Baron Wittard

In this game you are put into the shoes of an investigative journalist who is sent out to a crazy man's Utopian complex that has been shutdown, but holds its fair share of secrets. Upon arriving you will discover that there's no easy way inside, but the old man apparently like his puzzles, and so you will have your chance to show how good you are at puzzles. There's only one thing that seems to be happening on this property and that is that you don't seem to be alone. There's something lurking around the corner that potentially threatens you, and everyone else. That something else is the start of Ragnorok, something that a certain beast, Fenrir, would love nothing more but to start. Graphically you can definitely tell that this isn't going to blow your mind away, but with the type of game this is, it doesn't have to necessarily do that. There are several different areas to explore in this game, and I have to say that there was definitely time and effort put into each piece of this gam...

I enjoyed this older game. It's a point-and-click with node-to-node movement. The setting is within an abandoned building, which is suitably creepy. The graphics were decent, even when played on a larger screen. The only thing that bothered me was the lack of transition videos when moving through doors. You heard the sound of the door opening and closing, but the door never moved. A couple of times, elevators doors opened to reveal a hallway, but the exit from the elevator took you directly into a room across the hall. But, I'm being picky ---all in all, I had a pleasant couple of evenings of play.

Look this game isn't for everyone, but for diehard old style point and click fans its not bad and reccomend you give it a shot especially if you pick it up in a sale. If you are a fan of the Darkfall , Barrow Hill, The Lost Crown etc., then this may be for you. It is frustrating in places...not being able to walk through any door, just materialising on the other side...zooming in on objects that have no relevance to the game....but it is atmospheric.......a gloomy, decaying city within a building with lots of detail. There are many puzzles within the game and you need a fair amount of patience with some of them, there was steam coming out of my ears at one point and I was close to quitting the game, but regained my composure and resorted to a walkthrough ( to my utter shame it has to be said ) remember this comment when you play the Tower of Hanoi puzzle! There is no hint system in place which I personally found exasperating as it would have saved a lot of time wandering about won...

I did enjoy this game although I am not much of a fan of point and click. I used to like point and click a few years ago but have evolved to using keyboard/mouse and much prefer that. I first played this in 2017 and then just replayed it again in 2021. Some of the puzzles are really hard and I did have to refer to a walkthrough to get through some of them. Wished for a skip button. All in all though it was a pretty good game and was fun.

Decent for fans of the point and click adventure style games. There were a few entertaining puzzles, particularly the one at the end, but overall most of the puzzles were a little too easy. Many of the logic style puzzles were very similar to ones found in other games, so if you're familiar with them you'll probably solve the puzzle in all but a minute, while many other puzzles were simply a matter of finding the right image/note. Overall pretty fun, just lacking in difficulty, was hoping for a game more like Rhem or some of the Mysts where you needed a notebook full of notes and still banged your head against the wall for hours on a puzzle.

my game has sound with a black screen

A good but hardcore point n' click with a superb atmosphere, cool story, puzzles ranging from easy to very difficult, all the while offering zero hand-holding. Judging by the janky gameplay mechanics and the lack of animations (assets will fade in and out at best), the game is a bit on the cheaply-made side, but if you let the cheapness slide it can definitely take the player for a slow ride full of brain-racking challenges.

A decent game that is unfortunately made less enjoyable by the lack of resolution options, inability to play in windowed mode, and a pair of extremely annoying mouse/cursor issues. I use a dual monitor set up, and every once and awhile the mouse would just randomly click somewhere off screen causing the game to minimize out. Furthermore, if I moved the mouse too fast (and by "fast" I mean not actually that fast at all) the in-game camera would suddenly snap in a random direction.

Solid Myst-like game that does a lot of things well, even if it borrows a lot of stuff from other games. You know the drill: point-and-click your way through pre-rendered screens, observe things, gather information, solve puzzles, etc. etc. This game is a lot of work, and I mean that as a compliment. Your character writes nothing down, so you'll want a notebook handy. I settled for taking pictures of my screen, but whatever you do, you're gonna need a system to keep track of things. There are a lot of places to explore, and many small easy-to-miss things, so you need to pay close attention. That said, I never found myself pixel-hunting and progressing through the story was never too challenging. The maaaaaajor downside is that all the puzzles in this game are borrowed from other places, and not only are they unoriginal, they're fricking HARD. And not in a "just be smarter" kind of way, it's like they intentionally made them as tedious as possible. There's a Tower of Hanoi puzzle with...

I literally wasn't able to finish the game because of a bullshit stars puzzle. And halfway through the game I started to wish Ragnarok happened just so baron Retard can finally shut his hole.
