Dark City: Vienna Collector's Edition

I really enjoyed this title. The art and atmosphere were excellent. the story kept my interest throughout. Among many unique features, the well-designed interface included a glowing sillouhette indicating all areas that led to another location. At 5.6 hours, I highly recommend this title.

This game was really a mixed bag. The main game was decent enough for a HOG. It has an odd, somewhat confusing story in which you play a detective trying to catch the phantom terrorizing the theater. Nothing is overly difficult; the HO scenes and mini-games are fun and pretty easy, an enjoyable way to pass the time. As with most HOGs, it has a silly story, but it was decent and I enjoyed the gameplay. Then I finished the main game and started the bonus game and suddenly all conventions went straight out the window. Mini-games suddenly have no logic no clues, and incomplete or incomprehensible instructions, forcing you to guess what you're supposed to do and then brute-force and/or guess your way to the solution (or use the built-in guide to look up the solution). I had no problem with the main game, but I couldn't solve even the first mini-game in the bonus game. For the life of me, I cannot figure out how the developer could make a decent main game but then make the worst bonus game I've ever seen.

Clever game. Easy, but enjoyable to solve puzzles and game, Took about 6 hours with bonus game. I'd recommend to hidden puzzle game lovers,

excellent

The Dark Cities is a series of really nice casual games. In each one you are a detective, who has to solve a case (robbery, murder etc). The graphics are beautiful, the stories are good, however the music is weak. The puzzles are easy and straightforward; I recommend this especially for those who are new to puzzle / HOG games, or just want a laid-back experience.

I really liked this game, The story is interesting and the graphics are colorful. Good and not too complex puzzles. Very enjoyable.
