After playing so many mediocre games from the big publishers, DF3 was a welcome treat. If you like adventure games, you must get this one.

It won’t impress you with its story, but if you like an adventure that can send shivers down your spine as it flexes your brain, you owe it to yourself to check out Dark Fall: Lost Souls.
-
A solid story well told and creaky gameplay mechanics result in a good game, but one that's definitely not recommended for a wide audience.
-
An adventure shocking like a Stephen King Blockbuster. But it never gets too obvious, the horror elements are all psychological. Great atmosphere, and aside from the slow pace of the game, it works out quite well.

Dark Fall: Lost Souls proves that the point-and-click genre hasn’t met his demise yet. Thankfully passionate individuals like Jonathan Boakes create games like this in their spare time. Lost Souls may not be of the same high quality as the other two entries in the series, but it still is a must-have for people with a weak for a good horror story and old fashioned point-and-click games.

PC FormatThis is a flawed game, but it's getting better. [Feb 2010, p.95]

It is sad to see so many good ideas killed by their implementation.

AceGamezDark Fall: Lost Souls is aimed squarely at the Myst crowd: if you like taking your time pondering over clues, taking meticulous notes and solving some brain-bending puzzles, then you’ll render a considerable degree of enjoyment from the game. If not, then its tension and suspense will be lost on you thanks to the snail’s pace it takes and the distinct lack of anything remotely exciting happening.

nicklJan 19, 2010The game tries to hard to be frightening, and the result is quit tedious.. Full of horror cliches and a really bad voice acting.
