BIG SPOILERS!!

What the hell?! I don't understand how she's alive and why I'm back on the island. If it's a timeloop how is that possible? Elliot escaped then saw the plane crash overhead. How did he get back on the beach?

I thought it was a multiple reality like in that old tv show sliders

Hello Guys Its me again! I am really stuck at one particular point at this game, Its really starting to annoy the crap out of me, Dont know whether its a bug in the game or what, Or whether I am just being a bit dim as everyone else seems to be getting through it with ease.

Anyways I have tried everything, even started the level again 4 times in the hope if it was a bug then it would sort it out but nothing

If I dont get this soon I am likely to smash the game to bits, If anyone who has finished the game has a little time please PM me and I will let know where I am, Dont wanna post here and spoil for everyone else. It would be great if someone could shed some light on what I have actually to do. Hopefully I am dim and Its something really simple!

There is a complete walkthrough on youtube (split into chapters etc), if that doesn't help or you don't want to look drop me a PM.

Cheers for that mr holliss, I feel well dim now, Found the vid and now know what to do, without it I would never have figured it out!

Ok - so this game is pretty dreadful - played all the way through and got plenty of acheevies (always good)

- gfx poor
- lots of invisible walls
- the trade system is awful
- fuse puzzles are annoying as heck
- forest sections are very annoying too as you have to watch the black smoke cut-scene all the time
- the game doesn't direct you to when you have to talk to characters - I ended up walking around for ages on a section, only to realise that I needed to just talk to someone again
- it force feeds you typical cliche moments from the film (very token like experiences)
- voice acting horrific, and my guy keeps having a fit when he talks
- etc

All in all, terrible - although given last night's episode of Lost (some Desmond story) - it does appear that the creators may have had inside knowledge of the show - or it could be coincidence.

You forgot to mention the dark cave bits, they would have been pretty near the top of my list of negatives

Finally I just got this finished, After getting stuck for a while on mission 4, I managed to find the rest of the game relatively easier to do.

I finished with 900/1000 points which I find more than adequate enough for this game, and I wont feel the need to be playing it through again to get the rest of the achievements

I'm sure it was written by the Lost Writers, Carlton / Lindelof etc. so it is no coincidence it times well with the current series.

Just did mission four with those fuse panels - is there a specific method to these or what. The first one in the game said 25v/30 something v on the panel so i knew how much to send to each circuit. The three I just did after like an hour of confusion I just kept moving things about till it works - not sure what i'm actually meant to be summing up ?

Just finished.

True, this game is poorish, but with it being LOST, I enjoyed it greatly.

It will offer nothing to non Lost fans, but for fans, it's great I thought.

Graphics were good 'in game' but very poor in cutscenes.

Enjoyed the story and the WTF at the end. Typical Lost.

Liked the running sections, but there was a need for more variation in gameplay.

Still, enjoyed it...so I'm happy.

I've only had time to play through Chapter 1 so far, but I'm actually really quite impressed. As a game, the flaws are obvious, but as an interactive LOST experience, the care and attention to detail is quietly captivating. I think in some ways it's quite a nice idea - rather than do a Lost-themed spin-off in a certain genre or shoehorn the concept into an established template, go for something slightly different, a playable episode. That they insisted on dropping 'Via Domus' from the box and running with 'The Video Game' is misleading. The concept seems like a more successful interpretation of the term 'interactive movie' than anything else, and in some ways, that's arguably the best thing for LOST fans. Shame they couldn't have put more episodes in, mind.

Why should I post my comments when they've already been done for me? TOP POST.

Big bump!

Just finished this after borrowing it off my cousin. I actually quite enjoyed it as a big fan of Lost but I thought it was a poor "game". As others have said the dark sections and the fuse puzzles were immensely frustrating. Don't even get me started on the section where you have to carry the dynamite with people shooting at you and the Black Smoke chasing you...

BUT as a companion to the series it really wasn't too bad - it only took me about 5 hours to get through and I enjoyed the story mostly and the way it linked in with the series.

As a game I'd give it maybe 3/10, if I was recommending to a fan of Lost who's also a gamer I'd probably give it 7/10. I'm glad I didn't buy it though.
