The Lost Oregon City Gold

This was one of my favourite Oh, A Rock! Studios games yet! As a departure from many of their other games, this game was less of a straightforward visual novel with different pathways, and more of a first-person point and click adventure game, similar to a more simplified version of something like the Carol Reed series. I personally find the point-and-click gameplay more fun and engaging than just reading through a visual novel, so this was a treat! The game features quite a lot of different real-life locations to explore, and you will learn some history along the way while solving light puzzles and scavenging for clues. The game was about 3 hours long for me, but could be longer or shorter depending on whether you rush it or take it slowly and explore every frame of each location. The game relishes each location it depicts, and allows you to explore all sorts of interesting corners that aren't strictly relevant to progression, but are just fun to look at, which I appreciated! A couple of minor criticisms: Firstly, if you save the game and come back the next day, you'd better remember what you were doing, because sometimes you can't access a character again to ask them what to do …

I love these first person adventures using real world photos. It's like a virtual sightseeing tour to unknown and interesting places. Unfortunately these kind of games are very rare so of course I had to buy it right after I read about it. The game can be described as a mixture of StreetView, Geocaching and scavenger hunt while learning about history all packed up in a fun little story. The dialogues are really funny and I love the easter eggs for example to the old Oregon Trail game. It took me 3 hours to complete the game and another hour for a second run with the final achievements and the interesting making-of bonus material. All in all I spend 4 hours for around 5 Euro which is a pretty good deal. I'm really looking forward to other similiar games of this studio.

An interestng visual novel game. A history lesson, and plenty to remember. The only issue is its easy to get lost and this can be frustrating.

Just a charming and goofy adventure that feels like a group of friends and family made a game for each other. Plus I learned about Oregon history

Great Wholesome down to earth Game Thank You I played this Game with calmness, and enjoyed every single minute of it Please Sir More-More Thank You

No media set in Oregon City would be complete without featuring the Municipal Elevator, and this game delivers. The interactive point and click photography style of this game is really cool, and it contains the trademark humor this dev studio is known for. All hail the Municipal Elevator.
