City Legends: The Ghost of Misty Hill Collector's Edition

[h1] HEY GUYS, THE TREATMENT WORKED, I FEEL GREAT![/h1] Author, Michael Ring, checked himself into a treatment center, but he'll never check out. Welcome to Misty Hill Treatment Center, founded by Noel Green who unfortunately passed away, in fact, it seems that lately, a lot of people have passed away at this facility...but didn't you just see him walking down the hall? If I were judging this game on the story alone, it would get a solid 4/5 Stars. The problem is, after completing the first chapter, you are driven nuts with repetitive tasks that make the game a chore to complete. [b] Collectibles & Morphing Objects [/b] Domini Games always sticks with the same boring collectibles & morphing Objects...but at least they still have them. I will say that upgrading the Boudoir office items was more interesting than what they have offered in the past! 14 Michael's Drafts, 14 Morphing Medical Equipment, and 70 Zoom-Zone Prescription Signatures to purchase 14 Upgrades in the Boudoir. [b] Hidden Object Scenes [/b] There are 11 Hidden Object Scenes +6 in the CE Bonus Chapter. These were some of the most uninteresting Hidden Object Scenes I've ever come across! They are located in boring locations, and they seem dark, and somewhat hazy. I'll be honest, I found myself opting for the alternate Match 3 game because it seemed less boring, and much faster! The HO's vary with Interactive Listed Item Finds, Keywords in Sentence Finds, Silhouetted Shape Finds, Multiples of the Same Object, Swatches, Riddled Descriptions, and Missing Vowels (that were super easy).   [b] Alternate Match 3 Game [/b] There is an alternate Match 3 Game available, which still doesn't allow you to make consecutive matches quickly because you have to wait for all tiles to stop falling before you can make the next match which makes the game super boring. It's always the same exact M3 game, the boards never change, and the icons never change! They never add obstacles or new features to make it progress in difficulty. FYI: one of the achievements requires you to play the alternate Match 3 game in place of the HOS. (just once) [b] Mini-Games [/b] There are 25 Mini-Games +7 in the CE Bonus Chapter. You can choose to play them in an Easy or Hard difficulty mode. Most of the mini-games are back-to-back, but you can skip them. I actually enjoyed several of the mini-games, although none of the games were original.   [b] Bonus Chapter [/b] Who ya gonna call? Ghost Writer! The Bonus Chapter takes us on another ghost hunt to an abandoned theater where a series of murders took place. You are a famous author who teams up with Carin Oldbridge, an aspiring director to write a story about the myths surrounding the theater. There are 7 additional Mini-Games and 6 Hidden Object Scenes that take place over 9 additional scene locations. You will continue your search for the final 5 Morphing Medical Equipment items, 4 Michael's Drafts,  and 10 Prescription Signatures, which allow you to purchase the remaining Boudoir items. [b] Collector's Edition Extras [/b] 10 Wallpapers (basically giant photos of each character), 15 Concept Art Pictures, 5 Music Soundtracks, 28 Movie Video Cutscenes, 35 Achievements, 20 Replayable Mini-Games, 21 Replayable Hidden Object Scenes, 14 Michael's Drafts, 14 Morphing Medical Equipment, 70 Zoom-Zone Prescription Signatures to purchase 14 Upgrades in the Boudoir, 4 Main Chapters, +Bonus Chapter, and a Built-In Strategy Guide.

Der Kauf hat sich gelohnt. Die Geschichte fand ich persönlich nicht soo toll, aber die Mini-Spiele und Rätsel sind sehr vielfältig und teilweise anspruchsvoll. Einzige Kritikpunkte: Teilweise schlechte Anweisungen für Mini-Spiele, da muss man erstmal herausfinden, wie es geht, aber vielleicht ist das ja auch so gewollt? Ich habe mich manchmal etwas geärgert, weil Dinge sich schlecht platzieren ließen. Generell werde ich dieses Spiel wieder spielen, einfach ein muss, denn es ist sehr komplex. Beim zweiten oder dritten Anlauf macht es dann bestimmt noch mehr Spaß, wenn man besser weiß, wo es lang geht 😉

fun game, puzzles were a difficult great story line

This game is crap. I do not have items to move to the next step and all the hints point me to thing I need but do not have. I am not having fun.

Do Games does as Do Games do. It's another typical game from Do Games Limited, whom I guess have changed their name from Domini Games. This company's games are more difficult than games I've played that were published by Big Fish or Artifex Mundi... and not for good or satisfying reasons. "City Legends: The Ghost of Misty Hill" is constructed like the other Do Games I've played. As I make progress, the playable area grows larger and larger. Rooms have interactions requiring items that I don't acquire until sometimes AN HOUR later. The same applies to items. My inventory balloons with random items that may be useless for a while. With so many rooms and so many items, there's just too much going on. It's not possible for me to keep everything in my head at once. Do Games keep using this design, and it just isn't casual and smooth to play through! I started CL:TGoMH on "advanced" difficulty, but I knocked it all the way down to "casual" to get a tolerable experience. I'd gain a new item that doesn't have an obvious use, then have to backtrack through every available room to find what kind of whackadoodle interaction the item was meant for. It felt slow and tedious to play like this. On "casual" difficulty, the map indicates the active zones with available interactions. Because of the way Do Games designs their HOAGs, this feature is essential to not waste tons of time. Look at me pretending to be a game design analyst. 🙄 There were more notes I'd written that were specifically about CL:TGoMH, but would you look at that - I've run out of space in this review. Thumbs up because it plays fine on "casual."

This was a fun relaxing game to play. Nice collectibles, HOPs and mini games. I recommend it.

Странно, что эта классная игра осталась почти не замеченной у любителей подобного жанра! Здесь весьма интригующий сюжет, не банальные головоломки и квесты, в общем всё, что нужно для "поломать голову" на досуге!)

Super de beau jeu: détective, objets cachés, bonus , etc. belle histoire. Bravo 9.5 / 10

в сравнении с другими играми, которые мне удалось пройти от этого разработчика, данная часть вполне себе неплохая и приемлемая. как минимум, с анимациями тут дела обстоят гораздо лучше. головоломки неплохие, интересные, но немножко кринжанула с сюжета, хотя ладно, тут на вкус и цвет товарища нет. не скажу, что игра долгая, т.к. основной сюжет был пройден за 3,5ч (некоторую часть времени я просто отходила), а бонусная глава вышла всего на один час. вполне сойдет для одного вечера.
