Haaaarrrrrd !!!! I played on the easy level.
The hint only says, "There's nothing to do here", it does not point you in the right direction if you're stumped.
I finished the game by doggedly returning to each scene over & over & clicking on everything and trying all the inventory objects on everything. There is no map to speed jump. I almost gave up a few times.
Logic gave in to retracing my steps until a new hot spot, HOS or item appeared. Phew! Not a fun way to play. Interesting plot twist at the end.
My wish: Please put in a real hint system because as much as one must revisit locations, it would be extremely difficult to find your place in someone else's walkthrough.
The puzzles are skippable.
This game is worth collecting.
Interesting story line and kept me busy for a while ... on and off ... I liked it.
Curious scenes and again ... the story line!! I really enjoyed this game.
Its worth the money.
The only thing that was good about this game was the ending.
after almost 3 hours of boredom i finally get to the ending and lookie here... it was a cliff hanger preparing for the second part....
pros.
ok art work
ok game play time (almost 3 hours for the main story)
cons.
very very boring.... i almost fell to sleep
no bonus chapter
very bland and boring voice acting... the voice is sooo low.. and with russian accent... it sounded like the women were recording while hiding in a room and trying not to wake someone up.... very annoying -.-"
trail and error puzzles. setting up a combination and depending on luck
repetitive HO scenes
boring repetitive music keep looping over and over again
lets see what part two gonna bring. i will force my self to finish i guess. not expecting anything better....
overall i do not recommend this one. it is very boring.
i give it 3/10 for the game +1 for the cards =4/10
run of the mill gameplay, good graphics
... let me add, that objects found in the game, can be matched with another object much earlier or later in the game. There is a lot of back and forth from origins to rooms opened further into the game because of timely matching keys to locks and puzzles. I had to resort to walkthru at times, little help in game right now.
I got this game and its sequel in a hidden objects bundle, so I never bothered to read the reviews. If I didn't get Mountain Trap in a bundle, I wouldn't have gotten it at all. Heed the negative reviews, they stand true.
Mountain Trap: the Manor of Memories is a bore. Like others have already said, this HOG is a chore to play.
I don't despise it, I've played worse, but the overall issue is that this HOG lacks the very tools that makes these games fun & worth playing.
-No Map, which means no fast travel. There are too many locations to be without a map.
-The hint button is virtually useless.
-Journal and Task list are practically useless as well.
-Puzzles are a hit or miss.
-The voice acting... what is up with that?? Everyone sounds like they're either whispering or recording inside of a cave with a dozen echoes. If there were no subtitles I'd be lost to the story.
The actual hidden object scenes were sometimes a fun challenge but that doesn't come nearly close enough to make up for this HOG. There is potential for a good game here. Unfortunately it was not executed very well.
game is great for those who love hidden object games only problem i have is this game doesnt come with a map to show u where you are and what areas you still have a task in. because of this if you get lost or confused or plain stuck your constantly using the hint button and i dont like having to use that. overall id say six out of ten
pros
- good looking and colorful graphics
- mostly enjoyable puzzles
- intriguing ghost story
- good background musics
- hidden object elements are fun.
- hint system very helpful in hog scenes
- there is auto save
cons
- too much backtracking
- abrupt cliffhanger ending is rushed and clearly designed to set up a sequel.
- flat voice acting
- there is no travelling map
- there are some frustrating slider and trial/error puzzles. fortunately you can skip if you don't want to solve them.
- game's hint system doesn't give you any direction and when you stuck you don't know what to do next.
- game could have been longer.
- there are no Steam achievements
this is not the worst hidden object and puzzle game but not the best either. only buy on sale and play easy mode for more enjoyment.
Hints : no artifex mundi on this game ... bad omen.
Negative points:
- NO steam achievements , no urge to keep playing this bad game.
- NO MAP , so no exclamation mark to point you in the right direction.
- Weird puzzles that seem solved but are not, so leave you using skip option.
- Awfull voice acting.
... I stopped after 72 minutes ... just bad overall.
Many good puzzles. You may want to enter a female name (but not Amy or Elizabeth) for your profile at the beginning, because the protagonist's voice is female. Doubly so if your name is William, because William is one of the tangential characters. That moment when William replies in a female voice to a character who spoke of something that William did 200 years ago...
I rather nice casual point-and-click adventure, with lovely music and graphics, and a pleasant, slow pace. There are hidden-object scenes and puzzle mini-games, but the bulk of the gameplay is in the point-and-click adventure.
Unfortunately, though there is a lot to do in this game, it all takes place in a rather limited number of scenes. Another deficiency is the stilted English text and poor voice acting.
The story is not very interesting, although it does have surprises. It's also unfinished, though note that the sequel, Mountain Trap 2, seems to have been made by a different team and is quite a different game. It also only indirectly provides closure for the story here.
You sure do get a lot to play through when you buy this game! The puzzles just went on and on and although that makes for a longer game, there were times where the puzzles really didn't make sense or were in places that were very unintuitive. Voice acting was...not great. However it kept me puzzling for 7 hrs so I can't complain, considering I bought this for less than £1.
I made the mistake of reading some of the reviews before playing this game so I went in with low expectations.
How wrong I was.
This is a perfectly decent hard HOG for those that like a bit of extra challenge.
The lack of a map was not a problem as the world is not exactly massive. It only takes seven or eight clicks to move from one end to the other at its largest and once you have done it a few times (and you will) its no effort.
The lack of a map is also a bonus as you are forced to think about what to do next. Only on a couple of occasions did I have to scan the entire screen in almost every location until the mouse pointer icon changed to find something to do. Hint buttons should never be used except as a last resort and only after at least half an hour of looking but thats just me. ;-)
On some occasions the game will tell you exactly what to do with an object and where to use it, and on others you will be carrying an object for a long time before you get to use it.
Puzzles are decent enough. If you have played a few HOGS you will recognise most of them here. There is nothing too frustrating.
HOG scenes have two types: named items and silhouette. There was one instance where I noticed a spelling error for a cameo but the next time visiting the scene the spelling was correct. There was also one instance of an item that had a name unrelated to the item. It is obvious once you see the name that it must be a garbage translation or typo.
Some items might be hard to see but isn't that the point of a HOG scene?
Cutscenes are OK and move the story along nicely.
TL;DR
A decent game that will appeal more to a seasoned HOG adventurer rather than a beginner.
Would I buy this at full price? Probably not. Would I buy it at 50% off? Yes I would.
This game was just awful. It was tedious from start to finish, the voice acting was horrendous, and the hint button only seemed to work about a 1/4 of a time. Half the time I was trying to figure out where to go next, and since this game doesn't have a map, I ended up having to make unecessary clicks to get where I needed to. I would not recommened this game at all.
What can I say, possibly the worst HOG I've ever played. I realy wouldn't pay even the meagre £0.10 I paid for it as part of a bundle.
PROs
Trading cards
A good walk through (you'll need it) http://www.bigfishgames.com/blog/walkthrough/mountain-trap-the-manor-of-memories-walkthrough/
CONs
No Map
No fast travel
No strategy guide
Nonsensical actions & story
Very slow loading scenes, and transisions from one area to the next
Voice acting is very poor
Strange travel directions (at one point, if you keep clicking down, you just jump between two sceens)
No achievements
You walk miles trying to work out what to do with items
Hint button is useless except in the HOGs
And the worst thing, this is only part 1, you'll have to play the next one if you want to find out how the story goes
Rating 15/100
Replay value -5/10 (seriously, why would you torture yourself again)
Play time Approx. 5 hours with the walkthrough, all of eternity without it
Even if you are scraping the bottom of the barrel after point and click games this one will only let you train your click technique, a LOT of going back and forth, NO MAP!!, and pointless clicking in minigames to complete them after you have solved the tricky part. There are better options out there that gets u better value for money I am sad to say.
I really, really should have paid attention to the negative reviews. It's my own fault.
Honestly, don't do the thing I did. That thing is saying "sure, there are negative reviews, but I'm pretty laid back when it comes to this kind of game and don't expect too much, so I'll probably be okay with it."
Yeah, seriously, don't do that.
The only thing this game has going for it is that the actual hidden object scenes are relatively challenging. Everything else is a chore.
-There is a lot of area to cover without a map
-Minigames range from too simplistic to FAR too obtuse (with little to no guidance).
-Hint function is practically pointless as it will only help you if you're in the same room as whatever you need to do. When your objectives are so obscure and you're totally stuck, having to go to every room in turn and hit "HINT" to see if there's something to do there is complete tedium.
-Voice acting. I never expect Oscar-winning performances in a HO game, but this was ridiculously poor. I have rarely heard worse and I've played an awful lot of these.
-Aside from the voicing itself, the writing/dialogue seemed poor to me. Nothing held my interest.
After three hours of boredom, I can't do it anymore. I'm not going to finish this. Normally I slog right on through to the end even if I don't like the game much, but this will be one of the very few exceptions.
Save your money, there are countless other games of this genre to choose from instead,
This game was just awful. I had to force myself to finish it.
I would find items and have no idea where in the game I was supposed to use them, so I had to use hint constantly. But the hint button only tells you if there is something to do in the room you're in and doesn't point you to where you need to be. I ended up having to walk around the whole map pressing hint over and over until I found the right room.
The hidden object scenes are okay. I found a few frustrating because of the things they named the items. And some of them had multiple items with the same name. For example, you were asked to find a bow, but the scene had both a bow made of ribbon and a bow used for shooting arrows. Given how touchy the clicking was, I wasn't sure whether I had the wrong kind of bow or whether my clicks just weren't on the exact right spot.
The voice acting is so terrible it was hard to get through the cutscenes. Very wooden and emphasized in the wrong places, likely due to the fact that the original language of the actors wasn't English.
I agree with other reviewers, this is a tedious game. The hint function is almost useless and there is no map to show available actions or to move quickly from one place to another, which would improve the game a lot as it requires way too much going back and forth. The story is okay, although it has been done a dozen times. Not sure if I'll bother to play this to the end. Too bad I bought the bundle and also have the second game, although one can always hope it'll be a bit better.
Not recommended. Story plotting and scene to scene movement is tedious. Hidden objects are often obscured by color choices, vague art work, or just plain lazy visual plotting of objects. Voice overs are poorly recorded and sound like the actors are inside a tin can. The Hint feature is poor since it tells you only that there's nothing to do in the scene you're currently in. Lazy programming. Not worth the time to play or the cost of the game.
Of all the hidden object games I have played this one probably takes the cake for being a chore to get through. The hidden object scenes are challenging, which is a plus, however the minigames are often incredibly hard due to poor colour choices (forget this if you are colour blind) and descriptions of objects that may not be correct. The music has 2 tracks for the entire game and is very repetitive. The voice acting of the characters is the worst ever - very wooden and the final climactic scene was delivered with such a deadpan monotone quality that I wonder if they are actually trying to get you to play the sequel. The design of the game forces you to run around a huge area and find one object that then unlocks another hidden object scene for one other object and so you spend most of the game just trying to locate obtuse links between objects so you can actually progress. Most often you'll need to hit the 'hint' button to try and figure out where to go. I've never hit that button so often ever in a HOG. I hate pressing hint or skip. The storyline was the only thing keeping me going which is the usual 'friend is kidnapped, find them against a mystical force' but it was just ok. So final verdict is that this was a frustrating experience that I did need to finish but only get this at a cheap price
