The Lost Treasure

This has to be my favorite; 1. because it’s long and 2. It’s contains the two pianos 3. It also has the best puzzles in my humble opinion. So because these are the type of games I enjoy, I went searching for others different than these. Well, I ended up abandoning most all other types of adventures for one reason or another. These have proven to be my favorite. They don’t take forever to learn them. A toil that is my least favorite about all games. When I pay for a game I don’t want to spend hours figuring out how to play. These also contain more clues and puzzles than any other adventure game; of which there seem to be few. These were different. The learning curve was minimal yet they are challenging and fun. But I hate it when it’s all over. That has to be the goal of any good game, is to have players regret when it’s completed. I applaud you Syntaxity. Please make more as I have finished all of them. I assume that is what you are doing so let me say I support your efforts by which I mean I will gladly pay for these games as I would rather pay for a game than getting it for free.. I await your next adventure with great eagerness. I will keep checking back for future episodes of the lost?, or the missing? In ? Castle, no matter, I will be happy with whatever you come up with. Thank you, Candy

Syntaxity, Since finally trying Blackthorn Castle last year, I was thoroughly impressed by the lack of glitches, smoothe gameplay with a functional and easy to use User Interface, explorative setting locations, challenging yet not too difficult to beat, quality graphics, realistic style, sound effects and music as well as the adventurous nature of these games. One after the other, I tried each game and delightfully found the same satisfaction in all (current) six. Then, you released your bountiful update for the Lost Ship, which was originally much too short. Now seeing the pattern of adding similar updates and extra content, in order of original release, I eagerly await more to be released. If I had to describe these games, in as few words, I would say they are honestly must-haves and instant buys for this genre. If a new game were to be released, I would buy it as soon as I found out about it. Having them all up to now is not enough because they are so satisfying. But there's more. I discovered an interesting alternative to their replay value. Sure once you play them you might get tired. I liked Blackthorn so much I kept replaying it, but with an unexpected challenge I put to myself. Memory. I've repeatedly played them several times each as a way to stregthen my memory So, I look forward to each new game/additional content Syntaxity releases. To be honest, you couldn’t release add-on or new game content fast enough. Thank you.

I’m not entirely sure exactly why, but this game was a lot of fun to play. It just seemed like it “clicked” for me (point-and-clicked😬). The music was nice, though a bit repetitive. The navigation was spot-on: movement was fast and precise, interaction with objects was a breeze, and tools worked as they should on the first try (yay!). The puzzles were of average difficulty. Many of them had to be solved sequentially as they depended on each other for certain clues, but that seemed to add to the feeling of being on a journey. I also liked that not all objects had immediate application upon discovery; some things you found at the beginning didn’t make sense until later in the story. Additionally, some puzzles at the start couldn’t be solved until much further into the tale. For me, this helped give the game a bit more complexity and a somewhat satisfying feeling as I finally figured out how to solve that puzzle that I nearly forgot about. Certainly one of the more enjoyable of this genre that I’ve played, I whole-heartedly recommend this game and would consider investing in some of their other ones.
