Let's Play Mystery Legends: The Phantom of the Opera, Bonus Level

[ladycdaae]

So I was going through the bonus level, and was about halfway through when I realized my screencapture program had turned off when I rebooted the computer. Gaaah! Luckily the bonus level is short and separate from the actual game, so it only required a second quick run-through to set everything to rights. And here it is!

I tried a few other Big Fish games and they gave me non-endings, too. Very disappointing. But I really enjoyed this game and I loved your Let's Play.

Which games were those? I'd like to do more of their HOGs and I'm looking for recommendations for ones to try/avoid.

The new Hound of the Baskervilles one was GREAT, and actually totally worth getting the collector's edition for the bonus level.

The game itself, and the bonus level too, were much longer, with more variety to the puzzles -- which were also more difficult, too. But still plenty of HOGs to play.

Very worth getting it. Although, I should warn that the story has very little to do with the Holmes one. But it's so fun to play!

Haunted Hills Sanitarium? Nah. Skip. Sleepy Hollow? DEFINITELY skip.

Um, I should clarify: the story does HAVE Holmes and Watson, and Henry Baskerville. But it's definitely not the canon version!!

In my experience, the collector's editions that come with extra levels have cliffhangers, but I haven't played that many. I played the Sanitarium game that ink_space mentioned and it had an awful, awful cliffhanger, but I thought it was fun and eerie up to that point. I could do without the background music that sounded like crying and moaning, too. I bought the non-ce version of Reincarnations and thought that was pretty fun, but it only has two long levels and one short one.

My suggestion would be to pick titles that appeal to you. Sorry if that's not very good advice, but I have such bizarre taste. I had money to spare, so I downloaded the Antiques Roadshow game for the lulz and was pleasantly surprised. It's pretty easy and doesn't have much plot, but Antiques Roadshow could definitely use more grave-robbing. The site forum has good comments from other players.

I disliked the Phantom ending so much I literally threw up my hands and screamed at my screen(then Big Fish mentioned there was a collectors edition I traded it in for to get a more complete and less aggravating ending
