like scratches? Or is it free moment simlar to amnesia, penumbra, etc.

The game is point and click, like Scratches.
