Note: Fixed the Case 4 page link at the bottom of the reviews.
Our intrepid Paranormal Investigator is back for his 4th case. Ben Jordan Case #4: Horror at Number 50! I have to say a little bit about Case 3 though as my review wasn’t really based on me finishing that case. The music is still like the best thing (next to the story). And the author upped the ante with regards to story and character by introducing Percival Quentin Jones (sorry if I misspelled it it’s not often one has to spell Quentin or Quinton, or Quinten, or Quintan or something). Case 3’s story has a few twists that showed the developer’s growing as a writer. Now fresh after his visit to London to do some boring paperwork for “Percy”, Ben Jordan is contacted by someone who owns number 50 in Berkley Square in London. I guess it’s a house or an apartment (flat for all you UK folks) or some such thing. In any case there were rumors of hauntings that lead to eventual death. So it’s not your typical ghost story. This time around, Ben has 4 other investigators to help him solve the case. So if you’re as into the Ben Jordan series as I am, then read on! (more…)

Certainly strange to find a ship in a desert, but paranormal? Hardly. Even the Skunk-Ape wasn’t really paranormal, just weird, and legendary. Just like the Legend of Boggy Creek II hilariously lampooned by Mystery Science Theatre 3000. In any case. A lost ship in a desert is an intriguing idea. Is the legend true? How did it get in the desert? Is there’s still treasure in it? All these questions and more are answered in Ben Jordan’s second case, entitled The Lost Galleon of the Salton Sea. Actually Ben’s investigating a disappearance of a local man from Dunesburg, California, who was after the Spanish treasure ship. So I guess mysterious disappearances are within the purview of paranormal investigator, who knows. In any case this promises to be most interesting as did the first case. I did manage to finish the first case by the way. Now I, too, have seen the Skunk-Ape in person and lived to tell the tale. Of course I also had help. Good ol’ internet is to the rescue! Anyways, whereas there’s something artistic about Ben Chandler’s games and less about the game play (not that these are bad, you can see my Shifter and Annie Android reviews to see what I think about them), and Wadjet Eye Games (Dave Gilbert who happens to actually have done testing for this and some voice work, who is superb by the way) eye toward professionalism but keeping with only New York. Ben Jordan is characterized by strong umm, characters, and story. So far both cases have been immediately engaging to me, more so than the others I have reviewed (no offense guys). So here is
