Haunted Hotel: Lost Time

Keeps freezing at the footprint puzzle. Wasted money on this game for it to not work properly. I have purchased several games and this will be my last one if this is cannot be resolved

I should have heeded the reviews on this one, usually a big fan of their games, never had an issue before. I had the same Rogers locker issue that apparently a number of people have been having. Ok, deep breath. I’ll play through again and hopefully will get past it the second time. But I couldn’t even get there. This time, I got to the Study, tried to put the blind pull on the blinds, and absolutely couldn’t. It was the only move I could make to go forward, it’s what the hint kept telling me to do, but it wouldn’t work. I’m not willing to play through a 3rd time to try to get past the issues.

Nothing to do. No hint to help. At locker where it spells ROGERS. Clearly you need to press the buttons below in the correct order. I used my HINT to prove I was starting on the correct “R”.,,.... yet I can’t get past it. Very unfortunate - as I was enjoying the game otherwise. I will take my $$ back now.

Just got the game, ran into the rogers bug. Checked if there was an update, doesn’t appear to be one. Unfortunate, since it was a good game until you can’t progress any more.

UPDATE August 18th Out today! Welcome back, Mad Head! Nevertales 8: The Abomination has been released. Remember to show some love to this wonderful and quirky developer! It’s been a long wait! Released today (7/24): Friendly Fox surprised me this morning with Bridge to Another World: Glass! It’s 1.2 gigs and should be fabulous. I wanted to give those of you who are extremely depressed over the pandemic some welcome news! Time for Elephant trivia, especially for newer gamers. The series Mystery Trackers features Agent Brown, a crime fighter with a sidekick named Elf. In Grim Tales we play as time traveling Detective Anna Gray, along with her talking skull. Finally, in Haunted Hotel, Detective James Blackthorn always investigates crime when he should be enjoying a vacation. Put these three investigators together, and it gives you another series: Detectives United! On to the game. The latest installment in the series was very haunting, and reminiscent of an old film, Lost Horizons. Whoever tried to leave the island of Shangri-la aged rapidly and died. I won’t ruin the ending of the game but this one left me a both happy and sad at the same time, because in addition to the horror genre the storyline was a tragic tale of romance derailed. This game was terrific. It was a bit longer and I didn’t feel cheated out of $6.99 for a change. The HO scenes had variety, but they weren’t very unusual or novel. I enjoyed the selection of puzzles and games. As per Elephant, there was definitely a puzzle to suit every player. Of course we saw a ton of tasks at each location and plenty of collectibles. The map functioned perfectly, for a nice change. However I did encounter some touchscreen sensitivity issues. Sometimes it was difficult to manipulate certain puzzles and apply inventory. Other than that I didn’t face any other hurdles. My true rating will be 4.5 stars, and the deduction was for the technical issues. I loved the storyline and the Victorian graphics, and it was a great game. Play and enjoy. Update: we will hopefully see the release of Dark Romance: Ashville this week (week of 7/27). It was delayed on the App Store due to technical problems. Naturally!😡

Some tasks get stuck and if you wait long enough eventually you can complete it. However, currently stuck in the pool room trying to enter the ROGERS code on the push buttons and absolutely will not solve. Have waited days, have restarted, and this task will not work. I already paid for this game so this is exceptionally frustrating that i cannot continue on.

Unable to open Rogers locker; also it took some time to pick up a ring from fireplace.

Sadly, couldn’t finish the game because a bug or glitch that doesn’t allow the “Rogers” locker to complete. All spellings tested, nothing works. Found other users with this issue online. Wish I hadn’t paid for this game.

Main game was really short. Bonus game where you had to use a skull key on a skull failed because even using the hint, which clearly indicated where the key was to be used did not allow the key to be taken from inventory and placed in the keyhole of the skull. All in all, not a very satisfying game and not what I am used to seeing from Eleohant.

Had no issues played straight through the game and bonus game. A bit short but loved the collectibles, puzzles and loaded scenery. Love it keep them coming.
