Fantastic Journey - Great Humour

In "Tunguska" You and a Professor work together to solve a mystery surrounding the mysterious explosion that happened in 1908 in Russia & the possible relation between this and the top-secret scientific work being done today.

Some locals believe that a UFO exploded there while others believe a comet collided with the Earth.

This game has several interesting features compared to other adventure games. First you can have the computer high light for you all active objects in a given area to eliminate pixel huunting. Second the game has a auto save feature that makes saving the game a snap.

Although I thought the graphics were excellent, there was some very slight clipping noticed once or twice in the game.

Overall, I really liked playing "Tunguska" - the game has great voice acting and the humour made me laugh more than once.

Highly recommended game for those Syberia fans out there.

FUN GAME! LOVED IT!

I loved this game! It reminded me a lot of the first Longest Journey game where the main character is a young girl on a mission. The puzzles were fairly simple, which is a plus for me and other gamers, I'm sure, who don't have to be rocket scientists to figure out the puzzles. Great graphics, and storyline, although voice acting could be better. I'm looking forward to the sequel.

EXCELLENT, SUPER MIND GAME

FROM BEGINNING TO END THIS GAME IS THE BEST SINCE JOURNEY AND SYBERIA AND I MIGHT ADD THAT IS GREAT COMPANY TO BE IN IF YOU ARE A GAME. LOVED THIS GAME. ONLY WISH IT WAS 2008 FOR SECRET FILES 2. ONLY HOPE IT IS AS GREAT A GAME AS THIS ONE.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Interesting and Enjoyable

I really enjoyed this game in spite of its flaws and there were flaws. There were some problems with "pixel" hunts in just about every section of the game. In spite of that, the game was fairly well thought out and the graphics were really good. When I first started the game, I felt that Nina's voice was a tad juvenile sounding but as I began to find myself immersed in the game, her voice began to be realized as befitting her character--it seemed to suit her. The many characters in the game were varied and interesting. The puzzles were many and most were fairly logical and except for the "pixel hunts" were enjoyable to solve. Even so this is a really great game and I am looking forward to the sequel.

Light, casual fun

I enjoy adventure point-and-click games with a little thought behind them (e.g., Grim Fandango). Tunguska fit the bill perfectly. My fiance and I played it together, and the "puzzles" I thought were obscure made perfect sense to him, and vice versa. So I suppose none are truly obscure, it just depends a little on the way you think. I use quotes for "puzzles" because you rarely run into situations where you have to solve an unrelated put-the-chess-pieces-in-the-right-spot kind of puzzle in order to continue. Instead, it's a fairly logical game where the difficulties you solve are all related to the plot. The plot, by the way, has some holes (all computer-game plots do) but was overall entertaining and had some beautiful cutscenes. A lot was put into the scenery and graphics. I'm looking forward to the 2008 release of a related game, and will definitely buy it. Highly rated!

nice game, graphics, and all

the game is great fun, I dont know why pple are critesizing some things that are irrelevant to gameplay, (Nina's voice), I mean what next? the wardrobe? i've never heard someone saying he/she didnt like the characters's clothes, nor voices in an adventure game, and remember, not all game programmers, can afford to buy designer shoes for their characters. the graphics are great, music also, the puzzles are not that hard, but also not so easy, and they offer you the screen search help, which indicates with which objects you can interact in the scene, but, anyway, it is your option to use it or not, the game played great on Vista, although played on a Laptop (graphic card with shared memory), fast, not boring, in short it was a great game.

Loved it!

This game has brought back my love for adventure games. The story is good (great even, by computer game standards). It keeps you engagend and you keep playing to see what happens next, and not just to solve the next puzzle.

The puzzles are fair. A bit on the easy side perhaps, but that allows you to progress at a resonable pace, so I count this as a positive. The interface is good too. In particular, I enjoyed the fature that allows to highlight all the clickable areas, which completely eliminates any pixel hunt. Well done!

Note: I played the German version of this. It has great voice acting. I am not sure whether that is the case in the English version or not (some reviews lead me to believe that it isn't as good).

Occasionally irritating, but otherwise AWESOME game! Lots of fun!!!

The Secret Files: Tunguska is a great game. My younger brother and I played it together and had a blast. Other reviewers have complained about the voice acting, but when that is the main problem with a game, I'd say it's still pretty good. It's fun to play with another person so you can make fun of some of the ridiculous things the characters say. The graphics are very good and overall it's quite entertaining.

The only thing that frustrated me was the often illogical MacGyver-type things you had to do. The game requires you to use objects in creative ways or to combine several items to make new ones. I thought this was a very interesting aspect of the program, but also a little annoying. Sometimes you had to do absurd things that no one would ever think of on their own. We ended up either trying to combine every one of our items, using every item on everything in a room, or "cheating" and looking at the walkthrough. There was also a bug that prevented us from picking up a rat at one point in the game (which is necessary to continue), but I just downloaded a patch from the website and it was fine. Those were my only complaints.

We often play the Nancy Drew series even though it is a bit simplistic and irritating. Tunguska is much better than the ND games and the story is much more mature. I recommend this game to anyone who enjoys adventure or mystery games and suggest playing it with a friend!

Best Adventure Game I've Ever Played

I thought it was great! The graphics and plot were good. The main character's voice was a little annoying, but not too much. Most of the puzzles were relatively easy, except for a few here and there that made no sense. The ending was a little disappointing, but still worth it.

Overall, I'd say it was wonderful. I really enjoyed it and can't wait for the second one.

Well, ya going to get it here with Tunguska Game. The puzzles are not that easy for a 60 yr old but lots of fun. Graphics are nice and story is well written. I enjoyed this game and had lots of quality time fun playing it.
