Cant wait to fire up the quest 3 version now.

An 11th hour follow-up would be amazing, that was my preferred game of the two back in the day. I'm not sure today's audiences would handle those puzzles, though... particularly the cryptograms and other complex wordplay of the later clues.

It would be great if they could improve the 11th Hour story. Give it some more depth.

Also, if they could change the "Let's Make a Deal" ending. That would be great.

You also have the whole thing with the house raping two women.

The 11th Hour is more of a squicky game. It is very much B movie horror.

Also, the house is in a different location. I wish they kept it on the cliff.

I like how they got it on an island in the remake.

The 11th Hour is more of a squicky game. It is very much B movie horror.

I've never cared about the story of either game, it doesn't do anything for me except as atmosphere.

But 11th Hour had the searching puzzles that I enjoyed so much, my favorite part from either game. It's not cheap hidden object hunting like in shovelware games of course, but used complex wordplay, riddles, crytographs, etc. It was great fun and actually made it more important to observe all the details of the rooms. In contrast, the scenery in 7th Guest was unimportant, so it feels empty to me in retrospect.

 

[Krathoon]

That is the great thing about the remake. They make the scenery more relevant. Each of the rooms are tailored to the guests.

You get more characterization.

Also, the puzzles are linked together in the rooms.

Have requested a Steam refund. Will stick to the Quest 3 version. Really enjoying this game so far. It's a fantastic VR chilled experience.

 

[Krathoon]

The game is really well designed. They totally improved on the original.

It is different enough from the original that you can still play both.

This game definitely makes me feel stupid from time to time but it's very rewarding solving those puzzles.
I think this would be a perfect game for someone new to VR. It's very relaxing and super comfortable. I really do need to find a large space somewhere so that I can walk around a full room without using locomotion. That would be very cool.
