I did the same thing from Gamersgate also.
Richard

so did I

I ordered the game from Dave at Interact. He got it on the 17th, I have it in my hand now, even before it's ready for download in the US, I believe! (Well, not actually in my hand. My typing is bad enough without that.)

I don't know whether to save it for my day off and savor the anticipation or dive in and play, but I do know the price difference is worth it just to have the game on disc. This is going to be a keeper.

Thank you so much, Dave, for the fast service!

traveler, it's really a long game try not to use the walkthrough. Really a great game. I played it about 3 weeks ago without a wt and really enjoyed it. You really have to do a lot of searching. it took me about 4 days on and off. You can save anywhere.

I'll try, Richard, but I don't guarantee I won't be scrambling to find the walkthrough you're writing. You are writing one, aren't you? <g>

Seriously, I loved the demo and if that and your comments are anything to go by, it's bound to be a great game.

Gil.

I'm not writing a wt somebody else wrote one. Simon Tamas wrote one. Check the wt here on GB.

I just finished the game. It arrived in the mail yesterday, and I started playing it. I finished it this afternoon when I got home from work. Of course, yesterday was my day off, so I had quite a bit of playing time then. This was a game I absolutely could not put down.

Oh, and I never needed a walkthrough for it.

Excellent game. Definitely going on my list of recommended games when it comes up next year.

You convinced me, I just ordered from Interact.

I'm playing and on chapter 4. I've had to use a w/t a few times, but it seems that I usually do.
The voices are excellent, the graphics superb, as well as the story. I can't remember when I've enjoyed a game this much for a long time. I think this is a Class A game!!! Teddo

Great, Ana! Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Mine is on its way! Can't wait with all the positive comments this game is getting. I played the demo and enjoyed that so the full game should be great!

Wow !!
Brilliant to hear all these positive comments

I have the game waiting to be played - so definitely sounds like a treat in store

Ya know, all this conversation is somewhat amusing but I would greatly appreciate an answer to a simple question. Where am I supposed to buy this game?

Interact has it. Click on the small banner at top of the page.

I is rare to find a game like this, beautiful, just beautiful game in every detail .

I agree! I'm loving every minute of it.

Just one criticism so far: When you use an object in a scene, you see the character using it but his hands are empty, so you just kinda have to imagine it's there. ;D But aside from that, still a wonderfully entertaining game.

I just got the game on steam for $17.99

Party tonight WooHoo

As noted above I bought mine from England before Dave had it listed. It only took four days to get it and I am on the left coast. Still have not played it, next on my list. But as Mad said they ship to the US. This one cost 22.94 pounds or $35.88 US Delivered.

For future reference these guys will ship to US

I changed the thread title to reflect the game's new availability.

I've just finished Lost Horizon and Richard was right, it is terrific! And yes, it can be done without a walkthrough, though without his encouragement I'm not sure I'd have kept plugging and done it. <g> (Not sure if that's really a spoiler but just to be on the safe side....)

Anyway, I played the bonus game afterward, part of the opening of Lost Horizon as it was originally conceived, and it sure did bring home how much work went into making the finished product. Deep Silver did a great job, they have a real winner here and I wouldn't mind at all seeing more of Fenton Paddock!

Gil.

Traveler, I loved the bonus section. In fact, it made me a little sad we didn't get to play Kim more. Don't get me wrong, I love the game as it is. I enjoyed it more than the Secret Files games.

It's just that with those games, one thing that was fun about them were the sections where Nina and Max worked as a team. I would like to have seen more of that implemented in this game.

Even so, excellent game. And I'm looking forward to Secret Files 3. It seems their games just keep getting better.

Venus, it would be great to have a separate thread on the game in order to discuss what we liked, didn't like or thought could be improved about Lost Horizon but that will have to wait, I think, until we won't be tossing spoilers all over the place. <g>

Gil.

You're welcome to start a Lost Horizon Plot Discussion(Spoilers) thread any time you like.

Played the Demo, loved it. Just ordered from Dave.

I loved it. Sat back during cut scenes, was in movie theater, then back to being actually in the movie! Very well done, very well scripted and great voices for script. Can't say enough, come back, Padlock, er Paddock!
