    The Last Door Season 2 was exactly what I expected it would be. It’s scary, the story is amazing and weird, the music is beautiful, and overall, it was just a wonderful series.

    A great second half for a great graphic adventure. If you love classic horror you cannot miss it… unless you’re allergic to huge pixels.

    With a script that could have easily come from the haunted pen of H.P. Lovecraft, a haunting, minimalist string soundtrack by Carlos Viola and a genuine understanding of what constitutes true, primal terror, The Game Kitchen brilliantly concludes The Last Door’s narrative with an adventure that will richly reward players looking past the ultra-retro presentation.

    Even if it looks like it came from the Commodore 64 era, the second season of The Last Door is a chilling adventure with a haunting soundtrack. It is a Lovecraftesque journey from mental asylums to opium dens, a proper horror game that refrains from using cheap scare tactics.

    The Last Door opens up another suspenseful, extremely retro-styled exploration of Victorian England and the occult with a second season even better than the first.

    Its puzzles may be a bit lackluster but you’ll be too busy unraveling its dark secrets and conspiracies, worrying whether your character will survive the episode and terrified by the sudden sounds coming from next door to notice. Whether as feature film, TV series or episodic game, it matters little: bring on Season 3.

    This game is an incredibly well written narrative experience. The soundtrack is superb as is the writing and game play. What truly holds itThis game is an incredibly well written narrative experience. The soundtrack is superb as is the writing and game play. What truly holds it back is the very poor design decision to make it super low 8 bit graphics. I really think this interfered with immersion. Pixel art is fine and had this been done in the resolution of say the Blackwell series it would have been much better.

    Regardless, if you enjoy old style horror such as HP Lovecraft or Edgar Allen Poe then you owe it to yourself to purchase and play this incredible gem.    … Expand

    I can't recall assigning a game such a low score before.

I usually ignore the really low scores because usually the reviewer didn't like one aspect of the game (e.g. no redefinable keys) and gave the game a 0.

    Because the reviews of this game are very positive I gave this game more time than I think it deserves. I still doesn't deserve a score of 0, it did run and I didn't find any bugs but that is all I can say that is positive about it.

    I tried to like it. I ignored the graphics, which are so bad they hinder gameplay. I don't mind the lack of voice acting. Not having played the first season the story didn't make much sense - more bizarre than interesting.

    What is left - the puzzles. There aren't many puzzles and when I got stuck it was because I hadn't done enough blob hunting (low resolution version of pixel hunting) or I didn't walk on the correct section of the floor.    … Expand
