We can’t help but describe The Curse of Bone Town as a mixed bag. On one hand, it’s a very polished game. It looks great and sounds good, and the gameplay mechanics are easily accessible to anyone. On the other hand, the obtuse puzzle design and story issues drag down the experience. Add to this that the game is too short for its price point, and you’re looking at a title that’s outclassed by its competition in the genre in pretty much every aspect. If you can pick this one up with a 50% discount (or higher), it might be worth a look, but it’s difficult to fully recommend it.

While some innovation may have given people more reason to grab this over older classics, those looking for a classic adventure experience should look no further.
- 8.0Having never heard of Willy Morgan prior to my editor sending it my way, I found myself having a lot of fun with the game. It’s a solid entry in the point-and-click adventure genre. My only points of contention would be the voice acting and that the game is comparatively short.
