  • Summary: After Oceanic Air flight 815 tore apart in mid-air and crashed on a seemingly deserted Pacific island, its survivors were forced to find inner strength they never knew they had in order to survive. The band of friends, family, enemies and strangers has become reluctant heroes who must work together against the cruel weather and harsh terrain if they want to stay alive. Danger and mystery loom behind every corner on the island, and those they thought could be trusted may turn against them. Even heroes have secrets. [Ubisoft]… Expand

    A little Lost goes a long way with diehard fans. So, while I wished there were some deeper gameplay moments or a longer adventure (the game clocks in at about seven hours), I couldn't imagine, as a Lost fan, not playing this game and loving what it has to offer.

    Excellent for fans of the series. Everybody else: Do not take a look at this gameplay-lacking game.

    For a fan of the series it may be great to explore the locations and talk to well known characters, but even the greatest atmosphere is going down the drain if the lack of enthusiasm of the developers is so obvious. Sloppily created missions, repetetive riddles and unnecessary howlers in design make it difficult to enjoy the game.

    Folks who have been watching the show from the first episode won’t find any new answers about the island, and those used to a more robust adventure game experience will be put off by the boring, simplistic game play.

    Finally! After all this time we finally have a good companion game to the show. This is a lot better than I expected, given that the show has such a strong fan base. They could have made any old cruddy game and it would have probably done well just with the diehard show fans alone. But they took the care to make this a sharp, fun and well paced game that stands on it… Expand

    Seriously, how great is this? Here we get to play a completely new character as if he were connected directly to the tv series instead of some far off story that has nothing to do with the series. And all at a great price (if you bought the PC version, which is only $30 compared to $60 for the other versions). Controls are smooth and fluid and the game has all the atmosphere and mystery of the tv show.… Expand

    This game is really not very good at all, but the score I'm giving it is due almost entirely to one thing: an approach to the "amnesiac player character" that has not been done before. As with the show itself, the compelling flashbacks reveal more and more of the character until you discover that you may not be all that you wish you were. This parallel to the show's overall structure, in (excruciatingly short) miniature is an innovative way to get the emotional appeal of the show across in a (pathetically) brief time frame.

    In short, this would make a really great game.

    PS Hurley's comment when you snap out of a flashback is worth the price of admission for the die-hard fan.    … Expand

    This game should get lost and stay lost... forever! Annoying gameplay glitches make the whole thing almost unplayable. With few minor tweaks this could have been... average.… Expand
