Customer Reviews

pleasantly surprised
Having read the reviews about this game I wasn't expecting much, but being a fan of lost i really wanted to play it and it may have been that I was preparing for the worst but I actually really enjoyed this game. True there wasn't much action but being more of a fan of point and click games this suited me just fine. I enjoyed the mix of puzzles and story telling. The graphics are really beautiful and the sound is brilliantly eerie. It would have been nice to have more involvement in the lost storyline which carries on around you but as described it is a new character with their own story which runs concurrently. There are some pretty cool elements for example the camp evolves as you play the game and the begining and end of the episodes and cutscenes are just like the tv series. Overall it is a pretty cool game

Lost: The Plot
Whoever decided this game was good enough for release is nuts. As a fan of video games and the Lost series, I was severely disappointed. The TV show builds suspense, develops the characters well and has re-play value. The game has none of this. The puzzles are way too simple, the character interaction is painfully dull, and the photography sub-scenes are just weird. Also, the plots from all the different seasons (1, 2 and 3 so far) seem to overlap in the game which is confusing and makes it all seem rushed. If you are a Gamerscore fanatic then rent this one and watch the points roll in, it seems that every time you finish a level or reach a checkpoint they just throw you some gamerpoints. There is no challenge to this game and it would be much more worthwhile to just sit down and watch the series.

Only really for Lost fans
I would only recommend this game for fans of the show, otherwise its a short and unenjoyable game. Gameplay is very short lived, but graphics are good and so is the sound, however character voices are not of those from the real actors themselves! Fans of the show can explore all the Dharma stations from the show and re-live some of the moments from the season (it cover upto to the end of season 2). Must-play for real lost fans, only rent if ur not really in to show and also probably the easiest game to get 1000 gamerscore on, i did it in a day!!
