Yeah, I posted something similar on the forum. It’s way too short. Moreover, the abrupt ending is extremely short and is followed by stills and text relating to the sequel (Dracula 5). It follows the episodic model, but gives the impression of being a full, stand-alone game.

As for its quality, I’m not all that impressed. Bad characters/characterisation, bland story and an unnecessary mechanic (the medication). Some of the puzzels that didn’t involve your inventory were decent though. 

Good game but I’m a bit disapointed with it. It’s not a “full” game, it’s episodic. Too short for the price ($19,99). This should be told for the gamers so they know what to expect.

I played this a couple of days ago (on iPad), and my experience wasn’t as positive as the reviewer’s. While I thought it was a fine Layton clone (with only one or two dubious puzzles), I was really put off by the obnoxious characters and (what I perceived as) godawful writing and voice acting. I’m not sure I’ll play the rest—then again, the episode was sold for the ridiculous price of 99 cents, so it’ll be hard to resist impulse-buying the rest.

I have to second that comment about the Josh Mandel interview.  It shall be a fine honor simply for Laney to be in such a trinity. 

“Wade is Clara Thornton’s cousin, and Clara is Jesslyn’s mom. Charlotte was Clara’s sister, and Harper is also Clara’s sister. Confused? I certainly was.”

I think Charlotte and Harper were actually Clara’s cousins (unless Clara’s unknown father was Roger Drummond *gasp*!  Did I miss that plotline somewhere?)

Overall,  I enjoyed the game (just love spooky mansions) and glad to see Her Interactive finally added a dialog skip feature.

You’re welcome, Laney!   I’d just like to add one thing that I forgot. Now that I talked about favorite interviews I did so far I just have to add Josh Mandel to this interview and the one with Rob.  One of the greatest people on planet earth. I feel terrible about forgetting to include his interview in my statement.

Good review, but you confused Clarity with Charity on page 2.

Excellent interview!  This game just keeps getting more and more interesting!

Ingmar, you are too kind! Your support has been absolutely invaluable—not only have you given me wonderful advice, but you’ve also just made me feel incredibly welcome within the adventure gaming community as a whole! Thank you a million times for allowing me the pleasure of participating in such a great interview; you just hit upon all of the right questions for this project!

I have done lots of interviews since joining AG in August 2012, but I have to admit this is my personal favorite so far (along with the interview with Rob Landeros).  As soon as I found out about this project I just knew I had to get in touch with the creator as I was completely thrilled from the first moment on.  I talked with Laney a lot throughout the recent past and I’m just incredibly impressed by her way of expressing her thoughts, her endless dedication and the depth behind her approach.  It’s no lie when I say this interview is is so full of passion that it became an inspiration for myself.

A remake?

I tried it very briefly in a weekend beta and it seemed pretty good. I just don’t have time for MMOs really, but I think I’ll be grabbing it from a sale eventually. Personally I wish they’d made this a regular RPG.

Seems very interesting, I hope I get a reminder when this is out.

Hey, this games seems to be a remake of Level9-s Scapeghost from 1989!

Any clues?

I think the music is fine, but I wish they’d hide the ragdolls a bit more!
The fight sequence especially looks like some sacks thrown together and when he’s hitting the unspecified someone it looks like he’s not in control of his movements .
And the backpack removing should probably have been left out of the trailer. It looks more like a weakness than a strength.

But, there’s nothing I see that makes me not want to play it. I’m still intrigued by the setting, and the backgrounds are very vibrant.
Every time I see a Mobius trailer I’m interested in the game again, and looking forward to more info.

I liked the investigation inventory.
