Fired up the title yesterday evening and completed until Stage 6-1 after some 4 hours or so.
But other than the block puzzles, there isn’t much to this game now is it? At least until now, all Vincent does is to spend some time in the bar with the friends, head home, have a nightmare, complete block puzzles, wake up with Catherine, the scene goes to the bar again - rinse, wash, repeat. The Rapunzel arcade game in the bar was pretty good though. I was able to complete the first three levels and then exhausted all the continues. A game within a game heh! :p

I think it must be more than 4 hours in case if you are not skipping anything. If i remember correctly it was around 7+ hours for me. overall it took around 15 hours to beat the game. About the bar that is the most interesting part of the game listen to the dialogues. To be honest its the story of the game which attracted may of us here. Yes the game will get frustratingly difficult when you reach upper levels (not all) more because of some stupid camera angles. Towards the end it will again become a bit easy if you plan to ignore the gold coins.
 
Nope, pretty sure it was some 4+ hours on the save file after Stage 6-1. And no scenes skipped. The only hard stage was that of the Doom's Bride. She was chasing pretty quick and I must have tried that stage more than a dozen times!
 
Completed Clock Tower (6-4) and 7-1 yesterday. The boss battle in Clock Tower was relatively easier and there were 2 checkpoints - a life saver! This is going really slow and steady. :P
 
Completed the Cathedral (level 8) few days back. And paused it. :P

The whole level was easy but Katherine made it harder. She comes in the way of Vincent or refuses to climb quickly and by then, the blocks are already repositioned so she cannot climb anymore. :banghead:

Finally, did a speedrun sorts and completed it. A lengthy cutscene ensued and the game gave an option of saving the gameplay. Saved it and quit. Not sure when I could resume it.
 
Finally, completed the game yesterday. The levels in the last chapter were piss easy compared to the ones before that. Even managed to pull off a 99 combo before the final boss killed Vince by changing the block pattern and suddenly, a spike block came out of nowhere! :P

Good game overall. Good TP.
 
Yeah with better puzzles and a good story.

At one point, I just felt it was a mind-numbing task to just climb and climb and pull that ring at the top of the blocks. :(
