    Do not expect a smooth journey with Ariane, sometimes you will find difficulty in moving her to the spot you want, and you can get 'stucked' in a certain spot with no other way out but to load your previous saved game to save the day. Some of the puzzles are original, and thus challenging, this game is not suitable for the amatuer adventure gamer. Voice acting is not bad and Do not expect a smooth journey with Ariane, sometimes you will find difficulty in moving her to the spot you want, and you can get 'stucked' in a certain spot with no other way out but to load your previous saved game to save the day.

  1. A breath of fresh air in the adventure genre. Considering the level of detail that has gone into its design, the exceptional musical score, an overall enjoyable pace, a good story, over 40 hours of gameplay and 2 possible endings, this a title worth owning.
  2. Cheat Code Central

    Unfortunately there is nothing memorable about this game. The characters are one-dimensional and the story runs its course in about five hours - but the game just keeps going and going and going. The title of the game should be changed to Escape From the Center of this Game.
  3. It’s story skillfully blends some of the most famous fictional elements of H.G. Wells and Jules Verne alongside more recent faraway works like DinoTopia and Jurassic Park, with the added pleasure of cinematically orchestrated music and beautiful graphics to engage players and immerse them in a magical world.
