A fantastic detective story with a very well-written scenario which includes mystery,tragedy,love,betrayal and investigation! The ending is also in the style of good detective novels! 10/10 raven feathers
It's a little buggy, but as a sharp throwback to mystery-themed point-and-click adventure games of yesteryear, the Raven is delightful. It's well-written, and easy to navigate. Fans of Agatha Christie in particular will really get a kick out of it.
The Raven is a point-and-click adventure game with murder, theft, and plenty of unexpected turns and surprises. It feels just like an Agatha Christie crime novel. A lot of the characters, places, and story elements seem like nods to her work; there's even this older lady who's a mystery author that could basically be Agatha Christie herself. The protagonist you play as is Jakob Anton Zellner, a really likeable constable who loves mystery novels. He reminds me a lot of Christie's Hercule Poirot, just without the obsession with order and tidiness. Later in the game, you get to play as two other characters too. I thought experiencing the same events from different people's perspectives was really interesting and well done. Pretty much all the characters are well written; everyone has their role in the story, and the voice acting does a great job making them all feel genuine. The story begins with a cutscene where the ancient jewel known as the "Eye of the Sphinx" gets stolen. Everything points to The Raven, an infamous master thief who everyone thought was dead. This kicks off a chase all across Europe and the Middle East. The game has three chapters where you're investigating on a luxury train, a cruise ship, and in a museum. I was actually surprised by the ending. Usually I can figure out how detective games are going to wrap up, but this one even managed to surprise me a couple of times. [spoiler]The cliché of the evil German doctor is a bit worn out though and I could already predict it from the beginning.[/spoiler] The gameplay is mostly exploring, talking to people, and solving puzzles. The puzzles are mostly logical and usually just need you to pay attention to details rather than come up with crazy solutions or weird item combinations. They're not super hard either, which keeps you focused on the story and characters. There's some pixel hunting here and there, but you can highlight objects so it's not too bad. Visually, the game does a good job of capturing the time period. The environments have lots of details and fit the 1960s setting well. The sound and music work great with the atmosphere too. But the pacing is kind of inconsistent. The first chapter is definitely the strongest, but later parts take a while to build momentum. Another minor issue is that characters walk really slowly, and the controls feel a bit clunky at times. There are also pathing problems, where characters occasionally get stuck navigating around objects. The user interface works, but could have been more polished.

Chapter 2 and 3 are MISSING!!
I enjoyed half of the story but when it comes to the ending, I was surprised but not satisfied. It feels like there are some stuff cut from the game, maybe 'cause they were running low on cash or had to release the game ASAP. It's got a solid concept, but the delivery? Not so much. In terms of gameplay, it's a good 3D point and click game, but unfortunately, the bugs destroy the experience. Chapter 1 frustrated me so much with the camera angle, forcing me to move the character forward-backward repeatedly just to see if the game changes the camera angle miraculously. But there's more, several time happened when my character went invisible after I clicked an object. Walk in circles in an infinite loop. Delay time to next conversation or next animation. Buggy audio and animation. And there's one character that gives me Uncanny Valley vibe. Also, pitch-black areas? They're seriously pitch-black. I can't see a single environment clearly. And what was that lockpicking mechanism? Never seen a lockpicking puzzle like that. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3233544834 I can't tell should you play the original or the remastered. I'm worry if the remastered still has the same issues like the original.
[h1][b] Reseña de The Raven - Legacy of a Master Thief[/b][/h1] [h2]Resumen del Juego[/h2] The Raven - Legacy of a Master Thief es una aventura de apuntar y clic con ínfulas de novela policiaca: crímenes, misterio, detectives y ese aire noir/atmosférico que te hace sentir más inteligente… hasta que te trabas con un rompecabezas y recuerdas que solo estabas haciendo clic en todo como mapache en basurero. La propuesta es clara: seguir una historia “buena trama” con investigación, pistas y un ritmo de thriller clásico. Primera impresión: elegante, muy de “sillón, café y sospechar de absolutamente todos”. Segunda impresión: “ok, juego, ya entendí que eres misterioso, ahora déjame jugar sin que el control parcial se sienta como compromiso emocional”. [h2]El Caso: Lo Brillante y Lo Sospechoso[/h2] Lo Bueno: Historia con enfoque detectivesco y crímenes: el gancho principal y se nota Rompecabezas estilo habitación de escape: te hacen pensar (a veces demasiado) Ambientación noir y atmosférica: buen mood para investigar y desconfiar Gran banda sonora: acompaña el misterio sin gritar “mírenme, soy música” 35 logros de Steam: para los que necesitan validación digital por respirar Lo No Tan Bueno: Compatibilidad parcial con mando: o sea, sí… pero no te emociones 0 jugadores actuales: el misterio más grande es dónde está la gente Rejugabilidad limitada por el género: una vez sabes “quién fue”, ya no es lo mismo Aventura de apuntar y clic: si odias leer pistas y hacer clic metódico, aquí vienes a sufrir Rompecabezas: cuando te atoras, no es “difícil”, es “orgullosamente terco” [h2]Tabla de Evaluación[/h2] [table] [tr][th]Aspecto[/th][th]Puntuación (0-10)[/th][th]Comentario[/th][/tr] [tr][td]Jugabilidad[/td][td]7[/td][td]Apuntar y clic sólido; clásico, sin reinventar la lupa.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Dificultad / IA[/td][td]6[/td][td]Lo “difícil” suele ser el rompecabezas, no una IA brillante.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Contenido[/td][td]7[/td][td]Suficiente para una aventura narrativa con investigación.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Gráficos / Video[/td][td]7[/td][td]Cumplidores y al servicio del tono noir/atmósfera.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Historia[/td][td]8[/td][td]Misterio bien llevado; aquí está el verdadero motor.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Ambientación[/td][td]8[/td][td]Noir y crímenes: se siente el “caso” de principio a fin.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Efectos (VFX)[/td][td]6[/td][td]Correctos; no es un show de fuegos artificiales, es un crimen.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Música[/td][td]8[/td][td]Gran banda sonora: suma tensión y estilo.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Voces[/td][td]7[/td][td]A la altura de una aventura con enfoque narrativo.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Diversidad[/td][td]5[/td][td]No es el foco del juego y no destaca por ello.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Rendimiento[/td][td]8[/td][td]Aventura single-player: debería ir estable y aquí cumple.[/td][/tr] [tr][td]Rejugabilidad[/td][td]6[/td][td]El misterio se disfruta más la primera vez, seamos honestos.[/td][/tr] [tr][td][b]Total Puntuaciones (Muy Bueno)[/b][/td][td][b]6.9[/b][/td][td]Un thriller de apuntar y clic con estilo: no perfecto, pero sí recomendable.[/td][/tr] [/table] [h2]Conclusión (Muy Bueno)[/h2] The Raven - Legacy of a Master Thief es de esas aventuras que te venden el paquete completo: misterio, crimen, rompecabezas y vibra noir. Y lo entrega. No viene a revolucionar el género; viene a recordarte por qué el género funciona cuando la historia manda y la ambientación te atrapa. Ahora, lo controversial: que tenga 0 jugadores actuales le queda perfecto… porque esto no es un “juego para estar en tendencia”, es un caso para jugar a solas y en silencio, como si estuvieras escondiendo evidencia. Aun así, con 602 recomendaciones totales, está clarísimo que el juego ya pasó por el jurado popular y salió bastante bien parado. [h3]Recomendación de Compra (Recomendado)[/h3] Puntuación Total: 6.9/10 Número de jugadores activos al momento de hacer esta review: 0 Descuento máximo registrado: N/A Veredicto: [i]Recomendado[/i] Si te gustan las aventuras de apuntar y clic con detectives, misterios y rompecabezas que te hacen sentir listo (hasta que no), este es un caso que vale la pena resolver. Si buscas acción, multijugador o “adrenalina”: mejor investiga otro crimen en otro lado.
In questo titolo impersonate un gendarme della polizia svizzera Anton Jacob, che è salito sul treno l'orient express che porta un carico di valore, l'occhio della sfinge ovvero l'altro rubino sopravvissuto dal furto nel museo di londra, anche il secondo rubino è nel mirino del ladro che si fa chiamare il corvo. Il gioco vi porterà non solo a scoprire chi è il corvo ma anche ad assicurare alla giustizia o quasi, un paio di assassini. Tutto questo in una avventura grafica divisa in 3 capitoli a se stanti. Si, rispetto alle altre avventure grafiche, questa ha i capitoli separati, potete iniziare anche dal terzo, non sono disattivati come di norma, se volete seguire la storia fin dall'inizio. Il gioco poteva essere carino se non fosse che ha molti bug, ed è lievemente incompatibile con i sistemi moderni. Personalmente ho dovuto giocare 3 volte l'intero primo capitolo solo per via di un achievement che non si sbloccava. ^^; Solo per farlo partire con il mio sistema, ho dovuto mettere la lingua inglese nelle proprietà di steam, poi a volte aveva problemi di driver video in cui il gioco non si chiudeva correttamente ritornando a windows. Perciò se vi interessa non comprate l'originale, ma bensì la sua versione remaster. Anche perche rispetto a questa versione che ha solo i sottotitoli in inglese e tedesco, la remaster li ha anche in italiano. Poi specialmente nel primo capitolo, il puntatore del mouse per comandare il personaggio non sempre riesce a cambiare schermata tra una e l'altra, anche se il personaggio è fuori schermata. Ci sono anche bug in cui il modello 3d si incanta, e altri piccoli problemini. Per questo do voto negativo non lo consiglio neanche scontato. Se lo volete giocare comprate la remaster non questo originale. Dimenticavo che gli extra che si sbloccano nel gioco sono pochi e nulla. ^^;

Eine absolute Frechheit sowas zu verkaufen. Sowohl diese Orginal Version als auch das Remastered sind voller Bugs und Fehler. Beide Versionen stürzen in Kapitel 3 ab wenn man etwas nicht in der richtigen Reihenfolge macht. Bei beiden Versionen sind die Hitboxen total verkehrt und man muss immer etwas neben den Gegenstand zielen den man aufheben oder betätigen möchte. Die Story ist eigentlich gut nur leider auch hier wurde nicht zu Ende gedacht, bzw. es wurde Einiges weg gelassen, man wollte es wohl nur schnell fertig stellen um die Produktionskosten zu senken. Dabei hätten die nicht soviel Mist gemacht und das ganze ordentlich überdacht und zu Ende entwickelt hätte das Spiel ein Point`N Click Epos werden können und auch ein zweiter Teil wer möglich. Naja THQ Nordic ist Pleite somit brauch auch niemand mehr mit rechnen das dieses Spiel nochmal gepatched wird. Einfach nur traurig! Kauft Euch bloß keine der beiden Versionen zum Vollpreis, wenn überhaupt nur im Sale bei 90% Rabat, aber besser lasst es ganz, damit ersparrt ihr Euch jede menge ärger.
Gut durchdachte Geschichte, logisch aufgebaut. Grafik etwas ungenau, sonst aber OK. Macht Spaß beim lösen.
