The file size of Labyrinths of the World is unarguably huge, which is probably accounted for the game’s fantastic graphics. Well, most of the times the visuals are fantastic excluding some animations and cutscenes which can be slightly pixelated on a widescreen monitor. Nonetheless, during the gameplay; the sights are unbelievably beautiful, bold colors and amazing graphical depths. The soundtracks are well-composed and suit the environment of the game nicely. On the other hand, we are not very fond of the voice overs; they feel a little forced and the fact that the characters remain emotionless and do not lip sync can become a little frustrating.
Labyrinths of the World: Shattered Soul is similar to a countless number of other portals-travelling games; the game featured given four different portals with different themes, all of which are pretty mesmerizing to explore. Labyrinths of the World is not a very challenging game, nor does it require complete no brainwork. Many of the puzzles are simple and not the most innovative ones we have seen, but a few of them are fairly complicated. The hidden object scenes are very interactive and as expected, they can be switched with Jigsaw mode just like in other games from Domini.
We certainly do not think that Labyrinths of the World: Shattered Soul is the game of the year or anything since it does not feel really special. In spite of that, it has all the features you have ever wanted in a HOPA; a very cool interactive map, various magical powers, a detailed Dossier – probably except from the completely out-of-place Harlequin helper. The Collector’s Edition also includes gallery items, free search mode, achievements, collectibles and a Museum and a Bondoir to spend your collectibles at.
