The 7th Guest: 25th Anniversary Edition

This must have been a surprise in the year it was released. I can see it, 3D spooky house, with fun 3D spookiness abounding. [i]Oooh[/i]!~~~ a ghost in the painting! Be warned, the puzzles are mostly like 'eh'. There's the piano one where you have to click over to a sequence of 171 piano keys in a row without missing or do it again. There's plenty of slide puzzle - but a twist! - now it's a harder more convoluted slide puzzle! /tile flip. There's chess puzzles! All in all it's not like there's that many puzzles altogether, but I found they were either nice and fun and kind of easy enough, or, more often, tedious and irritating (or purely a bit tame). I know there's a logic, but figuring it out seems an even bigger hassle than spending the 10 mins to an hour switching stuff over on intuition! Did not mostly like the puzzles, but felt guilty for the sentiment when the fun ones say hi. On the other hand, the music, theming, the visual style, and the voice acting pull up each puzzle into a worthy set piece even when said puzzle is not (most of the time) curious. Excellent music, by the way, the credits song is a classic (IMO). yyyyup. *thumbs up* Oh at some point loading a save didn't work for me in the anniversary version, but when I loaded autosave instead it did work, so oh well.

difficult puzzles and a great game for it's time.

There are games that stay over years...unfortunately, the 7th Guest aged badly. I played years ago, and it looked marvellous with the FMV scenes, on the old CRT monitor I had. I was young, and this kind of games looked sooo modern, with multiple CDs, true actors. Now, you can say anything bad about this game: the video resolution is poor, the puzzles are confusing (imho) and the story is pretty hard to understand clearly. But it has one thing it lacked in the original version: the italian subtitles!! So, if you felt missing a good slice of the game when you played the 7th Guest years ago, NOW it's the time to get this title and spend hours trying to solve difficult puzzles in the eerie Stauf's mansion! Ahahahahahahahahaha!

this game's puzzles and everything else sucks. i suffered through the entire game for the knife puzzle to not show up even after verifying I did all puzzles. i suffered for nothing.

Esse jogo é perfeito; é tudo o que tenho a dizer.

This game is good only if you play it with the free Legacy Edition DLC, something about the remaster removes the feel that the original version has. Still a good game if you enjoy puzzle games.

A good return to classic point and click gaming. Plays pretty well even on a banger of a system. Good puzzles that sometimes can be annoying in that way that puzzles usually are. But still good times.

Jogo dos anos 90 que me serviu mais como uma nostalgia. Havia jogado na época e gostei de ter zerado. Uma pena que essa versão não deu para obter todas as conquistas, pois tem um bug que crasha o jogo após o final dos créditos. Então não é possível obter a conquista da casa aberta.
