There have been plenty of shows more accessible, satisfying, and, perhaps, even better overall, but 10 years after that first episode, Lost still holds a special place in our collective hearts as one of the best drama series of all time. From Hurley to the polar bears, the the Dharma Initiative to 'not Penny's boat!!,' Lost made an impact on TV at the time of its airing greater than that of any other series, and today, even with the surplus of high-quality shows available, that complicated, confusing, often irritating ABC drama about a group of survivors still means more to fans than anything else out there. So it's a pleasure every time aspects of the series pops up in our lives, such as when former Lost cast members show up on other series; when, for instance, we hear about an alum like Elizabeth Mitchell getting cast on Once Upon a Time, it's a welcome reminder that while the show is long over, its legacy lives on.

While Mitchell, who played Juliet, won't be showing up on Once Upon a Time for another few months, it's still exciting to know that a Lost alum, especially one so beloved (well, at least by fans), will be rejoining the small screen. Even better? She's not the only one. Nine more former Lost cast members who'll be on TV this fall:

Cast: Kim Myung Min, Lee Yeon Hee, Oh Dal Su, Jo Kwan Woo. Synopsis: Detective K (Kim) returns to uncover the mystery of missing girls.

Daniel Dae Kim

Now On: Hawaii Five-0, alongside his former Lost2020 expedition brochure. -mate, Garcia guest-starred in several episodes throughout season four as Jerry Ortega, a conspiracy theorist, but starting this fall, he'll be a series regular.

Now On: Gang Related, a Fox drama that premiered in May. His character, Sam Chapel, is head of the LAPD's gang task force. Reviews of the show haven't been great, but it's early enough that things could improve before long.

Missing on Lost Island (aka Ztracený ostrov (Czech), Verschollen Auf Lost Island (German)) is a 2000 Czech/Slovakian adventure game developed by Mayhem Studios and Riki Computer Games, and published by Bohemia Interactive. Ant queen books 2017.

Development[edit]

Officially developed by Slovak Mayhem Studios, the game's development was actually centered in Bohemia Interactive in the Czech Republic, which is where aspects like the dubbing was completed. The dubbing was done by Jiri Labus, who had previously lent his voice to the previous Slovak adventure game Ve Stínu Havrana. The original intention of the title, according to Bonusweb.cz, was to make a serious adventure around the theme of pirates, unlike previous games like the comical The Secret of Monkey Island.^[1] According to Absolute Games, the intention of the debut game from Mayhem Studios was a classic title in the style of The Secret of Monkey Island meets Indiana Jones.^[2]

While ARI Data was supposed to be the publisher in the German language area, as a result of its bankruptcy, Gamepad acquired the distribution license.^[3]

Plot and gameplay[edit]

Tim and Diana are on a quest to return to their own time period and location.

The title is a Czech/Slovakian 3rd POV point-and-click adventure game with English dialogues and subtitles (despite having a German title). Visually, it is reminiscent of the classic adventure games from the first half of the 1990s. The game is in a 256-color palette.^[1] The 2D game features handpainted backgrounds.^[3] Adventure Archiv enjoyed the game's narrative twists and turns.^[3]

Critical reception[edit]

Bonusweb.cz thought that while the game had some favourable features, it fell short of promising Czech adventures like Polda 3 and Fairy Tale about Father Frost, Ivan and Nastya.^[1] Four Fat Chicks favoured the game's low-key characters to the obnoxious style seen in games like Koala Lumpur: Journey to the Edge.^[4] Quandary thought the game was amusing with some delightful animations.^[5] Mr Bill's Adventure Land praised the impressive realistic movement in the game.^[6]
