Spirit of Revenge: Cursed Castle Collector's Edition

Good Game overall

[h1]The story is a bit cliche for the genre, but I found it enjoyable.[/h1] Perhaps my judgement is skewed, playing this straight after some other broken gameplay, but I thoroughly enjoyed this game. A good variety of hidden object search scenes, puzzles and story kept this one from getting too boring. Story involves yourself being called in as an inspector to investigate a castle where reports of fire and strange activity were taking place. Never mind the fact that the very first scene shows the castle surrounded by a rather expansive marsh, with no one around to witness said activity. You'll find with a lot of these types of games, if you start picking at the inconsistencies, you'll likely be there all day. Locations vary considerably for one castle, but then castles are usually big. It is broken loosely into different sections, such as the castle interior, the gardens and the dungeons. There are morphing objects to collect, in addition to picture fragments, which when completed unlock the bonus chapter. Morphing objects don't seem to be trackable, as I couldn't find them in the menu anywhere except for the HUD tally in the lower right. As there are no steam achievements this …

You are an investigator called in to help when most of a family (the Flatburys) disappear from their castle. The lone person left is the youngest daughter. And there are strange things going on in this place. Perhaps even a curse from the mason who built it… HO scenes are challenging, minigames fun, and the plot intriguing. Worth a try.

One of my favorite HOGs to date! Had an awesome story that tied in a lot of British folklore. Puzzles were a mix of challenging and easy. Great setting details. Ending made me cry

As someone who plays a LOT of HOPA games, I must say, this is one of the best I've played in a while! It's a great game and a try hidden gem on the site. Plenty of HO scenes, great puzzles, beautiful art, a long game, and a pretty interesting story. Seriously loved this game. I can't recommend it enough. So, glad I randomly picked it to play. Just a great game!
