• "I fostered a lifelong love for the adventure genre, culminating in a Purple Tentacle tattoo (Day of the Tentacle, duh) on my upper left arm. So I’ll be playing Lamplight City, too. Trust." - Rock, Paper, Shotgun
• "Overall, this game has a lot going for it, and I encourage you to check it out even if you’re not an adventure game buff." - Hey Poor Player
ABOUT THE GAME
The Gateway to Vespuccia, the City of Air and Light, Lamplight City - the thriving port city of New Bretagne is a beacon of progress and industrial advancement in the New World. Yet beneath the promises of a shining 19th-century future, the city rests upon foundations of poverty, class struggle, and crime.
For police detective turned private investigator Miles Fordham, Lamplight City's shadowy corners are just part of the territory. But with his former partner constantly speaking to him from beyond the grave, his grip on sanity is slowly loosening. Can Miles find justice for his clients and track down his partner's killer before his entire world comes apart?
Lamplight City is a detective adventure set in an alternate steampunk-ish "Victorian" past.
FEATURES
• Be the detective you want to be. But prepare to face the consequences.
Investigate crime scenes, interrogate suspects, get information by any means necessary. Follow the law or make your own rules, but how you choose to act will affect people's attitudes towards you.
• Five cases to solve, with multiple suspects, false leads, and different outcomes.
Never find yourself stuck in a dead-end situation. If the case becomes unsolvable, simply move on to the next one. The story will adapt based on your choices.
• Single click interface with no inventory.
Gather clues and documents in your casebook for review. Item manipulation is handled via a context-sensitive cursor.
• A fictional city with four boroughs to explore, each with their own unique flavor.
Players will visit each of these boroughs throughout the game, exploring themes such as class divide and the public's fear of emerging steam tech.
• Inspired by the works of Edgar Allan Poe and Charles Dickens.
• Meet over 50 professionally voiced characters.
• Original score by Mark Benis.

Bewertungen und Rezensionen
Hoped for better.
Click-click-click-click-click. And all that clicking lead to nowhere. Every person involved a very lengthly conversation and I got very bored with having to deal with it. And every thing everywhere I clicked gave me the magnifying glass yet had nothing to do with solving anything. I got tired of just pointing and clicking on absolutely everything with no progress in the game. This game could be so much better if you didn't have to spend sooooo long on meaningless conversations and clicking on things that don't matter. I'm going to finish it, but I'll be speed clicking through all conversations.
Don't be put off by previous reviews! Great game and works as advertised.
Sadly, some games get ignore because a reviewer provides a review without understanding the game. If you seek a violent, confrontational action game, go elsewhere. This game is one of investigation, learning what happened, and making deductions.
The characteres are well done and their voices etc are excellent too. The presentation is artistic and well appointed.
If you're into solving mysteries, if you like investigations, if you enjoy great charcateres, buy this game and ignore the negativity!
Don't waste your money
Superold graphic, superboring, characters only talk
