    Underrated. Sure the story is horrible and abruptly ends right when it is actually just getting started. Basically, the scene is set (in like 5-8 hours), the initial mystery happens and not much more the 5 minutes of gameplay latter and in one conversation the story is told and concluded (even before the solution of the mystery has been hinted at). So the story is ridiculous and horribleUnderrated. Sure the story is horrible and abruptly ends right when it is actually just getting started.

So the story is ridiculous and horrible but it contains some unique and interesting features. Mainly a real time system, many different optional things you can do, multiple endings, and a nice long and atmospheric scene setting intro.… Expand

    It's pretty ironic that Dead Mountaineer's Hotel could have been an amazing, strong experience of a game. But sadly, with all its flaws in design, the inconsistencies as well as the missing finale, it feels like a missed opportunity. [March 2012]

    Dead Mountaineer's Hotel is almost a case study of what an adventure game shouldn't be, which is all the more unfortunate considering its immense potential.

    We take a look on Strugatsky brother's videogame adaptation, Dead Mountaineer's Hotel, and interesting adventure that end up being a poorly told story, with an awkward gameplay and the feeling of not being finished a good example of how NOT to build a graphic adventure.
