You have created something wonderful here! The atmosphere,environments,storyline,and the sound (oh! the sound!)are all so rich. Thanks to you,I got very little sleep last night as I couldn't stop exploring and playing LC.
What a brilliant game. Just wanted to say "thanks"....who said adventure gaming is dead?

Rob is sooooo right. Also the use of colour is brilliant and gives an atmosphere second to none. I've been playing foe about 20 hours( not in one shift rotfl ) and am loving every minute yes


Has any one seen any little gray cells around as I think I've lost some? Reward for finder.

My game is still winging its way to me. I'm sure I'll agree with the rest of you when I eventually start playing. This is going to be a goodun'! grin

Its great to have such positive feedback!

I played it several times from start to finish when we beta-tested it and Inferno is right,
it was exciting and a joy to play(still waiting for my boxed copy though).
I thought it was brilliant, Jonathan has such a wonderful gift for narrative.

I feel proud and privileged to have been a part of it

I haven't gotten there yet, but I have heard Professor Oogle mentioned. I'll be listening for his voice now. lol

It's a great game so far!

Speaking of voices has anyone come across a way to adjust the sound parameters. I have just started the game and I am having a hard time understanding what Jonathon.....ER....Nigel is saying as the background noises are so high. Or is everyone using the subtitles.......or maybe its just me.

Used Subtitles here. I think it's the only options you actually have control over. Either way I didn't have trouble understanding the voices, but maybe I was subconsciously reading along?

Glad to see many people are loving the game. After my Next Life review seemed to be way off the mark of what the majority of people were thinking, I was worried my Lost Crown review might also be off the mark - LOL, looks like I was spot on.

I'm not having any troubles either Greyfuss. I do have issues with some of the ghostly voices, but i think I am supposed to.

Just got back tonight from a trip to Italy to find my copy of "The Lost Crown" waiting for me! I'm exhausted but I had to stop here and see what people are saying about it. I can't wait to start it this weekend. yay
