Lighthearted ghostly point-n-click... pretty mediocre
It really feels less and less common these days for a point-and-click adventure to blow me away. The last ones I can recall were Beyond Shadowgate, The Abandoned Planet, Burnhouse Lane, Dreaming Lucy, and Prim.

It really feels less and less common these days for a point-and-click adventure to blow me away. The last ones I can recall were Beyond Shadowgate, The Abandoned Planet, Burnhouse Lane, Dreaming Lucy, and Prim. In the meantime, there have been seemingly endless games like this that just come and go. Lightly comedic ghost stories, with a playful humor and puzzles you've seen a million times before.
This one was particularly bland to me. The story was just confusing, and as it drew closer to a resolution it only felt more convoluted and pointless to me. The puzzles were decent for the most part, but sometimes the solution just came from talking to the right person - aka hardly a puzzle at all. But the puzzles that actually took some effort were fun and never frustrating.
The art style is solid as well. But I just can't really recommend this one when it feels like one of a plethora of similar games that all function about the same. I wouldn't even say it's one of the better ones of this type (hence the 2 stars). It is probably fun for someone that LOVES this type of game, but I tend to enjoy the more serious or even horror-focused point and click titles (I hate the classics like Monkey Island or Day of the Tentacle). So YMMV, but for me - its like a 3.1/10.
