Not a fan of the "morph" items.
I have to say MCF games are my favorite and I do own them all but I personally want the hidden objects instead of the items that morph. There's not a lot of challenge to looking for things that change in appearance. This is one of the MCF I will not purchase. Bring my H.O. back and I will buy in a heartbeat!

Seriously unpleasant experience and too complicated
Sorry Guys you've lost me on this one. It is a seriously unpleasant game - over complicated with impossible puzzles. Feels like a group of young men were given a large budget and left to give indulge their gross-out factor (I mean vacuuming babies out of pregnant women, c'mon on). Some of us play these games for relaxation and enjoyment. Weird need not mean gross, take Madam Fate as an example, that is a really great game. Get back to what you do best.

Huge Disappointment!
I love the MCF games, but Escape from Ravenhearst falls flat. I personally get excited in a game when I see an area that sparkles, because I know I'm going to get a useful object. It is so hard to know what to do in this game its ridiculous! A helpful hint button would have been nice. Even the strategy guide in the CE was useless. When a game becomes a chore, I quit.

Disappointed
I have been a huge MCF fan since the first game. Return to Ravenhearst amazing and fun, creative. Was so excited when I saw this game out, purchased immediately based on prior experience. Very disappointed in game play change.

Different & thought provoking!
For those thinking of trying the game, heed the warning that is given. It deals with a subject matter that may well make some uncomfortable. It's not a "guts & gore" type of thing, it's more of a psychological type of unsettling, but something that is all too real in life as well. That's what makes it even more unsettling.
I have all the MCF games & have been a huge fan for years. This one is a bit different, but I found it refreshing & intriguing. A LOT of thought & talent went into this game & it shows. The Morphing Objects is a change from a regular HOG, which I liked. Not sure I'd want all the games to go this way, but it was a nice change of pace.
The story line really has you feeling pulled both ways, for & against the main character.
The *only* thing I was a bit disappointed in was that some of the play/puzzles were a bit too hard for me. I had to rely on the walkthrough a few times only to realize I had skipped a section & didn't even know it.
So a bit more direction to keep us on track would have been very helpful. Overall this was an amazing game & I would recommend it to anyone who loves MCF & psychological mysteries. Not so much to kids or even teens.

One of the best games I've ever played
This game is brilliant. Granted, the plot is not for everyone (you WERE warned, it's scary and disquieting) but I found it to be engaging and most of all a lot of fun. I really like the morphing objects. Frankly, hidden objects were getting a bit old and this was a refreshing change. The graphics, music, acting, all top notch. I highly recommend this game.

Not as awful as Hannibal.... but....
Oh dear, oh dear, what happened to the Ravenhearst series ? I loved the first two so much ! Yes, this one is a thriller alright, but with several disturbing scenes that are borderline to being unhealthy.
You need to be a fan of horror movies, derelict hospitals, sinister morgues and 19th C asylums to really appreciate this third installment....I do not fall into this category.
Technically speaking, the game is brilliant. The intro and cutscenes are worthy of a professional movie, the voice-overs are flawless, the graphics perfect. This deserves 5 stars.
Unfortunately:
- I quit the demo after 31 mns due to the too many Morphing Objects Scenes I had to play. This is a new trend that consists in replacing the traditional HOS by one in which objects change shapes. I am not too keen on HO Scenes already, a MOS even less...in fact not at all.
- I did not have a single chance to try one of the puzzles, so I cannot bear a judgement on the challenge level, but knowing the other MCF games, I take it it is quite high.
- I feel frustrated because I will never get to play an adventure that could otherwise been a great experience had it been less shocking
Perfect technique is not sufficient to take my fun up to high levels, and excessive horror brings it down to nil.
And this deserves 1 star.
Recommended to only a minority of players. Not recommended to younger players, hypersensitive persons and those who are horrified.... by horror.
Note: Hannibal - the movie by Ridley Scott with Anthony Hopkins and Judie Foster

blurry object game
so far i am disliking this purportedly hidden object game, i keep stopping because it bores me the blurry object treatment is annoying when you thought it would be great like the first two ravenhurst games

Creepy, yet fun! Very good game indeed!
When I read the warnings on the Big Fish Games page, I thought that they weren't serious. The past games that I had purchased never gave me nightmares and this one didn't either. But, some of my dreams were related to the game and it was quite creepy! Only happened once before, even after many horror movies!
Definitely not for younger audiences, so beware of who plays it! I liked the difficulty of the game, while I did have to go to the online walkthrough at times.
For those who have played the other two Ravenhearst games, this is a must have! This game contains some explanations, but does leave some questions.
There are some videos of real-life actors in this game, which I wasn't sure of at first, but it really worked well in my opinion! Some of the gameplay for hidden objects might be criticized by some, but I sure did like the morphing objects better! Sometimes, for regular hidden object games, some of my family members had a difficult time since not all of the words were known to them.
So, all in all, my favorite game this year! :) Better than watching a scary detective movie and costs less for Big Fish members than an actual movie ticket! Enjoy!

has promise
This will be the first MCF game I didn't buy and enjoy. I have all the rest and loved them. Great fun!
I couldn't read the small red print on all the descriptions in the game.
Everything is so dark that I was constantly squinting.
I am very disappointed.
