All the intrigue I want, but none of the gameplay.

But I'm glad some people enjoy it

I've played Primordia and Resonance but not the Blackwell games. Man, hoping for a gaming drought where I can then get to work on my adventure game backlog XD

I thought the series was finally stating to really roll.

I can't wait to see how this series begins. (That's my way of saying I should probably get around to playing it.)

It's a decent series man, The first one is a little rough. Doesn't reinvent the wheel or have the greatest production values, but the characters and writing are pretty good. You can probably blast through them all in a few days.

I've seen them on sale as a package on Gog pretty often

They're very charming, interesting games. I had zero interest in them before acquiring them in an adventure game bundle from gog. Now, they're my favourite adventure games!

Naturally, I'm looking forward to the conclusion.

@video_game_king: I've played the first one and part of the second. The voice work isn't bad, but sometimes it does the adventure game thing of an obscure answer that's hidden behind doing all the things in an order you haven't yet and combining everything with everything else. Also the hint system breaks sometimes so know that you have to combine notes...with...things. Still a good game.

The Blackwell series are easily the best Wadjet Eye games and have been some of the best adventure games of the past decade. If you haven't played them just go do it what are you waiting for I said go.

I've owned this series for ages but never actually played it. I should probably get around to it at some point.

I love these games so much, and it sounds like this series is gonna end on a whopper! Also, I second the call to get Dave on Bombin' in the AM down the line.

Man, I didn't know that this was gonna be the last one. I really liked the Blackwell series.

Just looked it up. The first one came out a little over seven years ago.

Just finished Blackwell Deception. This is an excellent adventure series for anyone who doesn't know.

Not to stop Dave Gilbert from finishing this, but it would be nice to maybe see him on Bombin in the a.m. sometime.
