Oh dear.
Time to replay all the series and recall what is it all about.

[david]

After everything's said and done, what more can I say?
CONGRATULATIONS! You've really subscribed to the AGS history and you've been remembered in our hearts, for sure

[PuNKKoMmANDO77]

Yes! Finally the last chapter of the Ben adventures.
I grow up with this saga.
Congratulations Francisco!

http://www.kickstarter.com/ to collect some money and then to be able to continue working on another part! Guess, there will be lots of fans supporting you with the project!

[WHAM]

Hurrah! Downloadering!

[Mods]

Congrats and I'm glad the time/space continuum didn't collapse because of it. Downloading with a hope to play it over the weekend! Kudos for probably the strongest series of AGS games

Squee!! Can't wait to play this! What an awesome thing to wake up to.

[amateurhour]

This looks amazing. As a newbie to the series I'm actually getting all of them now for a big marathon this weekend. Congrats on #8 !

[Mike S.]

What a great game. As with every release, you've outdone yourself. Fantastic.

[RaGG]

amazing, amazing game. Thanks for doing this, Grundi

[Crimson Wizard]

Also wanted to share that it was impossible to run this on my laptop with Win 7 on it, until I changed the display resolution from 32 to 16.

Yeah, that's because the game requires to be run with DirectX 5 (my Windows changes color mode automatically though). One of the plugins (or both) used in this game does not support Direct3D 9 driver.

----
Ah, it seems that also requires to be run in compatibility with Win'98 mode to be able to save and reload. Probably only for some of non-latin locales.

Thanks to BJ8 I've now been to the best pub in London! Another thing off the bucket list.

[jugwhisky]

I finally played BJ 1 through 6 earlier this summer in a week or so, and will probably play 7 back-to-back with 8. Congrats on the series, G-R-U-N-Dislav!

Holy crap!
Please cancel my appointments and hold all of my calls for this weekend!

A very happy (and also very sad) day.

Downloaded the moment I saw it.

And since mkennedy asked, here are a few links to:

The game without the music and speech

The music file as a separate download

The speech file as a separate download

And a mirror to the complete game as well

Absolutely loving it! My only gripe (sorry!) is the low recording quality of Ben's voice - he sounds very muffled against everyone else. But apart from that, EXCELLENT!

[buddha]

Great! Congratz on getting it out the door! Guess what game I'll be playing this weekend. Me and my weekend thank you!

[TomatoesInTheHead]

Downloaded, will now finish all the work I've got to do as fast as I can, then gather my family around the pc, replay BJ 1-7 and then get to this Grand Finale. Happy days of square eyes ahead!

And I'm already excited as to what your next project will be!

[agentbauer]

Absolutely loving it, wonderful game. Too sad, that it is the last BJ game...
Finished it, and had much fun, thanks for this wonderful game, Grundislav

[an Urpney]

Very enjoyable game indeed. Some some minor complains and thoughts : )

- Isn't penanggalan (flying female head with intrails) an asian monster? I was pretty surprised to see her in eastern Europe.
- Why does 1920s townfolks speak better English than many people here in Poland today? : )
- Why does 1920s gentleman speaks so modern English? : )
- I really hoped for some more backstory behind Percy's longevity; his promise to Arthur was just a little... unfulfilling.

Overall - thank you Grundislav for this great adventure! Shame Ben left paranormal investigating.
Signing off to look for the secret ending : )
