Dance of Death

Absolutely fantastic experience. Honestly, I look at this hurricane of negative reviews and have no idea why people literally devasted the game. Sure, it is lil dated and not without minor issues here and there. Something like cut endings of few voice lines or tricky navigation. But such low rating? No way. I will not accept this. The game enchants you from the very beginning with it's unique visuals, fascinating music and thrilling atmosphere. Atmosphere here is simply mindblowing. I could literally believe that I was invited to the feast with the Satan. Story here is not that complicated, but with proper presentation it is still rather intriguing. Very good variety of puzzles and mini games. Some of them I've seen the first time. And, overall, puzzles are not that easy. There are few simple ones, but at the same time few of them were rather tricky and it took me some time to find right solution. But in the end - that was good entertainment. Side note. Still got no idea why such low rating. Yeah, I didn't play hundreds of HOGs, but more than few dozens - that's for sure. And most of them from Artifex Mundi. So I've got something to compare. And I must admit that this old game still managed to impress.

It's a passable diversion, but as far as HOGs go, this is one of the worst "not bad" ones I've played. It's technically competent, with no crashes or bugs to speak of. The music is mostly a very simple arrangement of danse macabre with some other incidentals. A couple of the puzzles are incredibly obtuse (make portraits of famous people, some of whom you've heard of but none well known enough anymore to be recognizable, also some poorly translated or archaic words) and a pair of puzzles that are exercises in tedium that make the "skip puzzle" button almost mandatory. It's not a total waste of time, but I'd encourage people to seek out other HOGs first.

Игрушка очень понравилась. Хорошая история, необычные пазлы, непохожие на большинство такого рода игр. На прохождение потратил около 4х часов, не пользуясь подсказками совсем. Игра немного баговала, но не критично и не влияя на прохождение. Не могу рекомендовать к приобретению за полную стоимость, но всем поклонникам жанра по скидке must have.

This game was only ok. Bit short on story. The villain is just called "the villain", for example. Sometimes you had to go back to a point you thought there was nothing at only for something to appear or a HOG to open up. No achievements. No bonus chapter. Could have been better, but not the worst I have played.

not good and very short

Полный отстой. Графика, сюжет, сцены полный бред

Overall this is a bad game with some good elements. Some of the puzzles and HOP scenes are nice. I didn't have any problems with clicking something 1-2 times and it NOT registering like I've read on other reviews It's a very short game (2 hours max), only consider it when it's less than $1, and even then use some discretion. I'll put it this way, I was surprised at how short it was, but even so, I was so glad it was over
