Another installment of the adventure game series about ghost hunters. It was developed by the independent studio Darkling Room, the creators of the critically acclaimed Dark Fall series. The Last Crown: Blackenrock is a story spin-off which focuses on the unresolved mystery from The Lost Crown: A Ghosthunting Adventure. This way, the production is a sort of a interquel of the first and the second part of the story. Nigel Danvers, the protagonist of the title’s predecessors, decides to investigate the source of the visions that haunt him. A name “Blackenrock” appears in all of them. Together with his partner, Lucy Reubans, he goes back to the seaside town of Saxton, armed in special equipment for paranormal activity detection. These devices are the biggest novelty in the game. Last Crown: Blackenrock is a point ‘n’ click adventure game with both FPP and TPP cameras. Similarly to its predecessors, the title features black-and-white graphics — only the most important objects use different colors.

The Last Crown: Midnight Horror

October 29, 2015
An adventure horror game from Darkling Room studios, creators of the Last Crown series and the Dark Fall trilogy. Once again, we assume the role of Nigel Danvers, a researcher who devoted himself to supernatural cases. This time, he planned to spend Halloween investigating a haunted hotel in small port town. The story of The Last Crown: Midnight Horror draws inspiration from old tales and beliefs related to Celtic festival of Samhain. Even though we will meet old faces, the game has been polished as a standalone production, meaning that knowledge of events from previous titles of the series isn’t necessary. As far as game mechanics go, The Last Crown: Midnight Horrors is a classic adventure game, so we mainly explore locations, collect items and solve puzzles. Some of the latter require usage of authentic gadgets used by modern ghost hunters, while others come down to recreating old pagan rituals. The Last Crown: Midnight Horror stands out with its monochromatic style – for most of the time we are presented with black and white visuals.
