The interminable winter weather has me spending a lot more time than usual playing pc games. Thank goodness for Big Fish. "Escape from Lost Island" is one of the most enjoyable HOG's I've played this month. The story is interesting without being tedious. I lose patience with the sort of storytelling that involves lengthy dialogue or a lot of reading. This game strikes a perfect balance. The scenery is very nicely done and the background music is pleasant and relaxing. Gameplay is challenging without being frustrating. I always like it when puzzles can be skipped, as is the case with this game. That being said, except for a few, the puzzles aren't so difficult as to spoil the fun.
I missed seeing this one on Big Fish and am glad I heard about it here. A nice break from some of the more intense games I've been playing lately. Thank you, Ana.
