Blackwell 5: Epiphany

Like the other parts in the series, I enjoyed this one and the characters were interesting. However, I had issues with lost progress, and having to manually save the game detracted from the story.

Bought all of these and they sucked me in. I loved playing them and I’m sad it’s over. If you like point and clicks you will love these. I’d love to see some more Blackwell games, maybe a few prequels or sequels.

Play the game, in order, from the first one. All the references throughout the game will make more sense, but your enjoyment of this final one will be fuller. The first game had some awkward gameplay and was short - but the story underpinning the entire series is well written and somewhat introspective. This last game was the best of the series. When Lia’s storyline unfolded I was impressed that the game went in that direction - this wasn’t going to be some quirky rinky-dink yarn. I liked the game’s conclusion as well. Very fitting.

Now I’m just sitting here, I’ve watched the credits and everything. I feel abandoned.

What a rollercoaster this series was! Do not pass it up. I see people saying they started with this game to see if they want to play the whole series. Don't. Start from the beginning. Part of the fun is watching the graphics and voice acting get tighter and tighter through the series. Did not want this series to end, can't wait for more Wadjet Eye ports.

Beautifully written and engaging. Interesting puzzles and a great, satisfying wrap up to the saga.

This was a very pleasant experience. I appreciated the length and deep story line of the game. I wish there were more games out like this.

A satisfying emotional end to a well-crafted series that delivers on all its story promises

They keep deleting all the bad reviews instead of FIXING the mess. THIS GAME DOES NOT RETAIN YOUR PROGRESS!!!!!!! Know it now. I'm spitting nails if you can't tell. DEEEEEEEEELETE!!!!!!!

The entire Blackwell series is highly recommended. They are approachable adventures that will test you but won't frustrate. The story is the star of this series. Dave Gilbert's tale is worth the very small admission price. High praise, too, for the voice actors. The commentary option offers a fun opportunity to replay the episode.
