Just Adventure's Alexander Tait reveals his rather rave review for WRF Studios' adventure-thriller, the Last Half of Darkness: Shadows of the Servants - Alexander gives Shadows an outstanding, overall grading of "A"...

There is a high fun factor in this game. The puzzles are on the easy side and reward keen observation and persistence. There are few puzzles of the “click and hope for the best” variety. This is probably the single most rewarding aspect of the game. There is a sense of achievement when completing a puzzle. You may be scratching your head for a little while, but near all of the puzzles ought to be solvable by most players. Experienced gamers may find them a little easy but may find some worthwhile exploration as some of the puzzles are truly unique such as some DNA puzzles.

Game design is simple point and click. Experienced and neophyte gamers alike will find the controls intuitive and the game interface easily accessible. Inventory items have descriptions, so no need to try to guess what the items are. Menus are excellent-easy to read and self-explanatory.

I’m not going to give away the plot of the actual game but it leads to a crescendo that is frightening and rewarding. My only disappointment was that the conclusion seemed to come crashing down all of a sudden and then is left hanging. At the end of the game, you are able to wander through the game locations again but I was left wondering whether I’d missed something or whether what I’d seen wasn’t the end at all
