Your journey follows the path of clues left behind by your girlfriend, where along the way you will have to solve an ancient mystery and the source of evil causing the local townsfolk to turn into a rare breed of savaged night-thirsty murderers.

Classic point a click titles, if you are a fan of the genre you have to play these (you get three games for the price of one)
Last Half of Darkness - Society of the Serpent Moon is a classical P&Q horror-adventure which is created in the old-school style from 90's and early 00's. Horribly spooky atmosphere, thrilling story line and relatively easy puzzles will surely bring you some positive vibes and experience.
Another chapter of the Last Half of Darkness awaits...
As someone who enjoyed the first three Last Half of Darkness games on DOS, I was surprised to know that the series continued, so I had to pick this up. That was a mistake. For starters, the voice acting is awful. All the characters speak with such slow cadences that it's like listening to your friend rant about politics after downing Quaaludes. The main character's voice is also done by a terrible David Hayter impersonator, or someone who has a bunch of nails stuck in their throat.
Gameplay wise, there's not too much going on. It's an adventure game, so most of what you're doing is collecting items and solving puzzles, but you can easily miss picking up vital items if you're not hovering over every part of the screen. If you miss an item, there's no system in place to help you find it. There’s no hints and there's not even a button you can hit to have important items in a scene glow.
Visually, the game looks good for 1997. Too bad this was released in 2011. I mean, I wasn’t expecting much going in but… Wow. There’s virtually no graphic options and the game only runs in a 4:3 aspect ratio. A game that only runs in 4:3 in 2011? It seems pretty insane, seeing as though 16:9 had been the typical ratio for most media for several years up until that point. 2D elements, 3D elements, it doesn’t matter… It all looks horrible and the animations are just as bad. Whether it’s a cutscene or the main character interacting with the environment, it’s all bland and poorly animated.
Puzzles range from tolerable to downright frustrating. One of the puzzles is a game of Simon. With eight buttons. You have to memorize a pattern that goes all the way up to seven sequences on EIGHT buttons. If you're great at memorizing patterns and can focus, you'll do fine, but I often have trouble concentrating and remembering things so it was a frustrating nightmare.
The game was pretty bland all the way up to a specific puzzle towards the end. That's when I completely turned on it. See, all throughout the game you'll find these green coins that are apparently pretty important, but you're never told why. It turns out that this particular puzzle requires you to have 27 green coins. I got to this section with the right number of coins, but the game forces you into DESTROYING one of them before you even get to interact with the puzzle. That left me with 26 coins and being unable to continue.
I tried looking up walkthroughs, but the only ones I found were incomplete. I looked up YouTube videos about this game. I found a few, with a FIVE HOUR video being the most helpful, but I wasn't about to scrub the timeline of a five hour video to figure out the location of a single coin. I briefly thought about heading back to the game and wandering around for a bit, but traveling in this game is terribly slow and clunky. I just decided to watch the ending on YouTube. I didn't miss much.
Frustrating game design, bad voice acting, annoying puzzles, horrible visuals… Yeah. This isn’t a good game. I think everyone, but more specifically people who love adventure games, should stay very far away from this title.
