The Raven Remastered

I first played the original game when Chapter 1 came out for free on another gaming platform, where I instantly loved the setting, the style and the plot of the story. Years later I decided to pick the game up here on steam and play the whole thing. This game is heavily influenced by the works of Agatha Christie, which as a fan of her novels and works, greatly appeals to me. The positive points of this game are the story, which is engaging, clever and makes you want to find out more with every event in the plot. The puzzles are challenging but not impossible to complete, with no time limit or pressure to get the correct answer first time. There are hints available to use at any time if you get stuck, but this will decrease your score and determine which kind of achievements you get at the end of each chapter. The controls of the game are very easy to understand, and finding clues and items becomes easier the more practice you get by playing the story. There is a notebook you can read throughout the story, where the characters write observations of events and other individuals in the story, which I thought was a great addition to the game as it allows you to get a more in-depth…

I really really enjoyed this. So many P&C games done with caricatures are a bit inane or simply annoying. This one really had me engaged. If you like Point and Click and looking for a game with an intriguing storyline then I recommend this one

Brilliant game. Very nice story, high quality animation, map design, soundtrack and real voice acting. Really recommend this for all point & click lovers. Encountered a couple of annoying bugs but the rest 99% is pure gold.

This one was an enjoying and relaxing game - with a couple twists I did not expect!

good steady plot

It's pretty good! It has aged a little already, having a little janky vibe - but it's all very serviceable. It has the feel of the indie point and click adventure, and definitely respect for it being fully voiced - and the VA is rather ok. Mechanics wise, this is less of a detective game (there's not really any deducing or detective mechanics) and more of a classical point and click - and it's an ok one. Some of the solutions are a little weird, or very specific, but nothing too crazy. The weird part is the scoring system - not sure why and for whom. But what it also does is that you have to "pay" for highlighting interactables - which is such a weird thing to do. Even if you don't care about some silly score, it is an instant detraction of it (and the highlight is pretty bad). That, combined with the fact that there is some amount of pixel hunting, is probably the biggest gripe I have. It was unnecessary to follow this old school adventure game trope - only to a detriment. But other than that - it was actually an interesting story to follow. It might seem like it's just yet another whodunnit with a mediocre story, but it actually keeps things somewhat interesting and …
