Dark Romance: Hunchback of Notre-Dame [Collector's Edition]

An unnecessary magic-infused remix of the Victor Hugo's classic novel. It seems that someone wanted to write an original story but also wanted the game to include a well-known name. The result is almost offensively trite.

Despite this awful premise, the game is quite playable. The animations are good and vibrant and there's enough interesting gameplay content, with clever variations on the familiar hidden-object scene format.

That said, everything in the game is very, very easy, even when played on the highest difficulty. Expect to use your brain very little. Which is probably a good idea, anyway, because you don't want it to forever ruin your memory of the story of the Hunchback of Notre-Dame.

Note also that in-game achievements do not synchronize with Steam.
