Although Ravenhearst is like many other scavenger hunt games (think "eye spy," but with the interactivity of a computer), in that you must search crowded rooms for hidden objects to complete the list of mystery items, it also has an intriguing back story and some interesting and more challenging puzzles to unlock doors. Jigsaw type puzzles at critical points allow you to read each new page of the diary that will reveal the Mystery of Ravenhearst. It also has some very creepy music and realistic sound effects, so play it at night for the most fun! But don't click too much on one spot.

This is a great game for Adults, children over 10 or to play as a family. The ESRB Content Descriptors: Alcohol and Tobacco Reference, Mild Blood, Mild Violence; but I'll add really creepy, especially for young kids. Of the half dozen games I've played in this genre, this is definitely my favorite.

One of the best seek and find game there is.

I honestly have nothing bad to say about the full series of MCF games (Prime Suspects, Huntsville, etc.) but Ravenhearst is by far the best one. Beautiful graphics, fun in between games and a spooky storyline really sets this apart from the other seek and find games on the market.

If you aren't familiar with seek and find games, in a nutshell there is a picture (often a scene of a room) and you are given a list of specific items to find within that picture. Although that might sound easy, the illustrators can be very tricky in their placement of the item, so that it almost blends into the picture. It is very addictive and very fun, if you find the right game, and trust me, this is the right game.

So even if it's not Halloween and you are just in the mood for something a little spooky, try it out. You'll be amazed when you look up at the clock and realize how long you have been playing for, and how you still don't want to stop.

Great ghostly fun

My nine year old daughter and I had a great time playing this game, particularly the Rube Goldberg style door lock puzzles, a feature I haven't found in any other hidden picture game. The storyline does actually become a bit intense for children, not nightmare intense, but not something you would want them seeing shortly before bedtime. As a lifelong fan of spooky old house mystery stories I have to say this game really lived up to its promise.

Bought it for my girlfriend

It's apparently the most addicting game you can give a female. I say that because neither I, nor any guy I know, really gets into the game. But every woman I've seen or heard about playing it is obsessed with it. I lost an entire day with my girlfriend because of the game, so buy it at your own risk.

Amazing game!

This game is amazing! My younger brother brother (16) gave it to me for Christmas since we both enjoy playing creepy mystery games together. From the graphics on the box, we both thought it would be fun to try, but weren't sure what to expect from the game. Turns out it was awesome! Each room had freaky graphics in it - things you wouldn't expect from a "kid's" game! Not only were there creepy graphics & music, but we started noticing how the rooms were interconnected (objects in the window that you also saw from the view in the yard), and we also noticed as the game progressed that the rooms had graphics relating to the storyline. By far we enjoyed the challenge of the puzzles & the intrigue of the story and graphics! We solved the mystery in 4 1/2 hours because it was so fun we couldn't stop playing! Looking to buy some more games like this!

Great game!

This was the first "mystery" game that I purchased, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I was disappointed that I finished it so quickly, but I highly recommend it.

Spooky Fun!

My daughter-aged 8-and I played this game together. It is one of the best puzzle games that we have ever played. There is so much to this game-and the storyline is very good. I would recommend it everyone! The "extras" were alot of fun to complete, in addition to finding all of the clues!

Most EXCELLENT!!!

"Ravenhearst" is a lot of fun. The puzzles are challenging but not so hard as to be annoying (at least not so far! LOL). The puzzle locks were particularly unexpected and enjoyable; I find the creativity involved to be amazing.

Decided to buy the game instead of having the trouble of the download games. It is challenging.

This game is the best!

I love, love, LOVE this game. I've played a lot of the hidden object games and this one is my favorite. There's a background storyline that I found very interesting. Sometimes, I'd play another round just to see what was going to happen in the story.
