Worth Playing

Provided you're not short on empathy, Blackwood Crossing has a good tale to tell. The various forms of loss and growing up are dealt with quite well, while the fanciful setting gives you the impetus to keep going even if you know exactly how the tale will end. It does need some work on the puzzle mechanics, as a fiddly detection system and slow walking can be frustrating once the solution is known. Overall, this is a good first effort from the development team, and it's worth a look if you're a genre fan.

Blackwood Crossing’s marvelous, deep and touching story overcomes the fact that it is full of bugs and very short. It’s hard to find another adventure experience like Blackwood Crossing.
