Barrow Hill: Curse of the Ancient Circle

Great suspense, but the graphics could use some updating

User Rating: 6.7 | Barrow Hill: Curse of the Ancient Circle PC

The game is full of suspense and mystery (heavy on the mystery). For a 2006 game the graphics could defiantly use some updating. The control of walking through the areas by using your pointer to click is irritating. The controls are similar to CSI games. The story defiantly creeps you out, but I’ve seen scarier. It is intriguing and it does make up for the games faults. Sounds are effects great and creepy, but the music gets in the way. All and all, it is a good game but will not be one of the ones you can play again and again.
