The Last Door Chapter 4

'Ancient Shadows' is 4th and the last chapter of the first season about Jeremiah Devit who once again enters new low-res horror adventure. Hopefully this wont turn into a soapie.

So, what do I need to do to win this one?

Your goal is to find 'the door' which is a passage through the Veil so that you and Alexander could 'walk again beyond the mist'. Mysterious enough? Just like the game graphics itself, the storyline is in low resolution, giving you a little to start with. But that's the best part about this game: constant apprehension, exploring the unknown, solving weird and mysterious puzzles, low visibility and lots of dark and creepy places barely lit by the candle that you grasp.

About pixel art and the author

Just to make it clear for those who slept over previous episodes: this is point and click game, so don't expect much of an action. You basically just go around and collect things by picking them up with mouse, placing them into inventory, so you could use them later on to solve some puzzle. By exploring and solving puzzles, you get to the solution, almost as in escape games. This relatively new trend is called 'pixel art' and this game is just one from many: (Last Door Teaser, Deep Sleep & Deeper Sleep, Don't Escape ... ) To be truthful most of them are made by a single guy who calls himself scriptwelder who works for and owns 'The Game Kitchen' studio.

To walkthrough or not?

As I already mentioned, the game does not reveal much, so you can easily get stuck. It's not time measured, so you have all the time in the world, but in same situations that won't do. Before you take a peek at the walkthrough video and than smack yourself on the forehead going like 'I knew that!', try to spend few more minutes and go figure it out yourself.
