Midnight Mysteries: Ghostwriting CE
Based on CE Only.
Well.
Hmmm. 
I guess I just need to ruminate on this further.
In the early 19th century, as your character is going through his mail, he comes across a missive from his good friend, Washington Irving, pleading for help. He fears for his very life.
When setting up your profile on the "menu" page, your name doesn't quite come up in lights, but having it typed on the typewriter is pretty cool too.
The music
was very haunting. Orchestral. Beautiful. Graphics were done very well. Voice overs were good - lip syncing matched the words, great accents.
4 Difficulties: Casual, Advanced, Expert, Custom. Casual seemed a better option than "custom". IMO.
You are armed with a diary/journal to hold notes, and a transportable map. The "hint" button does not transport you.
You DO have a "helper" in the form of a Raven who just sits there, unobtrusive (you almost forget it's even there until you need it), just ... being a raven.
HOGs (hidden object games) - list and silhouette type that are slightly interactive.
Mini Games ranged from easy to a bit difficult. But, who can resist a good challenge???
CE Bling:
In addition to the customary fare, we have the following:
* Back Story - You CAN unlock it prior to playing the main game, but are warned that the plot could be disclosed.
* Tic Tac Toe - 50 (???)
* Find 56 four-leaf clovers. They are in the HOGs as well as the game.
* Raven coins - used to purchase items for your Raven helper's abode.
While an interesting story line ...... ghosts
traveling through books, authors disliking their endings (but WHICH ending? the stories or theirs? ) and all sorts of mischief that doesn't seem to tie into the story at all .... I'm just ..... not ...... sure ..... if it's for me! 
I'm missing that "WOW" factor. 
That "NO! THE DEMO CAN'T BE OVER!" factor. Even so, 'something' pulls me towards purchasing at least the SE.
Join me in the ghostly escapades of some of fiction's greatest authors!
Oh, and let's NOT forget ..... who would want to miss Ghostwriting: The Musical?
Yes, at least 1 character .............. sings! 
ENJOY!
Overall Impression: Unless the bonus story packs a big punch or is necessary to the ending of the main story, I think the SE would work just fine.
