Lovely game, but the crash was quite annoying. My mom would give it a 9/10.

Oct. 2024

It's a fantasy, sci-fi Sherlock and the Hound of the Baskervilles about time travel. I LIKE IT!

Sept. 2024

A very good older HOG with an interesting story. There is fast travel on the map, except for when you finish locations they will disappear from it. You can still revisit the normal way if you choose to. The beat the game achievement is mislabelled. So you do have to play two full runs in order to get all of the achievements. Make sure to play on the same profile to get them all. The HO pictures are decently hard in this game. The puzzles are variable with one extremely hard puzzle. The medallion powers you get along the way are a fun gimmick.

Sept. 2024

As an avid reader of Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes series, seeing Hound of the Baskervilles as a mystery and thriller game combined into a hidden object hunt completed my fill of play for tonight. I was looking for something that would attune my autistic OCD desires to quickly look for items as if the world is a vast “Where’s Waldo” maze. This classic reminds me why I loved the Mystery Case Files series: heavy lore, grand narrative, and puzzles that can be easy or complex (depending on your familiarity with the genre). It was a good 3+ hours of sustaining my needs to be enormously hyperfocused on intricate details—and I will certainly be getting my hands on the hard mode anytime soon!

July 2024

A great HIO. Always fun to play through it. I always love this old HIOs with the feeling of nostalgia. The puzzles vary from pretty easy to very hard. The chracters and the story are really cool and the mechanics are very fun. A typical oldie but goldie and totally worth playing over and over again. I can really highly recommend this game.
