I am currently downloading a demo for it. I must admit, it looks pretty cool.
If anyone who's played it has any thoughts, feel free to share!

I love adventure games. I've been playing Nancy Drew, Drakan: The Ancient Gates, Zelda games, Tomb Raider,etc.
I only like either Nancy Drew type point and click or ones like Tomb Raider where you can see your character. Nothing too far away camera wise, though.
I want a game that won't be over in 2 hours. I'm considering Dreamfall: The Longest Journey, though I'm not sure if it will play on Win 7?
I just have trouble figuring out what to get. I don't always go by reviews as everyone is different but I would like to try games that give adventure/mystery and aren't over in the blink of an eye.

Dreamer, our staff reviews like the one I linked to detail the gameplay that you will encounter so that you can decide for yourself if it is something that interests you rather than just a personal opinion. Ana

No, I have not. I love scary ghost games though. I was worried the black/white gameplay would not be fun though?

Yeah, this is helpful The issue I have with bigfishgames for example or even amazon is that a lot of games look really cool and then I find out that they're just hidden object games. I'd rather have something like Nancy where you are doing a point a click and find stuff or just a point and click adventure. I don't know really how to look for that because the results are almost always hidden obj.

On Big Fish you need to look under Large File Games for the adventure games. Ana

I much preferred the first Return To Mysterious Island to the second The Lost Crown did suffer from stilted character voicing in parts but I thought it was a really good adventure nonetheless. [And for me the black and white definitely added ambience ]

Hey Dreamer, Sounds like the Carol Reed games might be right up your alley. you might want to check them out. Its one of my favorite series. As for RTMI2, I recently started it and am enjoying it, but feel that the first one WAS better. 2 is good too, just not AS good. IMO of course. Oh, yeah, Im also another that enjoyed the "Lost Crown" and felt the black & white added to the creepy atmosphere.
