    I'm really sorry, but I think the developers should prepare themselves way better before trying to make a point and click game that adds up something to the genre (which I loved for 25+ years). There are entire sections and even scenarios that are pretty much a ripoff from The Curse of Monkey Island. Puzles are unimaginative, dialogue feels vague and uninteresting, and honestly, it seemsI'm really sorry, but I think the developers should prepare themselves way better before trying to make a point and click game that adds up something to the genre (which I loved for 25+ years).

Puzles are unimaginative, dialogue feels vague and uninteresting, and honestly, it seems to be written by very, very young and amateurish people... Sorry, but having good taste for games and good intentions isn't enough to make something actually good by your own. I can see some players enjoying it. Sadfully, I'm not counting myself among those. Hopefully the next game will be better, but this one is really, really flat, nice art aside.… Expand

    The art of the game is quite nice, with beautiful locations.
    The story is simple and predictable, also the puzzles.
    Too short and simple.

    Like going on a date with a very pretty lady-gal that as not much to say, speaks in a very monotonous voice and just states the obvious. Sooooo.... The artwork is awesome! Suits the point and click genre perfectly. Sound and music are pretty good. Voice acting is one of the lamest I ever heard.. maybe i'm a little harsh but i mean, it's such a contrast with how great the game looks.

It feels like it was written pre pubescent teens. The caracters couldn't be more cliché, and let's face it, Willy should of been called Weiner... or Weeny. Anywaysss...pretty boring. Looks great. I'm usually not much of a bully but this game really gets it out of me. Maybe it was the comparison with Monkey Island that had me expecting too much, maybe i'm just an **** probably a combination of both. Namaste everyone!… Expand

    It is not a very original game but it's a very enjoyable one, which normaly pales in comparison to most people's childhood memories of Monkey Island (a game which, I'm sorry to say I dislike, the only reason I understand people liking it is nostalgia, it's objectively a bad game in today's standards due to its game design).

    Getting to the point, it has a very beautiful art style and fun puzzles, the devs decided to approach level and game design on a horizontal scheme instead of vertical, meaning 90% of the map's areas are open throughout the game and you have to gather little pieces of a big puzzle in each location, which is an interesting idea and seems well executed.
    The story is predictable but not unenjoyable, the voice acting I found enjoyable (not very professional still) and overall the game feels refreshing, although it fails to root its story deep inside your heart and memories till the end of time, which, from a subjective standpoint of how I experienced the game, makes it inferior to other fantasy p&ca's like The Day of the Rabbit.    … Expand

    Cortito, fácil y sencillo. Muy clásico en su desarrollo y puzzles. El diseño de arte se destaca para más que bien.

    Willy Morgan and the Curse of Bone Town is great for both newcomers to the point and genre, as well as hardened veterans. Regardless of which category you fall into, you’ll likely be able to finish the game in an evening. With its charming visuals, captivating story, and inviting puzzles, Willy Morgan and the Curse of Bone Town has plenty to offer.

    Willy Morgan is a fun and enjoyable take on point-and-click adventure, but it lacks depth.

    Though there’s nothing in the puzzles of Willy Morgan and the Curse of Bone Town that offends, there’s also nothing that surprises or delights. The story and visuals equally lacked anything to seize my attention. Willy Morgan and the Curse of Bone Town is a passable few hours of adventure gaming, but its design would have been below-average in the ’90s and is well behind the curve of what’s available today.
