Rite of Passage: Ember Lake

The bonus game is 5-10 minutes long. Developers short-changed customers on this one...

What's happened to this? It used to work normally. Now it has a peculiar halting flow that makes it impossible to play while paying attention to the plot. You have to tap the scene to make it flow forward. If you don't, it won't. Everything else I play works normally, so it's not that. Not worth struggling through--I was only trying it to see if it was better than I remembered. Can't tell.

stashing items behind the hint button is really not fair. It was actually pretty annoying. Main game was long - bonus game way too short.

Enjoyed this one. Thank you.

The game had an interesting storyline, and was lengthy inclusive of the bonus adventure. There was a plethora of interesting tasks to accomplish at each location. You must collect a crystal icon, as well as a morphing object, at each location. The morphs were also present in the HO scenes. The problem was that some of the collectibles were hidden behind icons ( such as the hint button) and were very difficult to access. This was also the case during the treasure hunt. There were a nice variety of HO scenes, and the puzzles were diverse as well. The game was a terrific game, but unfortunately there was a lack of touchscreen sensitivity on the gameplay interface. That reduces the amount of pleasure I get while playing. As such my review will remain at 4 stars. It was still worth playing! Mad Head, your amazing and quirky games will be sorely missed!

I am enjoying the story line and the unusual HOP's. Nice job!

Really enjoyed this game and look forward to more in this title. The treasure hunt is always one of my favorite goodies from Mad Head. However, in this game and others as well the search items are often too close to or behind the corners where the menu/guide icons are located. A minor point, but it complicates the fun.

Good story. Fairly long. Couldn’t expand hidden objects screens. It was difficult to move to the previous page if inventory items without mistakenly clicking on the item closest to the Osage Artie. Dialogue was often inadvertently clicked through without being read.

Great story. No problems, played perfect. Yes the hidden object games were my favorite, really fun. Thanks again for the best.

Thank you for giving us such a wonderful thought out game. I love this series. The storyline was so easy to follow. The map worked great and had so much fun playing. I highly recommend this game.The characters were also very interesting to get to know and I hope I see more of them.
