PC - Shadow Tor/Lighthouse Entertainment

A point-and-click game, which means it is easy to use with eye control or a head mouse, as you have all the time you want to explore the screen and then click on the direction/ action you want to go/ do.

The game is set in Cornwall where the player must complete a range of puzzles and challenges to discover what is going on at the cursed Barrow Hill. If you get stuck, there are a number of walkthroughs online. The game does not operate within a separate window, however the menu is easily accessible within the game so you can ‘exit’ etc by looking/pointing to the top of the screen. Despite having an age rating of only 7+ the atmosphere of the game is eerie and can be quite spooky.
