Reviews

“It is without a doubt that New York Mysteries: The Lantern of Souls has a fantastic storyline; it has just the right amount of action and the perfect amount of suspense to keep you intrigued for the whole duration of the game. Moreover, the lead character in this game, Laura James, is very likable. Her inquisitive personality and intelligence really shine through in the game, it is not so often that we get to play a detective HOPA with a smart protagonist.”
