What our customer's say!

"Great game, not worthy of a "Sequel"", Well if you read my 7th Guest review, you would know the story about when my sister got the game and how it was cool but scary. Well a year or two later (dont remember when THIS game came out), my sister picked up this game since she loved the original game "7th Guest". Well since I was scared of 7th Guest when I was little I was thinking "Great another game that's going to make me crap myself" (I was around 6-7 at the time when this game came out). Well I saw her play it and it's not a freaky and it's not as cool. My sis let me borrow it and the patch over the summer and I beat it, here's the review.

Story: Well the story for 7th Guest was about how 6 guests went into Henry Stauf's mansion and never came out. Well this one isn't as cool. You play as Carl Denning who one day receives this "gamebook" and finds out his girlfriend who is a reporter has been locked into the Stauf Mansion. So you go in there and figure out what's going on. (7/10)

Gameplay: Exactly the same as 7th Guest, go around solve puzzles, except there's one or two twists. You also have to go around and solve these riddles which are EXTREMELY hard and don't make sense. Also I'd like to add that this game is harder than 7th Guest, this game makes 7th Guest look like a Mathblaster game, no offense. (8/10)

Sound: Well the music is somewhat the same as 7th Guest, they have an eerie feeling and they freak you out. Some have upbeat tempos and some are just freaky. Some of the music is the same so you have to give props to that. Again the music sets the scene. (10/10)

Graphics: This is my favorite part of the review for this game...the Graphics. The thing I really like about this game is that it's the same graphics, nothing has changed. The really cool thing about this game is that your in the same EXACT mansion, everything looks the same except older. The only thing I didn't like about this game compared to 7th Guest was that the real actors in this game weren't actually in the mansion when shown like 7th Guest, it shows them as in a movie where they are in a real place and not a cartoony mansion. But a couple times they are like at the end of the game. (9/10)

Outro: This game is cool and anyone who loved the 7th Guest should get this game. It's definately not as cool as 7th Guest but it's still worthy of a play. My sister let me borror with the patch a while ago and i'm probably going to buy it sometime soon so I can beat it again. I would say pick this game up if it's $20 or less new or used, you might also want to buy a strategy guide for this one cause it's harder but that's up to you, I personally had no problem. I would also like to add that this game isn't as freaky as 7th Guest but still fun to play.

"Too Convoluted", I greatly enjoyed the 7th Guest. Its sequel, The 11th Hour, is not bad, but it's not very good either. On the plus side, the graphics and the music are just as creepy and cool. On the minus side, the plot is just too stupid, and the extra puzzle elements make the game too convoluted. In the 7th guest, the plot (although not the greatest) was creepy and entertaining, and held the game together. In the 11th hour, there are some elements that are so unbelievable even horror, mystery and intrigue can't account for them (example: somebody gets raped by a house: THAT'S JUST DUMB).
The actual gameplay is also unecessarily convoluted. In the 7th Guest, you solved the puzzles to open more doors, where you could solve more, and open more, until you've been able to solve the puzzle that will take you to the end of the game. The plot elements emerged around the house as a natural part of this process. In the 11th Hour, there are actually two different goals: you have to play the word-clue puzzles to unravel the plot, but you have to play Stauf's puzzles in the House to open doors and get to where you need to go. Perhaps this was an attempt to make sure the plot was revealed "sequentially." In any case, it makes the game less enjoyable, with the word-clues seeming kind of like nagging errands which distract you from the meat of the game.
Final verdict? Play it if you have the chance to borrow it from af friend, or if you have a buddy you can play it with. But don't pay money for it.

"Heres how to get the 11th hour to run on any PC!", Ok, Trilobyte was the most forward thinking software company in '92. Just look at The 7th guest! Origin was another excellent company with Wing Commander! My point is, todays game makers lack creativity and talent. How many games are based on the same tired software engines like quake and unreal? TOO MANY!
So, if your really looking to play this excellent game, heres how.....

1. Get a copy of DOS 6.22 format your hard drive and load it up on your PC. "I did not test it to see if this works with the version of Dos that came with 95 or 98 yet."

2. Search the net for three files...
11h242.zip
11hwin.zip
s3vbe318.zip
3. Install The 11th hour and a directory called c:\games\11h
will be created. On a PC with Winzip, unzip all three files to a floppy and take it over to the DOS machine and copy all the files into the c:\games\11h directory.
4. Run the command "s3vbe20 /install" and it will load a generic vesa driver into memory.
5. Run "v32.exe" in the same directory, and ENJOY!!

Now if you'll excuse me, Shauff is taunting me to play a little game!!

"the 11th hour", I could not play it as it did not want to be downloaded on either a 98 windows or an ME windows so beware as you could be out of pocket money and not be able to use it. the saving grace I didn't pay much for it.

"Not as good as the original", Let me start off by saying that the 7th Guest was a great game. Anyone who likes puzzle games should play it. The sequel, on the other hand is kind of fun but has some really annoying features. Most involving the "cryptic clues" you have to solve in order to find a certain object in the house. Still, if you can get past that there's some fun to be had.
