Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
40 of 151 sampled reviews raised it
What sets Ravenhearst apart from many casual games of its era is its strong narrative focus, gothic atmosphere, and willingness to intertwine story progression with gameplay in a way that feels purposeful rather than incidental.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
9 of 151 sampled reviews raised it
There are truly no unfairly hidden items there are simply 100s of them to sort through and the graphics, at least on my computer are comparable to the game I already own.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
8 of 151 sampled reviews raised it
The only gameplay I enjoyed was doing the jigsaw pieces of the diary, which only makes up roughly 10% of each level.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
6 of 151 sampled reviews raised it
No terrible voice-acting, no creepy (and poorly done) human animation, no tedious puzzles for which the only challenge is how long you are willing to sit there spinning dials.
