The adventure portions are top notch, and filled with great jokes. The stealth dungeon portion? Well, the game takes pity on you at a certain point and makes it easier, so there's that?

About This Game
As the brave knight Sir Typhil of Creulor continues his quest to bring a unicorn to the castle and be crowned king, he finds himself trapped in a haunted forest by a malevolent ghost.
As with all of the games in the series, Poltergeist Treasure is mainly a point & click adventure, but with elements of other types of games present as well. In this episode, a section of the game is a top-down stealth game.
As stated immediately above, this is a point & click adventure game and thus contains the standard compliment of point & click adventure game features including:
- Walking around from place to place by pointing and clicking!
- Talking to NPC's by choosing dialog options and receiving witty responses!
- Picking up everything that isn't nailed down and putting it in your inventory!
- Using your inventory items on objects or people in the world in order to solve puzzles!
- Using your inventory items on other inventory items in order to solve puzzles!
- Using your inventory items on absolutely everything you see because you're stuck on this puzzle and can't figure out what to do!
- Literally slapping yourself in the face because that puzzle solution was so obvious and yet it took you 20 minutes to figure it out!
Also, as already stated, a portion of the game is a top-down stealth game, and as such contains the following features:
- Walk around and avoid obstacles, some of which are moving!
- um... yeah... that's pretty much all the features of a top-down stealth game.
While a stand-alone game in its own right, this game continues the over-arching story from Unicorn Dungeon:

Wow, I can't believe this game was such a low price. I haven't finished but am thoroughly enjoying this Point and Click Retro -style game reminiscent of the original Kings Quest or Quest for Glory adventure games (this has with much better graphics) The graphics are very good as are the sound and music. I am particularly enjoying the voice acting! Definitely worth a purchase if you, too, love and appreciate the older style P&C adventure games.
this game has a great sense of humor, stunningly good graphics, and perfect balance of point 'n' click adventure and retro dungeon crawler/stealth strategy. looking forward to the third installment!
Amusing Pn'C totally wrecked by an arcade maze of the worst making imaginable, as if adding mazes - the lamest form of puzzle - to an adventure wasn't bad enough. So it's a maze, a downer by nature, and it's full of enemies that kill you, and death resets the entire thing and puts you back at the beginning. As poor and obsolete a design as it is, that's not the worst part. Worst are the controls, with keys not matching the screen directions but the current orientation of the avatar. A disastrous scheme briefly experimented in the early 80s, quickly declared a crime against humanity by multiple La Hague courts, and banned by an entire generation raised with taste and common sense. In short, the enemy is not the maze itself, or its fauna; it's your own keyboard. The tool is not the solution, it's the problem. Imagine planting a hammer into a wall by striking it with a nail... It makes about as much sense. For that heresy, the UI gets a rating of 0/10. With no options for sensible cont...
This game made me laugh and weep. Memorable and charming. Every title in the series has a really challenging switch to another genre. This time it is a stealth section. The feeling i got after finally beating it was really satisfying, something i often miss with most modern games.
