Our take on Dark Tales: Edgar Allan Poe's The Devil in the Belfry Collector's Edition

The game’s scene-search and puzzle format keeps play centered on observation and problem-solving. That focus leaves little room for action or varied combat mechanics, so players seeking a combat-led adventure may find its activity range narrow.

What is Dark Tales: Edgar Allan Poe's The Devil in the Belfry Collector's Edition?

Investigate a series of deaths in Morden, where each victim dies after the bell tower’s 13th chime, and an old friend who pursued the case goes missing.

Work with Dupin to explore the mystery of the bell and determine whether a specter or illusions are involved. Gameplay combines searching scenes for listed objects with occasional mini-games and puzzles. The Collector’s Edition adds a separate story about Louise Wheeler’s children, who seek their father’s will and an ancient treasure while trying to free their mother and save their Illusion Theater.

Collect magic cards and puzzle pieces to access an extra puzzle and stories. The edition also includes replayable hidden-object scenes and mini-games, achievement awards, artwork, music, screensavers, wallpapers, and a strategy guide.
