I found that by the time the game declares you've got a "suspect" there's enough evidence assembled that only one person could possibly have comitted the crimes. I actually found the murkiest case to be the first one - right up until the point the killer openly confesses to you before the games system even gives you a suspect.Overall worth the hours I spent on it but I'm not interested in a second playthrough. It seems a waste to get things wrong just to see what happens. As a lifetime fan of point and click adventure games, I was waiting for Lamplight City with a great expectation, mostly because the published videos and screenshots promised a cool classic gameplay along with a dark and mysterious atmosphere. Now, after finishing the first case, my feeling are somehow mixed and if Steam allows me to give a neutral rating, I would definitely use it. Yet I still incline a little more to the positive side, so let's give it a thumb up for now. Over and all, it is still a playable adventure game which is quite rare in the time of 3D action hits, VR, AR etc. A resemblance to Gabriel Knight 1 (the original version from 1993, not the horrible remake) cannot be denied when you see the system of dialogues, caption font, city map style, even the slightly touched voodoo.However, there are some annoying things I would like to mention.macOS bugs:1) The game does not remember settings, so even if I change fullscreen to windowed, the next time I start the game it is back to fullscreen.2) When you click a hotspot (attempting to perform an action) right after a conversation ends, nothing happens and you must click again.3) No achievements are unlocked. Yes, I love achievements and each time I play a new game, I wish to get them all. However, the idea of playing this game over again (once the bug is fixed) to receive the already earned achievements does not make me too happy.The gameplay issues and annoyances:1) Documents are hard to read due to badly chosen "hand writing" and anti-aliasing. Using a standard font would not probably look that cool but at least I wouldn't have to struggle decrypting the text, even on a big display.2) Comments (on magnifying glass click) are always the same, even if the hero already knows new information. What is worse, the comment dialogs are always the same too which makes you turn to fast clicking (to skip them) each time you accidentally explore an already explored item. Since Lamplight City obviously focuses on the retro style, I didn't expect a stunning modern graphics and animations, but the more I would like to see a deep and complicated story with many turnouts and detailed conversations. It is nothing like that - the story is, unfortunatelly, pretty straightforward and does not make me feel like I am playing a different kind of detective game, as the teaser video promises.3) Instead of an inventory as we know it from classic adventure games, there is a casebook which is automatically populated by clues, suspects, leads etc. as you progress in the story. However, there are no items to use, which degrades the whole interactive play to exploring (magnifying glass), talking (mouth) and occasional opening/closing (pointing finger). I am not an advocate of bizarre puzzles like "combine a duct tape, a maple syrup and some cat hair to make a false moustache" but removing the items completely is, in my opinion, a step in a wrong direction.4) The scenes are too static, most of them never change during the whole case. Once a NPC appears there, it will stay at the same position for the rest of the chapter (maybe except the hero's wife), which makes me feels like everybody is just waiting for me the solve the mystery ASAP. Although you can examine various things, the number of those which can be really used for something or push the story forward is very low.As I said in the beginning, Lamplight City is more a good than a bad game. Still, 15 Euro seems to be quite a high price, considering the imperfection and design defects, I would recommend to wait for a sale.. Not what I was hoping for but still not a waste of money. I was really hoping for something like the 90's game KGB (aka Conspiracy) but maybe not as punishingly difficult. In terms of difficulty this is the direct opposite. This is an interactive story more than a game, as the locations, interactions and choices are very limited. It's essentially about interacting with everything in every scene and exhausting all communication. There are a few places where your choice in interaction will have an impact on the story, but they usually come with a very clear warning. There aren't really any real puzzles to solve, except perhaps one (which is still very simple), and the casebook will let you know if a person or location still needs more work. Any clues you find will not really require you to think about them; they'll simply open new dialogue options or other interactions that will let you advance the story.Good:+ Enjoyable story and setting+ Loved the retro graphics+ Good soundtrack and ok voice actingLess good:- The complete lack of challenge. There's way too much help and far too few interaction options. You basically just click your way through the game without having to think much at all.- Slightly buggy on Linux, I had to close and restart the game occasionally as the input response deteriorated with time.- The first two-three cases were pretty fun, but then the formula was too obvious and it just started to feel as I simply had to do a lot of clicking to find out what was happening next.I recommend this if you want a very casual detective story/game where you can explore a few different paths, but not at all if you want any kind of mental challenge.. Well written plot, beautifully crafted characters and alternate history worldtop notch voice acting!My only gripe was that the ending was a little anticlimactic,But its up there as one of my favourite point and click adventures of 2018!. Really good detective game! I love it! Great voice acting, witty and funny dialogues.. While I was patiently waiting for this game for months and have played other games by Grundislav Games, Lamplight city somehow failed to get me hooked. It somehow feels very slow in the beginning, so I was losing interest after the flower shop.It feels kinda unfair to say that I don't recommend the game, but I wouldn't recommend it, so I guess that's not recommending it.. Wow. I became almost immediately immersed in this game from the start. I've read the other reviews--almost all positive, although I understand where people get irritable when certain cultural or political views become a part of an adventure game...but for me, I've personally followed and happily played probably all of Francisco Gonzalez's games, even way back from freeware like "Back Door Man" and all of the "Ben Jordan" games. This game in particular showed his growth as a game developer, and like I said, drew me in to the plotline from the start. I loved the artwork, I loved being able to work my way through cases in my own time, even if my choices led to less than optimal outcomes. I enjoyed that it wasn't too linear, and I really grew fond of the main character(s), even having several laughs along the way, despite the fact that it was a "who-dunnit" murder mystery. I can't say enough complimentary things, really. I get picky with adventure games, and this is a MUST PLAY. Period. Trading Cards available: Trading Cards, backgrounds, badges, and emoticons are now available for Lamplight City! If you have already played the game, check your Steam inventory for cards that have dropped automatically depending on the time you've played.. Patch v 1.07: Some minor updates today:- Removed casebook objective to speak to Jonas Usher in Case 3 after closing off his office as a lead.- Updated German newspaper text and book translations.This patch does not invalidate saved games.. Update to Version 1.08: Based on player feedback, this new patch allows cases to be declared unsolvable when a suspect is added to the Casebook, in addition to closing off all leads.Previous save games will still work, however the option to declare the case unsolvable will not appear if a suspect has already been added.. Update to Version 1.09 and other news: End of year kudos. Post-Release Patch Notes: Lamplight City has been patched a few times after release. The latest version is v 1.06 (version number visible on the Settings screen)Major bug fixes are as follows:- Fixed a bug which made Case 1 impossible to declare unsolvable if conversations were failed in a specific order.- Fixed a conversation between Miles and Bill repeating in front of the Spectre Society after getting kicked out- Fixed an issue where returning to Upton’s apartment in Case 5 would trigger the ending encounter prematurely- Fixed a bug where the ambient sound from the coffee house would continue playing if the player made the connection between victims while there.- Fixed the "Thorough" achievement so it should now trigger.- Mac and Linux versions of the game will now remembr the language settings.- Lip sync errors in Linux have been corrected.Previously saved games will still work.
