Every single time I've gone back into this game to continue where I left off an error stating "your previous save file was corrupt. You will need to start over" comes up. Unless they fix this error I would not suggest purchasing this game. They really need to fix this bug as it's not fair to those who buy it to have to restart the game from the start everytime it's opened.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I must admit, I was very reluctant about buying this game. The screenshots from the store page and the negative comments have always put me off and every time there was a sale, I let the opportunity pass by. Turns out that I was wrong in doing so. This is a decent HOG, inclining towards quite a good game. It's not the greatest out there, but it exceeded by far my expectations. The story is set in a mental hospital called White Haven Mysteries. The main character wakes up in an abandoned…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There's only one save slot and "unfortunately your save file has been corrupted". It's a nice hidden objects / light puzzle game, but who cares if the save system is totally botched.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →White Haven Mysteries was the first HOG that I've played here on Steam, and also the first game that I've ever tried to review. Gosh, looking back to those couple of sentences that I scribbled and called as a review, I got embarrassed. I decided to run the game for a second time after a year - it's not that lengthy of a game anyhow - and write an appropriate review. I remember getting startled the first time that I've run the game, watching its eerie loading screen. I wondered if I've misread…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I couldn't finish the game as my "Save is corrupted", which apparenlty is a bug that was never patched. So unless you intend to play the game in one sitting, just forget it. Too bad, because it's really a good game otherwise...
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Impression: A HOG that excelled in atmospheric and the hidden object aspects but umimpressive in the puzzle and features department. Recommendation: Thumbs up. Buy on discount. The Good: Brilliant presentation of horror in a HOG, utilising atmospheric sounds and creepy animations very well Great voice-acting Extensive number of locations & hidden objects that are well-drawn Hidden objects were well-placed and give a decent challenge Game inventory use is largely intuitive and make…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Graphics are great! Story and ending horrible. Still trying to figure out what the hell I just accomplished after 3 hours. Also, not scary at all. Not even slightly.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a pretty decent HOG - if you run it in one sitting. If not, you're likely to encounter the "save game corrupted" bug. Can't recommend a buggy game, so.. No.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Hidden Object Mystery Story Don't be fooled, this game is really a hidden Object game. With some additional riddles, it has some nice artworks and a creepy story about... well Amnesia. You have to find out what has happened to you, a long time ago, and you have to face the ghosts of the protagonists past, or better said the echoes. Though the game is not the worst HOG there are some things about it that are in fact annoying. And no this game wasn't the CE... Furthermore it still has some…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →When you wake up, you're in White Haven. You don't know anything apart that a little girl needs you. However, this abandoned facility is creepy. And what's with antidote? In other words, White Haven Mysteries has everything for me to enjoy: dark plot, mysterious places and a constant question of why you? However, the game is giving away quickly the twist of the story... But still, it was exciting to know more. And unfortunately, well, I'm still confused about many elements. The gameplay is…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The third time I launched it. It told me the save was corrupted and it deleted my profile.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Decent game but make one go at it from begining to end or your going to lose your save. Not reccomending at this time due to this bug.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While I love these mediocre point/click games I have to say this was done pretty bad. The storyline was meh if you could even call it a storyline, I don't expect it to be best seller writers telling the story but I do expect it to at least interest me. The puzzles were completely nonsensical most of the time; never used hint as much as I have in this game in any others I have played, literally no way to even guess what they wanted you to accomplish bar spamming hint and trying out all your…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Spent an ungodly amount of time playing only to have the save corrupted. 0/10 do not recommend wasting time.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Put simply this was frankly one of the lesser Hidden Object games I've played The atmosphere was decent and interesting setup for a story though generic, gets let down by the short length and unsatisfying ending Puzzles can be quite simplistic at times though a few were kinda obtuse and the last stretch was clearly rushed and had nothing of interest I cannot really recommend unless you're bored and just wanna check it out out of curiosity but then again it would probably be better saving…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →a very nice short HOG with a decent story. pros. pretty nice story kinda creepy great voice acting decent fitting creepy music cons. very short a bit less than 1 hour 20 minutes. for the main story no bonus story i have found a spot where i could collect an item over and over without it being in my inventory overall despite being mega short and i'm actually shocked to have to recommend it. it was very fun playing it. only get it under a heavy discount tho as paying full price for a bit…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →pros + good looking graphics + creepy atmosphere + intriguing psychological and twisty narrative. + easy puzzles ( if you don't want to challenge) + good voice acting + hidden object elements are fun. + hint system very helpful + there is auto save + i didn't encounter any crushing and bug. game is run well for me. cons - game is too short - there are no steam achievements - game doesn't drop cards.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While I really enjoyed playing this game, it is a quick one. I did not experience the problem with the corrupted save file. I liked the sound effects, the graphics were fine. The only thing I am sitting here trying to figure out, is why I was searching for carousel pieces that I never used.....buy it on sale.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I ran into the same save file corruption bug that everyone else is talking about. A pity; if it were not for that I could give this game a mildly positive review. It's an okay HOG, and the creepy atmosphere is nicely done, but it's not good enough to justify restarting from the beginning.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →2016,,,still has corrupted files
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →White Haven Mysteries is a typical HOPA. It's mediocre in any sense possible. Why do I still recommend it? If you get it cheap enough - i.e., at a discount of at least 50% - you'll get yourself a fairly good deal if you like that kind of game. In detail: # It has the standard game modes: Quick hint recharge and sparkles OR slow hint recharge, no sparkles. # The graphics are good, but not amazing. The HO scenes are clear, and the objects are big enough to be spotted. # It's quite short. It…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you like hidden object games then you will like this. That been said it is rather short, story is average and as others have stated... not scary. Still if you like this type of game you will enjoy, overall looks nice and a good way to chill for a couple of hours. (My play time was about 3 hours but this was only due to having to go AFK for about an hour). I would recommed this game just try catch it on sale :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →"Unfortunately, the save file got corrupted. Start over, loser." ... Nah, I'm good. Would've been a 5/10 anyways.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It is a game which doesn't support Windows 10. I bought it and I was able to play it in a windowed mode but not able to see much.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I was enjoying the game and was reaching the end until I got a message saying my savegame was corrupted and I had to start over. No, thank you. When you look at the other reviews, you will see that a lot more people ran into the same problem.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Really, I quite liked the Game till it crashed and gave me a message about corruputed files and I had to began anew. I mean, thank you no. I wished I never bought that game even if I got a discount on it. The game itself is pretty good...but not playable. Fix it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There are very few nice "find the hidden object" games ... this is definitely one of them. I LOVED the story line. Loved the graphics and the puzzles are rather ... interesting. Definitely worth paying for. Definitely worth playing!!!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There are issues with this game. Difficult to interact with objects with multiple clicks. It seems to delete the save files too? What!?!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have just become a victim of the "corrupted file" problem. It seems like the game deverlopers should be able to fix this, considering so many people have had a problem with it. It was moderately entertaining until this heppened. Don't waste your money, no matter low low they discount it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I was a little baffled to see that this game had mixed reviews until I noticed some people mentioning an issue with the save file corrupting. However, I played it through in one sitting and if you're willing to or want to use this for a single-evening playthrough, as I did, it is absolutely worth it. The puzzles are simple enough to work through that it doesn't really require more than about 2-3 hours to finish (depending on your speed and whatnot). The game does an excellent job with…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A good little game, but like many others, my save game was corrupted and I lost my progress and had to start again, which is annoying! So please fix this, and untill then..........DON'T BOTHER BYING IT!!!!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →-Recommended Title- White Haven Mysteries is a Hidden Object (point and click), Adventure game. The story line is kept me interested throught the entire game. The visuals are appealing and of good quality. The sounds are good. . I found the discovery of objects and the challenge of puzzles engaging, and difficult enough for the game not to be a walk in the park. WHM can be completed in an evening, of solid gameplay. I cant say what the replayability value is, as I've only played the game…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →White Haven Mysteries is a hidden-object adventure game developed by Gogii Games and published by Strategy First. The game belongs to the Hidden Object Puzzle Adventure genre, a style of casual game design that combines environmental exploration, puzzle solving, and investigative storytelling. Built around a suspenseful narrative and eerie environments, the game invites players to unravel a disturbing mystery by carefully examining locations, collecting items, and solving a variety of puzzles.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I can't really recommend this game. It's average as far as puzzles/HOG scenes go and the audio is of terrible quality. In addition, the story is questionable to say the least if you're paying attention. It's decent, but not particularly good.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not fantastic, but it's different and interesting. I'd suggest you get it whilst on sale, since there are no achievements or cards. I usually never bother with games like that, but this game was worth it nontheless, in my opinion.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →game work fine on Win 10, 64 bit, 1920x1080 screen
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →White Haven Mysteries has been sitting on my Steam account since 2013, and I have to wonder why I waited so long to play it. It’s a pretty good game with an interesting story. The game is from 2012, but don’t let its age fool you: everything looks fairly modern. And if you want to get creeped out, you’ll find it in the unsettling imagery, as well as music that reminded me a lot of Alan Wake (one piano note playing on a loop, and the sound of a gust of wind deafening you). I really enjoyed the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is yet another case where a neutral or "meh" option would be ideal. It wasn't, well, good... but it also was far from the worst game I've played. The storyline was boring, tons of clues leading to a rather obvious, and unfulfilling, ending. It really didn't have much of an resolution. The HO scenes were ok. Most were not particularly challenging, but some items were almost invisible or hidden. There was far too much running back and forth getting random things that made NO sense, and a…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →White Haven Mysteries is a straight forward HOG (Hidden Object Game) that adds little new to the genre. There are a lot of HO scenes and very few puzzles. While there is no fast travel or map, each scene lets you know when you have completed all the tasks on it. While there is a fair amount of backtracking, it's not tiresome as the game is very short, taking just 90 minutes for me to beat. The game sets itself up as a horror adventure and asks you to play with the sound turned up and the lights…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you are a fan of Mystery Case Files, this is right up your alley. I've played a few finding games and this is the closest a game has been to the likeness of MCF. Although not as difficult (which sometimes can be a relief!), White Haven Mysteries offers more finding games and the atmosphere is just as creepy. The only downside is it is really short, completed in a couple of hours.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pros: Cheap (If you get it on sale or with a coupon) Easy Long enough Cons: Too many campy cutscenes Lots of illogical going back and forth Low originality Like most Gogii games, won't shut down quickly (you may have to reboot your computer) Really bad science...
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I liked it. Mostly because there were things to find and do through out the game. But its kinda short, but still alright. The sad part is that all these Hidden Object games cost a whopping 20 bucks now adays. WAY over priced. But with nice graphics maybe its worth that price. Cant say, up to each and everyone what they think. Would I recommend ? Yes, when on sale grab it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is an older HOG and it shows it's age but I kinda liked that about it. This game doesn't have the QoL features a lot of the new games have i.e. fast travel, map, etc but it's designed in a way where you don't find yourself missing it. The back traveling is minimal and there aren't a huge amount of different areas anyways. There aren't that many puzzles and they are pretty simple. The HO scenes are actually pretty well done and there are a lot of them. The story is ok but good enough to…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Yes. It's just like being there.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →[url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45030479/]🧩Undecided & Puzzled Reviews🧩Visit and follow my curator page if you enjoyed this review❤️ White Haven Mysteries For the game's age it was surprisingly entertaining. The biggest issue I had was the graphics, especially the resolution. No matter what changes I made, the game insisted on performing poorly and using a very tiny windowed screen even when the settings were for full screen. This affected some of the game play. For instance,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I beat this game by accident lol
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Yet another poorly written game where a sad, stigmatized, underdeveloped understanding of dissociative identity is the underwhelming plot twist and there is no real ending. Lazy at best. I didn't expect the world from a little hidden object game, but I didn't expect it to be this unfortunate, either. Additionally, the functionality on the reading materials is limited to the point of distraction. The game always forces you back to the start in the journal feature. With very low expectations I…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →fun little hidden object mystery game
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really liked this one the atmosphere was great and spooky. Lots on HO scenes. And I actually thought the story was cool. The big problem was my save file had corrupted when I was almost done with the game so I had to start all the way over. I suggest just playing it in one sitting its not too long. Definitely get this one on sale though because of that annoying bug.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Standard HOG. If you play with a HOG Bingo board, you'll definitely get a bingo playing this one. My only complaint is that, even for a slapped together story plot, the ending was very lackluster.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You may have to start over after saving due to corrupted save file?
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Do not purchase. Unless you play this game in one sitting (and it's one of the longer HO games), you will not be able to finish. At some point in the playthrough, the save file gets corrupted, and you cannot finish. What a waste, because this game had great potential.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pros +Nicely created environments. +HO scenes are decent (although repeated) +The 2 HO scenes in shapes are great Cons +Bad story with no ending +Unskippable “loading” screen +No achievements +No mis-click penalty +Repeated items being collected in HO scenes +Repeated HO scenes +Puzzles too easy +Short (less than 2 hours) +Repeated / annoying music (ring around the rosie) A standard hidden object game, but really needs some polish. White Haven Mysteries has some of what you expect from a…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Excellent storyline and very fun to play!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Meh. Game play was average. Ending was a big let down. :(
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →My name is odinN, and I recommend this game that must play everyone!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tags: Adventure - WC - Hidden Object Additional Tags: Delete Local Content & Remove from Library TLDR: Run of the mill, uninspired casualized spooky manor exploration walk clicker with minigames. Resolution feels uncomfortable. Interactivity feels distant. My hope when I bought a bunch of hidden object games, would be that it would skip the moon logic and tediousness of traditional point&click while focusing on higher paced gameplay and story exposition. Lets just say White Haven Mysteries…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →O jogo é legal, mas perde o save. Tive que recomeçar várias vezes por causa desse problema.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is very short and the cut scenes are pretty dreadful but the interactive experience was fun and the puzzles were challenging. I did notice that the save file corrupted and I had to start over quite a lot. Perhaps a bug to be fixed soon?
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Gogii Games is hit and miss for HOGs. I loved it. I never ran into any game-breaking bugs so I can't coment on that.
