Shadowgate

Its a fantastic puzzle quest point and click game. Puzzles are challenging, but logical if you think things through and use intuition. Save often because you can die in many amusing ways. The style and atmosphere are great for dark fantasy.

The game does what it sets out to do well: Create an immersive puzzle solving atmosphere set in a fantasy world that pays homage to the original game. The various difficulty options along with the addition of Yorick to provide optional hints help the player tailor the difficulty to the kind of experience that they are looking for. Visually, the game looks great, with a consistent aesthetic.

I really liked the game with the better graphics and control. I had it on NES in my childhood. :)

Only a yes if the original(s) left an impression on you, especially if getting the edition that includes the classic version. I feel like I had to reuse my knowledge in other ways since the classic. It gave a reinvigorating breath of generation to the game. The art is a little subpar for my taste, it feels like an unfinished illustrator that was animated later with some puppet tools and lighting effects. I don't hate that, but it still feels unfinished.
As per the game; the score is great! I feel like the skull companion only gives obvious hints, which are fine if you really need a start, but when it gets really hard it doesn't serve any purpose other than to annoy you.
It didn't have the same "feel" as one might say per the classic, but it does its best to copy the look and mechanics. (The dragon terrified me. Lots of potential to increase the palpable tension in this version that didn't)
I highly recommend if it's on sale.

I can't believe I never reviewed this! It's so good! The art is stunning and the soundtrack is epic! Get it!

Good remake of a fabulous classic. Give it a go with both styles.
