"Lost: Via Domus" (game review)

This game is just for gamers who like the TV series. Although the first impression when you run the game is great, thanks to the good engine and the realistic models, the developers seem to have forgotten that what makes a game good is its playability and, in this one, it's quite limited.

You have a beautiful scenery to walk through, some people to talk to, some repetitive puzzles based on electrical circuits, and some boring and, again, repetitive action scenes, being the worst ones those where you have to run and hide from the black smoke. I really hated the smoke levels, I found them boring and totally unnecessary.

The only reason I enjoyed playing this game is I like Lost. Walking through the island, visiting some key settings of the series and talking to the main characters was fun. The story is simple, but it serves as an excuse to visit the island.

Anyways, as I first said, only for fans.
