Brink of Consciousness: The Lonely Hearts Murders - A Hidden Objects Adventure App Reviews

ok

its not one of my favourite, the first brink of consciousness was much better. the puzzles are moderately challenging at best and the HOS are quite boring. a bit too much talking (cut scenes) for me but I can see how that can be interesting. there is a bit of walking back and forth.

Game will not load

The game will not load after the opening count down.I am a a loyal fan and I have paid for the whole game. Please fix the problem.

Its alright

Being a huge fan of the first one, I had high expectations for the sequel. The storyline itself was intriguing but the mystery was slightly lacking. It was a bit short, I finished in a matter of three hours whereas the first one took me two days. I can still remember the first one vividly but I can barely remember details for this one after a few days. The puzzles were fairly simple, graphics were stunning and voice acting was manageable. I was able to catch some hints made towards the first Brink of Consciousness, which Im guessing takes place many years after this one so I applaud the creators for that. Overall, I was expecting something with the caliber of the first one, and it fell a bit short. This wouldve been perfectly fine as a stand alone game rather than part of the BOC series.

Great story line, good game !!

I really liked this game, the story line was good and it was like watching a who done it short film, the scenes were very nicely done. A few things i didnt like; I had to skip some of the puzzles just because they were very long and one was glitchy I wasnt able to finish it. Another thing I didnt like was the "X" button didnt always work and found my self trying it a few times to close a box.

Not my favorite

First game was so much better. This game was slow in the beginning - quality over all was very low.

Great game but...

Excellent graphics and storyline but some objects take so many taps to pick up or even a lot if taps to "x" out a box. Same for hos. And the "loading" in between locations are too long and annoying. In spite if all these disadvantages, its still a great game worth playing

Dont waste your time

Only was able to play for a few minutes before it crashes! Tried to reload but always crashes across from gate! PLEASE FIX!!

Good...could have been better.

Why have a map if you cant teleport? Especially when the loading between locations seemed to get longer and longer as game progresses. And most especially since the player has to go back and forth all over the map sooooo much! HO scenes were very basic...not bad, but not exciting. So. Much. Talking. For me, that really began to wear thin. I hated to do it, since a lot of the games effort was put into storyline, but I ended up skipping a bit of the dialogue. Just...so. much. talking. Some of the puzzles in the bonus chapter I could not complete because it was too tedious trying to get the game to read my touch and move puzzle pieces. As in a lot of these games, discovered items are placed in strange areas...but in this game, the locations seemed overly absurd. Example, off the top of my head...a fish in a mailbox. Or, say, a piece of a wardrobe lock in a home being found in a wine vat on a mountain top by a crumbled bridge. And there were even more eye-rolling , groan-inducing things than that throughout the game. Especially when you cant teleport, and you realize the lock piece you just found hidden in a statue was only one of MANY pieces needed for that particular lock...and that the game will have you walking back and forth and back and forth and back and forth between all the long loading locations...until, finally, you have all the pieces and can open that freaking lock...only to retrieve one of two keys to a drawer thats a mere 10 loading screens away.

Needs to be fixed

Crashes almost everytime I try to play it.

I love this game!

First, I had no glitches when playing this game on my iPhone 5. But I also loved the structure of it. The dialogues were longer than usual, but were so well done, the length didnt bother me. I didnt find the loading time between scenes particularly long, and though I would have liked an interactive map, I didnt find it a major handicap that it didnt have one. Why rush through a good thing? I dont care where useful objects are found as long as they fit together logically. This was not one of those games where a closet is opened with an artichoke. Thats good enough for me. What I did find was a game of good length with an unusually engaging storyline as well as seamless gameplay. The scenery was stunningly beautiful, and the voice acting top notch. The mini games get excellent marks for originality. They were on the easy side, which suits me fine. I cant wait for a sequel, and believe me, I dont say that often.

High quality game

The best voice-acting and story of any big fish game Ive played so far. Mini-games were great too. Really well done.

Doesnt work

Tried playing on iPhone 6 and the visuals dont fit the screen. Its like all the effects are shifted half way off the screen, but if you touch the screen in the place where the buttons should be, itll respond like if the game were fitting the screen correctly.
