Manufacturer's Description

Travel with Nigel Danvers to an eerie seaside town on England’s east coast. Learn to use advanced techniques used by real paranormal investigators, and uncover an ancient mystery and treasure. But, beware, not all of the town’s residents will help in your mission, whether they are alive or dead.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic creepy adventure, have great fun hunting ghosts, 15 April 2009
By The Monkey (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
The Lost Crown is one of the very best adventure games that I have played for many years.

As the player character (Nigel Danvers), you explore beautiful and very realistic locations throughout the game in a hunt for the lost Saxon crown.

During your journey, you encounter many interesting and strange characters, lots of wonderful locations, creepy voices, ghosts, unexplained phenomenon and lots more.

I spent days and days playing this game and once I started, I just couldn't stop. The game evokes a range of emotions as you play. In much of the game you feel that 'someone' is watching you and there are certainly plenty of moments during the game where you will simply `jump' out of your chair!

The game has a wonderful creepy ambience (especially when you are playing at 2am with a 5.1 surround sound system or with headphones on). There are also many moments in the game where you will feel elated at solving puzzles or helping characters (and ghosts).

The characters are superb; you feel that you really get to know all of them as you progress throughout the game. You also obtain assistance from characters, essential at later points in the game whilst you are being chased by ghostly figures!

As the game character, you get to use many fantastic ghost hunting gadgets to find and communicate with lots of ghosts!

To sum up:

Graphics = superb! Wonderfully rendered, the game also feels alive with lots of 3D artwork and actors (birds, cats, wildlife, people, reeds swaying, rolling fog etc).

Sound = spectacular! The sound effects (footsteps, 'over here' voices, ghostly sounds etc), eerie soundtrack and dialogs are amazing.

Game play = hours of fun, creepy, spooky adventuring and hunting for ghosts.

If you love adventuring, solving mysteries, exploring beautiful locations and enjoy being frightened with lots of creepy encounters - you must play this game!

Can you find the lost Saxon crown? Can you solve the mysteries?

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic ghostly adventure, 14 April 2009
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
We loved playing this game. The story unfolded as we solved the many puzzles and noted down the clues to the mysteries surrounding the quite creepy and isolated places of the game. My children found exploring the haunted buildings a real adventure, and we all enjoyed working out which ghost hunting tool would help uncover the clues we would need on our way to find the Lost Crown. I fully recommended this for gamers of all ages.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Lost Crown, one of my best game purchases!, 14 April 2009
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
I wasn't sure what to expect from this game, The Lost Crown, but it turns out to be one of my best game purchases, ever! It's certainly unusual, with a very distinctive presentation, and features a great (ghost) story, set on the foggy coast of England. I've never played many detective style games before, so delighted in poking through peoples homes, secret places and long forgotten archaeological sites, on my mission to find The Lost Crown. It's a spooky game, well worth the money, and is sure to surprise and delight those who like to think a little during their playtime, and get to the bottom of the greatest mysteries.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly original and entertaining
I was led to believe that this PC game was an adaptation of the M.R.James ghost-story, A Warning to the Curious. Well, I can report that it is - and it isn't. Read more
