Lamplight City mobile Game Reviews

Gave me something to look forward to. I work a super stressful day job and by the time I get home, I am completely drained. This game honestly gave me something to look forward to at the end of my day, to the point where I would wonder what clues I could have missed while I was at work. This was a nice reprieve from a pandemic hellscape and I really enjoyed every character and case. Thanks for the hours of fun!

Boring game with bad graphics. I can’t believe I spent $5 on this. There is so much talking and hardly any playing, plus the graphics are terrible. It feels like a kids game except it’s SO BORING. I wish I could get my money back.

Grew on Me. Didn’t like it at first as there’s a TON of dialogue (twice as much as Thimbleweed Park or WOAM), and you can’t pause it, so if you have someone talking to you in your home, it'll cause issues… Not too much gameplay, but where it differs, and where it grew on me, is that you really can pick which suspect to accuse and get it both wrong and right, as well as how to approach certain conversations, and that does change the game. Yeah, I’d recommend it.

Why copy Blackwell?. There’s already a point-and-click mystery series featuring a ghost sidekick. I’m going to continue playing since the Metacritic reviews are so favorable, but for now I’m perplexed at what seems a direct rip-off but with less compelling main characters.

I genuinely liked it. I definitely got stuck a few times and it was frustrating when I messed up one small thing and couldn’t finish the case her and there but the storyline was genuinely good. I wish this was a show ngl because the characters are well developed imo. If you like crime/detective narratives then I definitely recommend. (Definitely requires a solid amount of observation to get a good ending)

So slow... I love detective games, but this one was just too slow for me. I really tried to like it (since I paid $5 on it)... but the settings and characters are so plain and boring.

Glitch in game. I loved this game until the last part (5) where it wouldn’t let me access the fire to translate the piece of paper. So frustrating! Tried restarting but still didn’t work.

Great point and click mystery. Love it! Lots of objects/rooms to explore, witty dialogue, interesting mystery. This is my favorite type of game, but unfortunately I haven’t come across too many games like it in the App Store. I recommend this to anyone that likes story-driven adventure games without complicated puzzles to solve. Also there are days worth of gameplay, which I appreciated :)

Tedious & long winded. The atmosphere and setting are great…unfortunately the game consists simply of long winded conversations that have little bearing on the plot. There really is not any problem solving, just moving from irrelevant conversation to irrelevant conversation. Only about 20% of the dislogue is useful and of that, only about another 20% is interesting. Unfortunate as I’m a big fan of other games by the makers and folks involved in producing it. Was hoping for a steam punk Gabriel Knight…unfortunately got little more than a meandering script for a bad WB pilot…

Fun Retro Game. I really enjoyed this game. I didn't get a few of the puzzles, but overall it was a fun immersive game. I miss games like this.

A bit different from other point & click adventure.. The majority of the player input in this game is in choosing dialog options. You do pick up and use items, but you don’t really have a traditional inventory menu, or choose which items to use and when. For example, you may find a locked door, and later find the key, but to use the key you’ll just click the door again after getting the key. There aren’t many puzzles to solve, so it’s mostly dialog, and finding the clues to lead you to the right suspect. It is possible to accuse the wrong person and have them arrested, but with enough investigation it becomes clear who the right suspect is. The story was okay, but the gameplay left me feeling more like I had watched it than played it.

Missed the mark. I appreciate what they are trying to do, but I think this game misses its mark and gets bogged down in tedium. I love old style point and click adventure games, but this one has WAAAAY too much dialogue, and WAAAAY too many pointless hotspots that lead to more pointless dialogue. I also wish there was more of an inventory element. I had to put it down after a little while.

Highly recommend. Amazing game. Excellent graphics. Reminiscent of the old Sierra games from the 90s PC. Easy to use UI.

Game breaking scripting error. Keep getting a “scripting error” when I try to proceed in the game during the early stages. Frustrating because I was really enjoying it up until then. Would not recommend purchasing this game until it gets updated.

Amazing Game. I was absolutely hooked from the beginning and for being so cheap, the game was much longer than I expected. If you’re into detective games I’d really recommend buying this one. I loved the storyline and suspense.

Exhausting, yet boring. I played this for maybe 30 minutes and found all of the social justice stuff to be exhausting. Perhaps that’s appealing to some, but many of us play games to escape reality. This game was just rapid fire, one talking point after another, rinse and repeat. Loved the other games by this developer but the preaching in this one was too painful to continue. Also, more importantly, it was really boring - just a bunch of talking. Deleted already and totally regret paying for it. Lastly, this one shouldn’t be listed as 12+. Many of the mature themes are wholly inappropriate for tweens/younger teens.

So glad I finally tried it!. I love point & click adventure games and I’d held off on this one because the reviews stated it was very much about going from scene to scene and talking to people/exhausting dialogues to crack cases. Although it was true in the sense you don’t have an inventory and it is mostly talking however it pulls you in quickly & you’re immersed in these cases that you are trying to solve. You have to do things correctly to solve the case as well so there is still some strategy involved. Loved it! Very well done & I thoroughly enjoyed the bonus content at the end too. Hopefully there’s more to come!
