John Saul’s Blackstone Chronicles

From the Database of Home of the Underdogs

GAME DESIGNER:Bob Bates
GAME DEVELOPER:Legend Entertainment
GAME PUBLISHER:Mindscape

The latest Legend offering is a disappointingly short and easy adventure that is an anticlimax to the company’s stellar career. Thanks to best-selling author John Saul, Blackstone Chronicles succeeds as a gripping psychological short story– you must find your son while coming to terms with your dark past. However, it fails as a game because it is simply too short and the puzzles too easy and uninteresting (most of which involve using various every-day objects to gain access to more rooms in the mansion). Recommended for beginners and die-hard John Saul or Legend fans only.
