I logged out just before doing the puzzle to get the mantel key in the parlour - and when I logged back in, the puzzle had been completed and the secret compartment was revealed, but I can't pick up the key, nor can I progress! Really disappointing! Might have to reset after all my hard work! Beautiful graphics and so far, very ambient, spooky and intriguing storyline. But fix this bug! I'll rate it up if it gets fixed.

This was great; really took me back to Myst-like games. I love exploring by myself with no instructions for puzzles. Some were v hard, but there's an online walkthrough if you get really stuck; also, you can activate a 'skip puzzle' button through the menu (didn't realise this till the end...).

Nothing works. I can click on things and pick them up, like inventory items, puzzle pieces, coins. However, when solving puzzles, game DOES NOT allow me to solve any. I've used the walkthrough to verify I'm doing it right too! Also, it is a bit random which decreases the overall experience of the game.

D70%
by D####:

The find object X part is just right and makes sense, not one of those games that make you search for 25 beach balls to continue. Graphics are a little bit too dark in some places and make finding items without using a "cheat" impossible (like the torchlight).

Fun game, it took me several days to complete, I would say it would almost be impossible without a walk through and skip, I could NOT get the porch safe open!! Even after trying for a long time, I finally found out I could skip it so I skipped it!! After that I finally got all the way through. I loved that there were so many scenes it just kept going!! I had a lot fun playing this game! I wished there were more games just like this!!

Fantastic. A bit dark but you can fix that. Options allow you to skip puzzles; there's a great on line walkthrough. Collect moths to earn hints-yes,hints are available. Fun graphics. Really better than other games in every way.

Finally, a real mystery game with amazing puzzles and good story. It was challenging but not hard to follow. I finished this game today. I enjoyed The Haunt immensely. I just bought The Haunt 2. I can't wait to play it so here I go for round two...

Y70%
by Y####:

I found story great but needed better hints on puzzles. Had to use walk through online. Found it frustrating finding puzzle pieces. Resorted to random tapping to find them. How can you find them when you can't see them!!

Stopped working after updating my Nook Tablet to JB 4.2.2 (Carbon). Just crashes the OS. No joy. Uninstall time for this and Part 2. Was fun when it ran (under CM7).

There is a puzzle involving a safe and stethoscope. No good for Deaf and hard of hearing players like myself. Anything that requires listening becomes inaccessible, period!

This game is terrible. Any high rating is fixed. Don't buy!

Y70%
by Y####:

A good example of why you shouldn't buy games that Don't have a free trial. Can't see or zoom on a phone. No direction on how to play or proceed. Don't waste you're time or money.

An actual REAL puzzle-adventure game! Time consuming and challenging, not for amateurs!

V70%
by V####:

Just okay. The game would have been better if they had followed the storyline & created mini games that were relevant to the goal and feel of the game.

This game will eventually corrupt your data base and screw you pkone or tablet up.DONT BUY! No stars for real. Give it about a month and your device is shot.

K70%
by K####:

Probably best played on a tablet rather than a phone. Some details are not extremely difficult to pick out, even with the walkthrough.

R70%
by R####:

This game takes you back to the old school point and click where you needed a brain. The answers are there, you just have to see them. Challenging, but a great game! I didn't believe it when I read the comparisons to Myst, but it really is up to that level.

Great game ,but too tough....could not get through without walkthroughs....the haunt 2 was improvement ….just the right difficulty

E70%
by E####:

You jerks. I hate you. I hate this game. It took me so long. I taxed my brain. This caused hours of fun and frustration. So fun. I hate you.

U70%

The Haunt 2 is a great sequel to 'The Haunt'. My only criticism is that the jigsaw puzzle pieces were sometimes hard to find - I think this did slow the game down somewhat

X70%
by X####:

Made it a ways into game then nothing made sense. Missing pieces, unable to get help, hints of no use. Needs some work.

Uninstalled Did not like too complicated, did not like that you have to back out only when needing to backtrack

Someone help please what do you do with the machete? And the meteor stone? I've got 4 jigsaw pieces left for the puzzle and I'm completely stuck!

In theory this could be a great game. But I'm just tapping around. The puzzles are so annoying and tedious. I've lost interest already.

More of a frustrating struggle to solve puzzles than any fun at all. Buyer beware

Amazing game but, I can't find the last 7 pieces of this puzzle. I've checked the walkthrough pictures and counted only 95 pieces and the games needs 99, getting very annoyed cause I can't move on, help!

This is the first time I had a complex, challenging adventure game to play on my asus prime. Reminds me of my old Myst playing days many years ago. You need a brain and patience to play. Enjoyed.

If you are looking for a challenging adventure in the style of Myst and some of the other Old School Point-and-click advenures. It is here. Some of the puzzles are very difficult and make you think. if you get stuck there are walkthroughs available online. I loved the game and simple story, wish there were more games available like this one. One comment...why does the flashlight show up in a separate location instead of your inventory took me awhile to notice it in the upper righthand corner.

C70%
by C####:

Great game! No fancy graphics driving you mad, easy story to follow but very challenging. Unlike some games this took a long time to finish. Some games only take a few hours but this was many over a few weeks. Loved playing it and off to look for the sequel!!

C70%
by C####:

In general I enjoyed this game. It would be better if they provide real useful hints when you did something futile. I had to cheat with the on-line walkthrough. Graphics were too blur for phone screen to find any hidden objects. You really have to tap all over the place to see what can be added to the inventory. I couldn't gather enough puzzle pieces to activate the ten potion ingredients puzzle, so I didn't know the end of the story. Not that I have the patience to put them together anyway.

This game will keep me busy a while. :) My one criticism is about the writing/grammar/spelling in the journal. Other than that, this is a cool game. And I laugh heartily at the guy who gave it one star because it's too difficult. HAHHAHAHHAAA! :D Game difficulty is actually a good thing, not a strike against. Duh.

Wtf!! Missing one puzzle piece ( the sheeps head) and cannot progress through the game. Seriously!?! You HAVE to complete the puzzle? Not impressed. Otherwise, an okay game.
