A TV show adaptation that should have stayed lost.

What's Hot: Great environmental graphics and lighting effects
What's Not: Only a chunk of the real cast provides voices, and the ones that do sound bored to tears; Writing frequently clashes with the show's canon; Hardly any gameplay; You can beat it in an afternoon, and there's zero replay value
Crispy Gamer Says:
(Page 3 of 3)
With marginal gameplay and a lousy plot, Via Domus really offers very little to the "Lost" enthusiast. The whole point of a game like this is supposed to be to provide a unique, never-before-seen angle to an already sprawling storyline, but considering that the producers of the show have come out in interviews and said that this game isn't canon within the "Lost" universe, what's the point? If the people who make the show don't even care about this thing, why should you? Fortunately, that's one "Lost"-related mystery with an easy answer.
This review was based on a retail copy of the game provided by the publisher.
