5.0 out of 5 stars The Lost crown is a puzzlers delight, 3 Aug 2008
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Following the adventures of a reluctant ghost-hunter, The Lost crown is a puzzlers delight! Set, for once, in good old England, the game features `real' places like Polperro, in Cornwall, and looks into the ghost stories that make those places so fascinating. You get to explore lots of locations, from creepy crypts, to isolated farmhouses, looking for ghosts using ghost-hunting gadgets...like the Night-Vision Camera, EMF Meter and EVP recorder. Some will have seen those gadgets on shows like Most Haunted, but The Lost Crown is actually scarier than that show, as the ghosts seem so real. I highly recommend this game to anyone who likes ghost-hunting, adventure stories or detective games.

5.0 out of 5 stars unmissable entertainment, 2 Jul 2008
By D. C. Petty "deepori" (Stockport, Cheshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This is the best game of this year. It's not without faults - character movement is poor, dialogues cannot be skipped and voice acting is dodgy, for instance. The gameplay and storyline more than carry the day. It doesn't require a super computer to run it.

The graphics are in black & white with splashes of colour. Very memorable and highly appropriate.

The story is set in a small fictitious seaside town in the UK. Players will be hunting ghosts as well as exploring the area. There is an air of menace to the game, but it's fingernail biting rather than jumping off the chair scary.

The conclusion doesn't close all the strands, but no matter the entertainment value is high.

It's a point-and-click adventure. It comes very highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, epic, Ghost-hunting Adventure game, 18 Jun 2008
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
The Lost Crown is a great, ghost-hunting adventure game for the PC. Fans of the classic ghost story or British Horror films, like The Wickerman or the Hammer classics, will love spotting references and soaking up the atmosphere the game provides during its 30+ hours of gameplay (a bargain at this price!). The puzzles are nice too, with most based either in modern-day ghost-hunting or logical real-world dilemmas. Being an adventure game means the styling is quite specific - the game is point-and-click driven, using the mouse, and there are few 'action' scenes to keep trigger fingers happy, but, if you are looking for something to really get into, and explore, The Lost Crown is perfect.

Written by Jonathan Boakes, creator of the Dark Fall series, the game is vividly set on the coastline of Britain, featuring many real-world locations. There are some nice websites, online, exploring the real-world locations, that are well worth looking into.

This provides a similar atmosphere to The Blair Witch project, a feeling that anything could happen in the 'real world', rather than fictional locations. Virtual tourism has never been so creepy, or unnerving, which is probably why Justadventure.com gave this game an impressive A+, that's 100%. In all honesty, there are a few rough edges, but they are easy to ignore, when a game is this engrossing, strange and downright spooky!
