I tried this game yesterday. It's a really short one. I got over half the game completed in the trial version so I passed on the purchase.

Beautiful adventure game with some hog and interactive hog. I love the game! I hate straight hogs burned out on them after years of playing them. Graphics are beautiful, storyline interesting, the voice overs are rare but enjoyable wish there was more voice in the game.

I played 10 minutes and knew I would buy the game. It would have been better if Isabel the ghost had ghostly speech we can hear. Map could have been better not much help other than knowing where you are at. If you don't like adventure games you might not like this game, however I love adventure games and the more the better.

I seldom buy a game that just hands me a list of items that serves no purpose, LOL like plungers for instance if I don't have to unclog a toilet don't tell me to find a plunger!

Some people are complaining of longer than usual downloading of next screen but I had no issue of quickness loading the next screen, maybe it depends on your computer and newness I don't know. I don't know about the length of it but I usually take longer to finish than the people who complain of short length.

lol

I get your meaning, yet even the best HOG adventure games don't require the player to use most objects that a scene requires you to find. Yet that's an Interesting example; if a game ever includes it to find a clue, I'll think of your posting. snicker

I'm playing this and gotten to the lab where I have to make Dipple Oil. I've followed the walkthrough to the letter and it won't trigger me to take her bone? I try and it asks Hannah if it's okay, but nothing shows up? Hmmm?

Compared to many of the recent releases from BFG, this one is a big loser. I'm another one that finds the loading between scenes tiresome, especially since the game requires that you keep returning to certain areas. May be appealing to someone new to IHOGs. Graphics aren't bad and the story is interesting. But can't make up for the frustrating gameplay.

It loaded all right for me, certainly not great, but liveable. However, I have to agree that the gameplay gets in the way of the other features. This had some redeeming features, but I passed on it as well.

wave Butterflybabe the next game plunger you see in a list of HOGS thanks for thinking of me. lol

I just finished the game and it took me 5 hours to do so maybe more. I loved the game and can't understand the bad ratings some are giving the game.

Interesting puzzles, and I thought the graphics were good showing the inside of a castle. I was sorry to see it end.

I read some reviews trashing the game and saying it was too short. Well at least not for me it wasn't. Some are complaining the game is too easy, well I take offense at that I am a good game player and had to consult the hint section a few times. I love games like this.

I found the storyline interesting everyone knows the story of Frankenstein I love the twist in the story. I loved the card game and wish they would make it where we can play it whenever we want to do so.

Some complained of the time it takes to load the next screen level for me it took 2 seconds sometimes 3 seconds. Now what else would I be doing with 2 or 3 seconds of my life? LOL I love the way the game keeps track of your achievements of finding the ghosts personal items. I did not find 3 items at the end of the game.

:wave Hi Widget and TinaGoss if you haven't found the answer to where to get the bone for formula. Don't read if you don't want to know where Isabella body is. big spoiler alert below.

Click to reveal..
[/spoiler]
Isabella body is in the wall of the lab supply room. Check out the crack in the wall on the left. You use her bone.[spoiler]

Looney4labs, the link is down at the moment, but will certainly look later,

sherryah, I have done all what you say, clicked all over that 'hole' ans skeleton, and all that comes up all the time is the dialog of them talking.
there is a big discussion on BF Forum about this, most are saying you have to play it twice, find that annoying.

I use to like the games where you had to 'save' as you went along, then at least you could go back to certain stops and start again.


Keep going, the feeling great at the end.

Sherryah, can you remember if you had a problem with this part???
I am on the verge of deleting it, shame because so far I have enjoyed it,


Keep going, the feeling great at the end.

I have done it, played it again in different player, and this time it was easy,

so if anyone is stuck, begin again.


Keep going, the feeling great at the end.
