    After playing so many mediocre games from the big publishers, DF3 was a welcome treat. If you like adventure games, you must get this one.

    It won't impress you with its story, but if you like an adventure that can send shivers down your spine as it flexes your brain, you owe it to yourself to check out Dark Fall: Lost Souls.

    A solid story well told and creaky gameplay mechanics result in a good game, but one that's definitely not recommended for a wide audience.

    An adventure shocking like a Stephen King Blockbuster. But it never gets too obvious, the horror elements are all psychological. Great atmosphere, and aside from the slow pace of the game, it works out quite well.

    Dark Fall: Lost Souls proves that the point-and-click genre hasn't met his demise yet. Thankfully passionate individuals like Jonathan Boakes create games like this in their spare time. Lost Souls may not be of the same high quality as the other two entries in the series, but it still is a must-have for people with a weak for a good horror story and old fashioned point-and-click games.

    This is a flawed game, but it's getting better. [Feb 2010, p.95]

    It is sad to see so many good ideas killed by their implementation.

    Dark Fall: Lost Souls is aimed squarely at the Myst crowd: if you like taking your time pondering over clues, taking meticulous notes and solving some brain-bending puzzles, then you'll render a considerable degree of enjoyment from the game. If not, then its tension and suspense will be lost on you thanks to the snail's pace it takes and the distinct lack of anything remotely exciting happening.

    Make no mistake, this is a puzzle solving type gaming. Type of game i'm not good at and regret buying for myself. Sound effects is the best feature about the game and the voice acting is okay. Story seemed interesting just couldn't get myself to finish it.… Full Review »

    The game tries to hard to be frightening, and the result is quit tedious.. Full of horror cliches and a really bad voice acting.

    The newest game from Darkling Room and Jonathan Boakes will have you looking behind you to make sure no-ones there and jumping at the tiniest little sound. This is an impeccable piece of Indie game making and one which fully warrants the £25 price. The graphics are beautiful, the story is extremely clever and the characters are very well thought out. If you played the original Dark Fall you will be returning to an already familiar location but it in no way feels like a recycled location. Everything has been re-built from the ground up. The only downside to this is the voice acting which does show the Indie side of it. However its nice to hear voices you recognize from other games you've enjoyed (Nanny Noah from The Lost Crown) but sometimes the repeated lines of dialogue do grate. This is definatley a worthwhile purchase and is one of the single best horror games to come out in a very long time.… Full Review »
