    The puzzles were interesting if sometimes a little frustrating. However the game left me with a sense of disappointment, ending before it felt as though it really began. The game is set on a beautiful island, with interesting looking areas that you never visit. There are many areas in the game that look accessible but aren't making the game feel disappointingly small. There are story elements that seem to go …

    As somebody who absolutely loved Quern, I have to say, this was a bit of a let down. I had no idea I was at the end of the game until I got the achievement for completing it, and even then I thought surely that couldn't be right. There were so many locked gates I expected to have to go back and explore. I enjoyed the puzzles, despite some of them being overly obtuse. But it was just way too short for a follow up to …

    An excellent modern update of the Myst formula, pushing past the homage of Quern into something new and exciting. Challenging puzzles, tactile environments and a great photo mechanic make this very immersive. The world feels very lived in and filled out, too, with a story that really pulls you along. Fantastic atmosphere, with a beautiful mixture of 3D models and pixel textures. I was looking forward to this after …

    This game is... flawed. In a lot of ways. I really wanted to like it, and at times I did, but it really left me wanting more. The visuals and sound design are the two things I have nothing bad to say about it, but that's kinda where the praise ends for me. For such a huge island with cool looking distant landmarks and interesting locked doors (the rest of the beach, the nature trail, etc) that look accessible and then literally never are. It's really disappointing in that regard. Similarly, the…

    A beautiful world with far too much unused potential I finished Dimhaven with very mixed feelings. There is clearly a lot of talent behind this game. The environments are carefully built, the machinery often looks fantastic, and discovering hidden rooms inside other hidden spaces can be genuinely satisfying. I do not regret buying it. But I also came away feeling that Dimhaven repeatedly hints at a much larger, more varied adventure than the one it ultimately delivers. A world that feels…

    I love puzzle games. The Myst Franchise is easily one of my favorite collections of games. They are the gold standard for puzzle adventure games. Sadly, this game does not live up to that standard. Dimhaven suffers from the same issues as Quern did. Despite Dimhaven being MUCH better than Quern by leaps and bounds, the late game suffers from trial and error puzzles and incredibly obtuse clues. The hint system is basically useless. I wouldn often find myself in positions where I knew exactly…

    I liked the game, with some qualifications. The first two areas are great; a fun mix of beautiful environments, interesting puzzles, and a good mix of item puzzles (use item A on object B) and logic puzzles. There are hints of a broader island you'll get to explore - locked gates, maps, phones, a lighthouse in the distance. Then you get to the Manor. And you just never leave. No more open environments, no more exploring Dimhaven, just one very large manor. The puzzles shift from a mix of item…

    The demo/the first hour of the game, is the best part of the whole game, and feels disconnected from the rest. Honestly the game only gets worse as it goes along, there are still cool puzzles here and there but its 50/50 in terms of quality. Quern was much better in how it handled exploration, puzzle design, and story. generous 7/10

    I don’t really know what to say. I absolutely loved the original game, Quern, and I consider it a GEM in the genre. When "From the creators of Quern" popped up here, I was genuinely looking forward to this game ever since it was announced. But Dimhaven disappointed me. In short – it’s unfinished, unpolished, and the pieces just don’t fit together. Let’s start with a few positives – the atmosphere, audio, and visual style are okay. They blend well and pull you in. Also, about half of the…

    I have mixed feelings regarding Dimhaven. Overall, the experience was positive, but this game doesn't quite reach the superb level that the studio (Zadbox) demonstrated in Quern. First thing I must say is that the game does give a nice challenge: the puzzles are interesting, entertaining and not too frustrating (obviously, if a puzzle is not frustrating at all, then it's not as rewarding to solve it, haha). For those seeking my opinion, I would recommend buying this if you have enjoyed…

    Alright. Dimhaven - The Lost Source is done and dusted. This was a very challenging first-person puzzle adventure centered around the protagonist, Emily Ravenstone, as she tries to find her uncle, Zach Ravenstone, who disappeared while working in Kishvar on the island of Dimhaven, which is only accessible via parachuting onto the island (or presumably by fishing boat). With that as the backdrop, Emily parachutes to the landing zone on the island only to find the area deserted. As she explores,…

    I like the game except for one thing: it's core mechanic is one-puzzle-at-a-time. If you get stuck on a puzzle, you can't do anything else; you can't explore or attempt any other puzzle until your current challenge is solved/completed. For me, that's just not fun.

    I am a puzzle game lover and really enjoyed the puzzles and exploration of this developer's prior game Quern. Dimhaven is not like Quern. The story was convoluted fantasy about a lost civilization that we never really get to see or learn much about. Instead we are herded through a house figuring out combination locks from information subtly sprinkled throughout the rooms. After working for 3 hours on a puzzle based on clicks and clanks recorded on a wax cylinder I looked at a walkthrough.…

    Didn't like it. Its really a shame because the first half of the game is really great! A mysterious adventure with puzzles that are fun to solve and fit together, and by the time you're far enough into the game that you can no longer refund, the puzzles become extremely boring and tedious, and none of the interesting concepts and hands on approach to puzzle solving is used anymore, and quickly becomes stare at this thing until you figure it out. I generally enjoy puzzles, but so many of them…

    The game that is here is fine, the puzzles are fine, but it is just way too short, too linear and the puzzles are not as hard as I hoped. Allot seems to have been cut from the initial intended game. I would rather have waited another 2 years and played the game it was intended to be at the start. Optimization is not super good for linux via proton. But it works. The start of the game feels great, but when finished it just feel super lacking compared to quern.

    I find myself in a conflicting place. On the one hand, I truly appreciate the game for what it is doing. An adventure-puzzle game of which the likes can be found similar to Myst is no small feat. However, my experience within the game was marred by constant annoyances of attempting to deduce the developer’s logic based around the puzzles. The more I delved into Dimhaven and progress into the game, I felt as If I’m being constrained into having every step and interaction be another part of a…

    I have to agree with some of the other reviews, the demo portion is by far the most interesting part of the game and each section there after feels slightly worse than what came before. I was also hoping for less linearity within sections. Very often you end up with only one puzzle you are working on with no where else to go if you want to try your hand at something else for a while. Lastly, while I like being able to take pictures and annotate them in game, the restrictions on what you can…

    The puzzles start off promising but the developers seem to have confused "difficult" with "opaque". As the game progresses, many of the puzzles rely on obnoxious + tedious running back and forth, often having to click through multiple mechanisms just to traverse the estate. The final puzzle relies on a level of visual interpretation that doesn't even feel fair given there doesn't appear to be a way to independently confirm individual elements of the puzzle have been entered correctly. In a few…

    The game has a lot of very confusing "hints" where even following the intended solution didn't feel like a natural logical leap, the first half of the game was great and it quickly became tedius to find the solution to puzzles, I looked at a walkthrough for parts of the final puzzle and even with the hints and solution, I didn't understand how anyone got to that conclusion.

    I won't waste time echoing what others have said, so in short, the demo shows you the best of the game. It's the most open area with the most tactile things to interact with and the best integrated puzzles. The game as a whole has enough puzzle content to justify the asking price in my opinion but Dimhaven doesn't deliver on the promise of exploration, with only a handful of small areas to explore and a very linear story which at several points closes off access to previous areas without…

I genuinely want to support developers who still make games like this. That said, the game often seems determined to make things harder in ways that are not particularly clever.

    The game starts out really strong, but the last 3rd of the game is kind of a letdown. The last few puzzles are a bit too easy and not that interesting. Additionally the ending to the story is rather abrupt and not all that interesting. Overall, the game wasn't bad, but it was definitely a step down from their previous work with Quern, which I felt was pretty close to being a masterpiece.

Unfortunately the puzzle design in this game may be one of the most frustrating I have ever experienced.

    To sum it up, the game is great until the final part where the puzzles become pretty tenuous and difficult. It requires you to do more than just take a picture for later, you'll be trying to figure out one puzzle whilst having clues for 3-4 at a time. This is also whilst you clock all the clearly puzzle related items and keep a track of those until they're necessary for when the puzzle comes up.

    I was so excited for this game but I'm not sure what went wrong here. I think the game needed more work before being released. I really can't stand most of the puzzles and the clues only confuses me. I'm simply too frustrated to finish the game. That being said , I still have massive respect for the devs for giving us Quern, which is a great game. I struggled with Quern too but in a fun way, since the puzzles were so much better. Story is okay but nothing special.

    Dimhaven fails to meet my expectations for a game meant to follow up Quern. I'm not even talking about the few bugs I encountered; I can deal with those. The story was underwhelming. The pacing was weirdly off: sometimes normal, sometimes hyperspeed, like when an NPC just appears behind you even though there was no way for them to get there. The puzzles are the main part of the game that I'm sure most players are interested in. Most of them are medium to high difficulty, but you can figure…

Final puzzle is a puzzle type I absolutely hate because my brain doesn't work like that but I can't hold it against the whole game for using a genre of puzzle. Holding photos got in the way A LOT and it was annoying to have to fully exit puzzles to put them away when they block interacting with puzzle elements. On the…

    Pretty enjoyable puzzle game that I felt ended a bit too soon, making it feel (along with other reasons) a little rushed by the developers. Worth playing, but I'd wait for a reasonable discount as it's not the longest game in the world.

    An excellent modern update of the Myst formula, pushing past the homage of Quern into something new and exciting. Challenging puzzles, tactile environments and a great photo mechanic make this very immersive. The world feels very lived in and filled out, too, with a story that really pulls you along. Fantastic atmosphere, with a beautiful mixture of 3D models and pixel textures. I was looking forward to this after playing the demo and this did not disappoint. Easily the best puzzle game since…

    came back to change my review after beating the game. LOVE IT. the puzzles are challenging, and rewarding, when you figure them out, you really feel accomplished..that being said, the only puzzle that was annoying for me that someone people thought was easy was the kitchen binary.. lol. IM EXPECTING THE NEXT ONE ASAP ZADBOX ENT. get working on it!! NOTE- if youre into rpg puzzle games, this is top tier along with the rest of there catalog, no hand holding, drop you into the world, figure it…

    Unfortunately, after playing through this, I can't recommend it and am a frankly shocked at the good reviews (though more on that later, as reading through them, I think they're a little less positive than they first appear). While the game looks beautiful and the voice acting is just fine, I think the game gets a little carried away with this idea it's very clever and the puzzles are difficult so it's a good game. They are difficult, but sadly, there's a difference between puzzles that are…

    I'm a big puzzle fan, and this games' puzzles were either too easy, or needlessly obtuse at times. Fans of myst will also be disappointed at how linear this game is, it set the wrong expectations to compare it to Myst when advertising it. The hint system jumped from minor guidance to solution and a few puzzles, like the Lab Door, or the B electric box left me lost as to how that was the solution even when I knew the solution. The hint system should help me reach an aha moment, not leave me…

    At first i thought i will be having a fun experience starting from the landing bay enjoying the atmosphere great puzzles and mekanic so far but no, the more you progress through the game you will experience the dark side of the worst puzzle system you have ever encountered, the puzzles are extremely tedious to solve, illogical and my hint system isn't working. I tried to love this game but I hate it and it's doesn't relate by any mean to Quern game at all and for anyone thinks this game should…

    I'll be completely honest. just get the demo. the idea of taking pictures of the area is brilliant and the layout of the first area is very good, but the game doesn't really continue these systems. after that area the camera is kinda useless which is unfortunate. A fun concept that i feel wasn't fully implemented into the other parts. there are still puzzles afterwards but they aren't as fun as the first part of the game.

    GORGEOUS game in graphics, atmosphere and audio. Puzzles are especially fun in the beginning, and the camera mechanics are really unique and fun to use. However, the later game puzzles I found to be less fun and some were too hard for me and seemed to ruin the flow of the game, but maybe that's just my poozeling ineptitude. Overall, great game that reminds me of the good old days. 7/10

    I can't really recommend. It's not that puzzles are hard, they are annoying and tedious to execute, which is the worst kind of puzzle. There is no worse feeling than having figure out the "twist" of the puzzle but being stopped by how tedious is has to be executed. Puzzles also almost never give feedback to the player, so if the solution doesn't work, you have no idea if you misunderstood the puzzle or if you just messed up in the executions. Solutions often feel arbitrary and not natural. The…

    After playing the demo of this game I had very high hopes for it. I have been playing point-and-click adventure / puzzle games for decades, and it is rare I get as excited about one as I was for Dimhaven after playing the demo. Sadly, I was ultimately disappointed by it. There's definitely a lot of good in it: the puzzles were interesting, well written, and they blended into the environment really well. I also liked the aesthetic of old pixelated games. The game play was well executed. As an…

    The game is good, but it seems most of the game has been cut. In the demo there was a map slot that was removed in the final release, even from the kickstarter is there assets they didn't use as if the story changed once the funding came from a studio. A huge island with so much to see but not much to do Gonna cut my review short just like the
