PuppetShow: Lost Town

Puppet Show: Lost Town

Operating System: PC/Mac
Website:  BigFish page
Rating: 3/5
Comments: This is from the Puppet Show series and it's a nice continuation of the crazy old lady trying to regain her lost youth. The story is nice, it flows well with the other games so no problems there.

The art style reminds me of MCF:RtR and the talking NPCs are surprising in that they animated them talking. I was rather impressed by that because it didn't look really tacky like most of those things do. mind you there's only 3 people in the game, the rest are all robots or puppets, but it's still cool.

The HO scenes weren't too hard but some of the puzzle just got annoying. Some of them I didn't know what I was meant to be doing and the help screen doesn't automatically pop up when you get all the puzzle pieces together. It's only a simply click on the help button but it would have been nice if it told you before you got stuck in and there's no reset button!

This game could have been so much easier if there was a journal or something to guide you in the right direction. I found myself getting lost and wandering around a lot more than I should have. Quite frustrating.
