Missing on Lost Island (Windows)
A modern adventure with an aftertaste of the classics
The Good
I enjoyed this adventure mostly because it felt like a classic point-and-click adventure game. The game worked very good and the story is not bad, and although I dislike stories that try to combine modern time characters with unexplained mystics, this game did not leave me disappointed. Good fun too. Also the makers helped by using the active cursor that changed depending on the object it was over, which helps to go through the game.
The Bad
The music track was a bit annoying but the major drawback of this game is the possibility to progress through the game in different ways. I think it does not really come as a multiple ending game since the ending depends on choices the player makes at the very end of the game, but nevertheless there are several occasions during the game where the story may go different ways. Later on the two story line connect thou. But still the player misses some action.
The Bottom Line
Tim is teleported to a mysterious island where he tries to find his girlfriend Diana. Turns out he must get of this island and try to find a secret pirate island where he meets mysterious alien creatures (not green men). Good fun and story with a feel of classic adventure. I suggest you try it if you liked the classic adventures.
