Jack the Ripper (2004) | Horror/Mystery | 4K60 | Longplay Full Game Walkthrough
Full game longplay of Jack the Ripper: New York 1901, a point-and-click Horror/Mystery adventure game, released in 2004 for the PC. Note: It is not the Sherlock Holmes series game, it’s a completely unrelated and separate The Adventure Company production. Here played in forced 4:3 4K resolution via dgVoodoo. Recorded in 4K60.
Yet another mystery/horror adventure game to hit my channel, in the best resolution and quality possible. This time, it’s Jack the Ripper themed game, that was apparently critically panned on release, circa 58/100 on Metacritic, generally a mediocre game. Funnily enough, IGN gave it a 7.8/10. Some things never really change, do they? I’d say the single most limiting/negative aspect of the game, is the usage of the same type, perhaps even the same engine revision, as the Post Mortem, and first two Dracula games. It’s a sort of first person perspective game, with prerendered backgrounds, and just some characters and all interactive elements rendered in 3D. And only those things actually do benefit from the 4K resolution force change, backgrounds are left unchanged regardless of resolution. All the story interactions are told via FMVs, not on the game engine. So, as in Post Mortem, you can clearly see fully static, not moving an inch, characters everywhere you go, especially in the Red Chapel bar here. It’s 2004, Syberia’s been released 2 years earlier. It’s very late to still go on with this 1999 adventure game engine bullshit. But anyway, game seems to be pretty a-okay by itself, save for it not telling you at all what to do unless our protagonist clearly does. Story is quite good actually, quite horror-adjacent, and it’s definitely the best aspect of the game. And it is a story-driven game, so it’s not as bad a game as you might think. I’d rate it weak 7/10 nowadays, and would recommend it to every “Jack the Ripper“ character fan, for all the rest - go with Post Mortem for a (more) quality 1900’s period horror-adventure game!
The game is set in New York in 1901, where James Palmer, a reporter of the newspaper New York Today, is investigating a set of murders similar to those of “Jack the Ripper“ in Whitechapel thirteen years earlier; the murders turn out to be the work of the actual Ripper.
