Thoughts on Dark Fall: Lost Souls

I've been playing the game Dark Fall:Lost Souls recently, and I'm enjoying it quite a bit. Although I feel it does a great job at immersion despite the constant clicking and other mechanics that you would expect to get in the way.

Just thought I'd open up a forum if anyone else has played it cause I think it is another great horror game that's worth a play.

RE: Thoughts on Dark Fall: Lost Souls

Dark Fall series is indeed a great series.
Lost Souls have some great puzzles and better immersion than its predecessors. It managed to scare me a lot and its story was quite intriguing. Visual quality was a plus but constant 1024x768 resolution really get to my nerves.

Jonathan Boakes' every single game has something good and/or unique. I'd suggest The Lost Crown too.

I'll definitely look into The Lost Crown. Just looked it up, looks very interesting! And yes I agree 100%. The puzzles in Dark Fall are wonderful. I'm yet to play the others but I'm sure they're just as great.

RE: Thoughts on Dark Fall: Lost Souls

I'm actually playing the game. And I can just say it's FANTASTIC.
The sounds, the atmosphere, the immersion, the horror, the puzzles - everything is just brillant. It is my first point n click adventure game - normally I dislike this genre, but the controls are very familiar and does a better job than expected.

It is really scary and awesome environments!

Everyone who enjoyed Penumbra and Amnesia should play this game. Of course, it's a bit different, but really good at horror and mysterious story.

I'll later talk more about it.

I prefer free 3D character movement. But I gave it a chance and the whole game is simply fantastic.

He was just pointing out how you contradicted yourself by saying that you said that it was your first point-and-click game, but that you didn't like the genre, which implies you've played a p-a-c game before.

No. I also dislike to be in prison without to have ever been there.

Because you know that prison is a punishment for breaking the law, and adventure games are a form of entertainment that you can't really dislike until you've tried.

Jesus Christ, do you even logic?

I know that 2D adventures are not as immersive like 3D adventures. It's simply bad when you just have to click around to control. Also why making/playing a 2D adventure?

I just decided to give it a try, because I actually had nothing to play.
The whole game is fantastic, but I still prefer 3D and it would be even better when it would have free movement.

There are some things in the world you dislike without to get confronted with.

Don't talk about Jesus before understand anything about logic.
