User Reviews: Haunted Hotel

Top reviews

  • One of the better games I have played

    Top notch graphics. Really cool plot. Reason for 4 vs. 5 stars is that it was fairly easy and much shorter than an average game. But good value for money, particularly when on sale. Recommended.
  • Very short

    I'm very glad that I got this on sale for it is too short. Also, all of the hotel rooms are drab, dim, and repetitive. It would have been nice to have other locations to explore instead of just the miserable hotel. A backstory would have been ideal for that. Too uninteresting to venture into the bonus chapter.
  • Great Game but...

    I found this game shorter than other Elephant Games, which was a bit of a disappointment. However, I did really like it. The graphics were superb, as they are in all games done by Elephant. The HOS were really good and there was a wonderful variety of puzzles. The storyline was a good one as well.
  • really good

    Although I didn't buy the full version yet, I really enjoyed the preview a lot. As someone who's played a ton of these type of games, this one is very well crafted.
  • Very Interactive!

    Never a dull moment with this game. All the bells and whistles with collectibles. Even when you're not sure what to do, something happens. Also much more creepy than the other Haunted Hotels. Five stars for sure!
  • Been waiting for this!!!

    I've been waiting for this game ever since Ancient Bane was released!! The story and graphics were both good and I really enjoyed it! I can't wait until the next one!!
  • Pop Ups

    I don't like the pop ups either, the new owners of Big Fish should realize we wouldn't be in the game if we didn't already know about them. The advertising is a major turnoff to those of us who already purchase their products and we do t need the interruptions. It might cause some of us to stop buying their games.
  • Loving It

    Best I played in a long time. But do be attentive to the alert posted at the start. Turn the sound up. I wear earbuds. Spookiness and great music fill your head and make this game even better. Thank you one and all.
  • Love Death Sentence to Death!

    Haunted Hotel: Death Sentence seems like another superior game by Elephant Games. I jumped at the chance to purchase it at such a low price! You are a detective searching to see if your other detective buddy, James, is still alive after searching the Haunted Hotel. The mood is suitably creepy, with mood music and dark, eerie rooms to explore. As in most Elephant Games, you are given a good Hint and Skip button, and a super Teleporting Map function. The puzzles have so far been mainly mechanical in nature, such as build the movie projector from the diagram. I am glad that there are Collectibles to gather in each scene, such as decorative glassware. You also are collecting Miniature Characters of each person in the game. Love that aspect, which adds some interest to the game. The Hidden Object puzzles so far have mostly been routine, including one where you use shadow shapes to open doors with other objects. It has been so much fun thus far that it is 2 a.m., and I cannot stop playing! Buy this while you have a chance, and enjoy yourself!
  • Okay but too short

    Totally annoying Big Fish pop ups. Totally disrupt the game. Not the game creators fault. Big Fish you're getting too greedy.

    The HOS are good as are the graphics. My main complaint is that is too short. I'm glad I bought it on sale as it took me only about two hrs to work through it.
