Dark Tales: Edgar Allan Poe’s The Tell-tale Heart - A Hidden Obj

It’s all zoomed in so I wasted my money on a game I can’t even play

The game is zoomed in and unplayable. I’ve tried deleting and reloading twice.

Game just not what expected for Edgar Allan Poe themed game. Had some "gore". Otherwise, nothing noteworthy.

Very disappointed in this game. It just ends abruptly. Was expecting a lot more based on previous Poe games. This one was way too short with an ending that just came out of nowhere and didn't explain why the murderer committed the murders. The map is useless as it doesn't allow for automatic transport. Oh, and add to that the huge glitch in the bonus game HOP where I can't pick up the prosthetic leg. All in all this game is a big fail! I want my money back!

I am stuck in a HOP in the bonus game, in the morgue. I cannot retrieve the final item. When I push Hint in the HOP, I get an arrow indicating to go back. When I go back and push Hint, it highlights the HOP area. And I just cannot get that last item even though it is huge and right in the middle of the screen. Am I missing something, or is it a glitch?

The graphic violence at the beginning was completely unnecessary in a game like this, and seeing blood splatter on the woman's face every time I opened it became an annoyance. The art was good but the games weren't smooth at all and would jump at certain points to the extent I couldn't figure out what I did to solve them; I couldn't understand what some of them even wanted me to do. Many were a fail in my book. Hidden Object were mostly enjoyable and required more than just clicking on the items, and there was variety. However, a transporting map is a must, and this one didn't have it. I wouldn't play it again.

I am a huge fan of Big Fish games and I have played every Dark Tales game they have out out. This was by far the worst game I have ever played. Glitchy, too short and the puzzles were insulting they were so easy. I had actually thought the game broke or something it ended so soon and so abruptly. They actually have the nerve to charge $3.99 and $6.99 for this? Would seriously like my money back.

I'm not surprised at the low ratings as there were definitely some things that should have been better, no interactive map(only a general map that showed where you were and where you should go but no teleporting). That stuck out in my mind. However, cuddos to ERS for bringing us something a little different! Made it very interesting. The graphics were phenomenal as usual but more R rated which was awesome to me! I love scary stuff! Great story. Felt like you were actually really involved in solving this case! Thanks ERS for trying something different! I enjoyed it and highly recommend it.

There's a glitch in one of the HODs in the bonus chapter, the one with the prosthetic leg. Pls fix !

Greetings, Gamers: 👄 (3rd attempt on submitting review for publishing. Of course with reviews this negative, BF doesn't want to publish them!) And I mean exactly that: on so many levels, I just don't get it. This storyline (if one can call it that) has nothing to do with Poe's masterful short story The Tell Tale Heart; so why was his name and story's title involved? The opening sequence is gory, gratuitous and grating. Why grating? Because it plays on the continuous loop as you open the game. Like others, I play the games for escapism and enjoyment. The murders depicted were something one can read about or see in the media on a daily basis. It's unequivocally uncalled for in games such as these. There were glitches galore: sometimes tapping the tool bar sent me back a scene or even two. Application of certain devices for scenes (using a coin to loosen screws) didn't work until the third or fourth try. Frustrating, to say the least. As others point out, map doesn't transport. The autopsy goggles were a fiasco, not working half the time. Both the main game and bonus game end with unsatisfactory conclusions. It just goes on and on... Perhaps my expectations were too high, given that Poe's name was attached to the game and the stylish way in which the game is presented. Nice artwork (with the exception of the aforementioned issues) and voices were fine but that's about it. Edgar Allan Poe certainly deserves better than this, as do we the consumers. Until next time, fellow gamers, May the tell-tale beating of the stars light your way✨✨✨🤗✨✨✨💀✨✨✨🗝✨✨✨💋✨✨✨
