Love Story: Letters from the Past

Good story! Wish there were more games like this. I actually like finding hidden objects in my HOGs. Too many of the new HOGs have annoying puzzles and not enough hidden objects.

I kept hoping the story would end in tragedy, but was disappointed. Realism is rare in this genre, so it has a unique charm despite the following jank: an unusable custom cursor which thankfully can be disabled, although there are certain mini games which force it despite the setting. You can slog through these, except for one late-game "puzzle" where the cursor completely disappears and enabling a Windows accessibility option for locating it is the only way to progress (good luck "casual" gamers). You will need to change your aspect ratio to 4:3 unless you like '…

I am recommending this with huge reservations. The story is cute, and the game play is very simplistic. I have fond memories of playing this game many years ago so there is some nostalgic value for me. That said, the graphics are fairly low quality by today's standards. Also, it is a bit glitchy, especially with the mouse cursor. The game where you have to shoot the ducks is a complete mess. There are not many HOGs with a romance theme so I do appreciate the Love Story series.

very poor. not what I expected; just a lot of scenes where I had to click, click until I hit on the thing that they had decided was the one, for example, was a pair of the first one. they have my money and i have ... I do not know. unfortunately it is part of a set, so i have three of them. no story that i could see, just finish one scene and go to the next ( i did not go to many) played for 104 minutes because it was so difficult to follow. shameful

This is a Hidden Object Adventure game. I had a lot of trouble seeing things. As beautiful as the artwork is, it's like the older HOG games in that the items are not sharp and often tiny. I had to use my 4" magnifying glass, LOL. It is an intriguing & touching story full of HOPs, mini games and puzzles.
