Community Insight:
Adore the games love the puzzles Beware the family reunion.
This is absolutely, positively the best game we have ever played. ( and we have been playing these games since the 1990s)The atmosphere of the game was totally spooky, the music made it even more so. The story was great! Exploring all the rooms was cool as well as exploring each family member. We usually hate puzzles and mini games, but these were also excellent! The games and puzzles were unique to the game. They were interesting and challenging, but also made sense, and if you cant get it, you can skip. You felt rewarded after completing them! (not like you wanted to tear your hair out like other games. And the game was long, we really felt like we got our moneys worth! If we had one small criticism, it would be that we could not get the puzzle pieces to turn (must be a glitch), but no big deal because you could just skip it, although its a shame. This was a great, great game and we hope we can find more exactly like this in the future. This is what game playing should be! Thank you so much to everyone involved in making it.
We are so mad and sad that you have to pay we always love these games but Im so sad that you got to pay Im a child we cant pay can you plsssssssssss we beg you make them all free plsssthere good games tho we love them.
Definitely recommend this game if you like these types. It was one of our favorites. Graphics were great. It was challenging and the story was entertaining. Really well done.
We play lots of hidden item games and this was one of the best Ive played. We really enjoyed this game. Cant wait for the next one. Its one of those (You must play) if you enjoy hidden item games.
We've just unlocked it, so it was holding our interest so far. Smooth play, cool scenery, interesting plot so far, fast teleporting, creepy music and sound effects are fun, decent acting, games and hobs. We like this series so we think this will be another good purchase.
Very fun and challenging. The storyline is a little tragic, but its really worth playing (and, honestly, a shrink is definitely not necessary). All of the Phantasmat games are very engaging and a lot of fun.
One of our favorite hidden object games.
Loved this game really good graphics and a good storyline. We would definitely recommend.
Haven't played much. So far, it's good.
We tried everything to bring the audio on but nothing works.
The game would be good if you could see anything. Its very difficult to see the text or the words and definitely a lot of the items are too small to see. Also you need more skips. There are too many sections we have to sit through with long dialogue. Every section of dialogue should be skippable.
Enjoyable Some objects were difficult to move Some didnt register when we touched them But all in all it was fun.
Its like they are trying so hard to make a creepy, disturbing game that they forgot it WAS a game. Not many puzzles, and the ones included were very easy. It seemed light on hops too. Very creepy, but we felt the music didnt go with it somehow. Really wanted to like this game, but it fell short. Warning: it is very disturbing and macabre.
The game seems good, but the intro was over so quickly, we really can't say if it's good or not. For most of the free selection, there is no map. After we got it, we took a look and we THINK it allows teleporting. The HO scene was good. The scenes had hidden objects, which is fun, but they also needed items that we hadn't found when the game was so quickly finished. Our concern is that the short free game indicates a short full game. Who wants to pay for a short game? Not us.
There is no custom setting for difficulty and the info took about 10 min. Too short to judge the game so we wont be purchasing it.
..if that is your style of game, this game is for you (it wouldnt hurt if you visited a shrink sooner than later too). Im giving the 2 stars for its playability; it wasnt a bad game in that category. The content was a different story all together. First off, we enjoy a good macabre game as much as the next guy. In this case, it crosses a line when it enters the murdering and torturing of children category. This is not & shouldnt be considered entertainment & has no place in a widely available game like this. Its shameful that big fish & the devs would promote this game.
