34 of 34 · most liked firstRarely can a book or a game leave a mark on your soul and help you realise something new... To be honest, I am not familiar with the original book of the French writer Gaston Leroux. But I hope that one day I will read this legendary book. In the meantime, I am writing a review based on what I know about this interesting story. I've loved the music of Andrew Lloyd Webber and the 2004 film adaptation since I was a kid. I fell in love with a romantic story about a love triangle between a…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bad. Bad. Completely disregards the themes of the original novel and does a bad job of it. Compassion is a strength, not a weakness, but this game would convince you otherwise. Just read the book--it'll take you less time and be more enjoyable too.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game itself is not bad, a few glitches here and there, subpar dialogue, and a few typos.. Game play is rather minimal and way too easy. My biggest gripe as a extremely fond Phantom fan is the portrayal of Erik in this version. The developers turned him into a caricature of himself. Too over the top... And that's coming from a reader of the original novel where Erik is quite over the top. As a visual novel it failed to capture the nuance of Erik as well as the the profound, but ambiguous…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →"Masquerade! Paper faces on parade!" A story-oriented adventure that captures the essence of the original through gaming. If you're feeling too lazy to read the original or if you're looking to have more fun, this might be a suitable option.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →TLDR: This take on the 1910 novel of Phantom of the Opera gave me a ride that kept me coming back for more even if I did know the order of events. With a soundtrack that compliments the story progression this is by far one of the best visual novels I have played this year. Highly Recommend, I will keep an eye out for future projects from this team. Growing up and in the later years of my public education I was incredibly enthralled with the world that was the Phantom of the Opera that I got…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While there may not be any voice acting, the atmosphere and overall creepiness will make you think there is someone whispering sweet nothings into your ears. Love how the cute art style is distorted to give you a sense of uneasiness. For my First Impressions of MAZM: The Phantom of the Opera check out my video here: https://youtu.be/5gnOJeuq0G0
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Point & click VN + beautiful graphics and music + atmospheric = Adventure through the story and look for clues to progress. Interact with other characters and learn about the scene. Wonderfully made. [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/35180752-3-point-play/] Follow our curator for similar games
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I am a shameless Phangirl and Erik!Simp, and I've noticed several other Phans have given this game negative reviews, but I will actually defend this game as a worthy addition to different interpretationsf of Gaston Leroux's classic novel. I have read the original novel in two different translations, and have a third on my shelf I've been meaning to read. I have seen the Musical!Movie and have a DVD of the Royal Theater adaption. I have read many Phantom retellings and many are unique takes.…

unlabelledView post →On one hand, it is very gorgeous. The character portraits are beautiful, the scenes are well designed, and the interface is pretty. The Phantom himself is frankly the best Leroux designed Phantom I'd ever seen outside of Lon Chaney's. The face is 11/10. Even the incidental characters (little Jammes for instance) are nice to look at. On the other hand, the mobile phone interface that the game originally ran with is a big hindrance on the computer. I really do not want to click and wait on the…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is way too underrated... First of all, forget about the movies, the game uses the original Book as for it's base, (with some extras ofc but it's not that influential) and i must say it did an amazing job! So well made, amazing details, and hooollysheep. It's so beautiful. The game keeps it simple. Click to move, objects and mini games are easy, yet entertaining. Conversations are useful, and funny. Characters are well made, the music on point (I mean, i really would suggest to put…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As a very long-time Phantom fan: I will say the art is magnificent, but it cannot save the horrible narrative design. Completely misses the point of the story it seeks to adapt; if this was a creative choice, it falls utterly flat as there is no character arc or development given to its titular character, no redemption or dimension. This is made even more aggravating given the seemingly random idiotic decisions/accusations regularly made by nearly every character and total lack of chemistry.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I never read or watched Phantom of the Opera; I came from a position of total newcomer. I'll review this as a game first and foremost. While I generally recommend it - the story is heart-wrenching, tense, and interesting all the way through - the game adaptation is... bad. The graphics are amazing, the pictures are wonderful, and there are moments where the writing (as in character dialogue) suddenly becomes stellar. The further in the game, the more of those moments are. But otherwise? First…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →the artstyle is so cute!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Does a good job of the original story, some things added in. The artwork is great and the humor with sound effects is a nice touch. I wish they had background music for some of the scenes and the controls were the biggest complaint... I played with my PS4 controller and I could pick something up with X but then I would have to press the O button to "reset" it so it wouldn't pause the game. Also it takes a few seconds and freezes slightly whenever you're supposed to play a character.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Sketch with Daria and the Phantom of the Opera (designed from Mazm game). Nothing in particular, I wanted to draw them. It’s been a long time that I didn’t draw Erik.
unlabelledView post →What a wonderful game! The soundtrack, the characters, the good developed history by the original book, the care with details magnifies so much it and I 100% recommend it! I'm still currently playing (in the middle of it) but going to finish it very soon, it's worth each penny!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you're willing to invest some time into an otherwise actually well-written and generally fun F2P mobile game, check out MazM: Hyde & Seek. I made a review for the game here: youtu.be/pBQrqDP6gYE
unlabelledView post →Since it is the second game that I have played from this franchise (the first one was the Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde), I like this game as well, the characters, the overall story, once again the art style and the soundtrack is as awesome as ever. I have only two things that I wish there were on this game. A)I wish I could play as the Phantom of the Opera, sure you can play as the evil managers but it isnt the same. If we look on the previous game Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde you had the opportunity to play…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Reading the original Leroux novel is an annual tradition for me. If you're a fan of the story like I am you'll likely love this game. I started originally with the movie, then read the original novel, then Kay, and loved this game even more for the darker elements of the story. This game expanded upon that and gave some new twists and even made me think of the some of the characters and themes differently. If you're looking for a good story, I think the game is worth playing.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →//uhhhh. Well I mean technically he's just Hyde from MazM. this is his in-game art I guess..? YOU DONT HAVE TO THOUGH. I MEAN. IMMA LOVE IT IF YOU DO BUT YOU CAN CHOOSE NOT TO-- Oh and my bg3/DND OC. Knott Evill. He's blind. :)
unlabelledView post →Similar to the Jekyll and Hyde game in the sense of it being a good adaptation. Very fun to go through. I'm very much enjoying it. :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →为防止可能会喜欢这个游戏的朋友提前放弃，打个预防针：剧情一直到第二章末尾才稍有起色，新地图也在后期出现，前面比较枯燥，想体验完整的可以熬一熬。以下是评论正文：因为喜欢这个音乐剧，看中游戏的画风和音乐，所以关注了很久，一发布就买了。我可以忍受蹩脚的翻译、错别字、乱码，哪怕是如此低智且不合逻辑的人物设定与对白我都忍了，但我绝对不能接受这个重要角色的死亡，我希望他好好活下去，可我却没有这个选项。如果不是有着开局必须通关的强迫症毛病，我绝不会花费整整24小时在这样一款游戏上。
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →TL;DR: This is overall a highly enjoyable adaptation of the original novel by Gaston Leroux, although several narrative choices have been altered, changed or cut, some serve the story better, others not. Even with the negative, they do not contract from the overall enjoyable experience this is. --- I've been a fan of the story of Phantom of the Opera for many years now, first having listened to the musical on CD's back in my early teens, to reading the original novel (and various fanfictions)…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have amended my review from a bad to a good rating - not because the problem of the achievements being saved in game (and not resetting back to 0 when I exited and entered game again ) was fixed. It wasn't. But I managed to keep my computer on all day and ffwded all conversations in only the episodes where achievements were needed - so as to get all footnotes, character interactions, etc required to gain all achievements - thankfully the game did not crash this time. And i did get the 2…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm really good at running
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Took me way too many hours to complete than I anticipated. But since I was already knew accustomed to the story (through the musical, the book and a couple of films) I was bound to finish it. I won't deny I was bored at times and somehow disheartened to continue since these type of games (visual novels) are not always to my liking. But the artstyle is lovely, the little notes we pick up through the games are interesting and the effort is there. I also would have preferred if we had more…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Just writing this so you know- game runs decently on deck, the only issue is that you sometimes have to click directly on the screen. PS. I love the game despite it not being as book acurate. THE SOUNDTRACK IS GOD LVL I LOVE IT
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good story and design
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Excellent Story line! I am not usually a fan of text based games. However, I found the very intriguing and took me over two hours to finish the first book. I started the second one before calling it a night. A must buy!

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've always been a HUGE phantom of the Opera Fan. Having read the book, watched the movie and seen the musical. I was happy to play this game. It's far more faithful to the book adaptation than the movie version, which I liked.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is gorgeous, I love the story and I enjoy it. I hope I can see more of this games in the future because the design is nice and sweet. The characters are unique in their way and look amazing. I like the interactive part when you need to go in different sides of the game. I recommend the game for those who enjoy a good story with mistery, adventure and some love and for those who are tempted and don't have the courage, just try it, this game worth.
