Blackwell 1: Legacy

I have loved the game so far, however I have encountered a bug that keeps me from progressing. In Kelly's dorm room, I have tried using the phone and inquiring about a distraction. Nothing happened and now when I try to use the phone again it just cycles between the beginning and end of the phone conversation, no options are presented. I would greatly appreciate some help or an update so I can get the notebook and move on.

Bought the bundle after seeing rave reviews. Not impressed by gameplay. Finished each in about 2-3 hours and the both felt like hours of clicking around with little sense of purpose or excitement. The game almost feels like a job you don't get paid for and the characters are gruff and unlikeable. Many things don't seem very intuitive, I find myself just mindlessly combining notes and clues after each point of progress until I unlock the next point of progress. Feel like I have to slog through the remaining games in the bundle just to get my money's worth. Can't wait to get it over with and free the memory back up on my device for something else.

I knew this game felt familiar. It's exactly like one of their other games I didn't care for, Shiva. Oy. The game plays by itself. It doesn't need you. So much dialog and virtually no play time, unless you think playtime is being instructed of your next clue or location to go to and going there only to be in another pointless dialog for 20 minutes. There is nothing fun here. It's not cutesy, it's not interesting, the female doesn't speak in a way of normal speech flows. You're pointing, you're clicking, you're being led to each next screen and just doing what you're told. Not quite an adventure game. From my perspective it's Shiva in another form and someone will need to sit Shiva for me after this game is over.

It took me probably longer then it should have to get the flow of this game. Having said that, I really enjoyed it. The graphics, I know are supposed to be a nod to games past. I didn't love that, but it didn't keep me from enjoying the hell out of it. I would LOVE to be able to turn the music down and/or off.

In reply to Alysstar132’s problem: at first I thought that was a bug, but it actually is not. **MILD SPOILERS** What you need to do is go to Rosa’s apartment, talk to Joey, and select ‘ghostly powers.’ Joey will blow on the curtains to show his one ghostly power. Then return to Kelly’s room and use the phone. Click on Joey while Rosa is using the phone. You will be able to progress from there.
