Haunted Train: Frozen in Time
Based on both the SE and CE demos.
A dark-cloaked figure (Katherine) turns on her partner in crime (Slyboots) at the last moment before .......... well ............. THAT'S where the story begins.
Graphics: Done well but felt a little "off".
Music: WOW! You had me at the music before the game play even began. Haunting, suspenseful. It made me WANT to play the game.
Sound fx: Done quite well as you could hear the slighest noise in the background.
Voice Overs: True to form ..... the perfect tone and pitch for every character and in every situation. Even though the actual characters were a bit "stiff", their voice overs were excellent.
4 Difficulty settings: Casual, Advanced, Hard and Custom (hint recharge and skip could go down as far as zero (0). WOW! No wait for skip OR recharge?!?! I don't think I've seen THAT before.
You are armed with a transportable map (the hint button also teleports) and a Chronometer that can freeze/unfreeze time (a mini game in itself every time it's used) . There are also 10 birds to find.
HOGs (hidden object games) - 20 - slightly interactive lists. Nothing really special. No alternative game.
Mini Games - 22 - quite fun, not terribly difficult. Some new techniques to old favorites.
CE Bling:
I didn't see any "bonus game" or "strategy guide" in the "Extras" section but I'm sure when the main game is finished it will show up. I think. I hope. :glasses 2:
Besides music and wallpapers, there are:
* 47 collectibles pieces (butterflies?)
* 17 Morphings Objects
I felt this was not a standalone game. While there was a brief synopsis of the previous game, I still felt I was at a disadvantage for not playing it. (I own it - It's just in the dungeon of unplayed games.) I think every level of expertise will enjoy the game. Is it CE-worthy? IMO, yes. But, a bonus game, collectibles AND morphing objects gets me every time .
Olivia has gone in search of her love , Daniel. To rescue him from the clutches of Katherine and Slyboots. Are you up to the task of helping? If so,
ENJOY!
Overall Impression: I think either the SE or CE would make an excellent addition to anyone's game collection.
