Haunted Hotel: The X (Full‪)‬ 9+

I like this game, it's better than most of the BF games imo. I'm defiantly a horror buff, so this kind of game is right up my alley. However, I don't understand how this game can cost a lot more than True Fear: forsaken souls, and only have half the amount of graphic visual creepiness. I'm still waiting for the NEXT installment of True Fear, and hoping it comes threw seeing the reviews were so high, and ending leaving us fans hanging. But I do like elephant games too, props to developers on this game.

The Good: Like most people, I agree that this game has a nice storyline and solid well done graphics. It also has the bonus scare factor. No glitches, runs smoothly with easy menu options. I enjoyed looking for the bonus paintings and such. The puzzles given were also well done offering variety and a decent challenge
The Bad: My problem is more with the everyday object finding (all the little things you need to get to open a door, a journal or a cupboard). It was a constant back and forth motion that got so tedious. For example, you would need a flower shaped object for a drawer. In the next room, you find it and then return to the drawer to open it. That drawer had another object for a drawer somewhere else. You go there and that one had a piece for the original room. Basically you went in circles. I would find a leaf for example, forget where it went and have to use the Hint button to remember. Then again I would use it only to find an object needed for the room I was just in.
Also the Finding Object areas were not very challenging. In fact they were too easy (they were in plain sight and never hidden very well).

In the end, I didn't hate the game but it was definitely not a favorite.

Greetings, Gamers: 👄

A big sweeping bow and curtsy to the fine devs @ Elephant. What an excellent job they've done with this game: haunting atmospherics, good storyline, great graphics and music and scariness to boot!

I actually got the heebie-jeebies hearing the moaning cries for help and knocking coming from nowhere...and everywhere!

Puzzles were interesting and varied as were the HOS. Collectibles were fun to keep an eye out for (when I wasn't looking over my shoulder!)

Glitch-free, this game had incredible fluidity unlike anything else I've experienced here lately. Transport map was smooth and efficient.

A wonderful wink of the eye and nice touch: the orphan photos are actually baby pics of the game devs as tykes. It was fun reading their English/Anglo names then flipping them over to read their names in their native language and job title. Quite clever!

The secret room is a nice bonus. Going back in now to beat my original time.

Want some spooky fun, thrills and chills? Give this game a go and enjoy an early Halloween treat. I see there's another one in the works, can't wait!

Way to go, mighty Pachyderm!👍🏼👏🏽😎

Until next time, fellow gamers

May the haunted stars light your way
