Reviews

Darkestville Castle is an appreciative, well-paced effort that should keep fans of adventure games happy. Whilst the puzzles can involve a lot of legwork and some oddball solutions, you’re encouraged in the right directions and the world isn’t expansive enough to get lost in. The structure feels tight and the writing is nicely executed, despite some of the visuals underwhelming.

PlayStation Country

Darkestville Castle is an overdose of nostalgia and pointing and clicking. It is far from being a remarkable production, but it can be fun for the fans of the genre. It presents no challenges, but it can fill a rainy afternoon when you need a quick and easy way to improve your mood.

Softpedia

For content starved fans of the classic point and click adventure, it’s hard not to get excited about a new entry in the genre, particularly one whose visuals inspire a feel good nostalgic hit for all things LucasArts. Dig a little deeper though and you’ll find this is an underwhelming imitator of the legends of yesteryear. Too many obscure puzzles and too many unfunny jokes prevent Darkestville Castle from being the Secret of Monkey Island successor it so obsessively wants to be.
