    Interesting But Flawed Game

    A very interesting premise for a video game that could have been handled better and fleshed out better. The gaming mechanics were intriguing but also could have been fleshed out better allowing the narrative to better utilize its' mechanics to deliver a more enriching experience such as clearer use of alternate endings depending on player choice.

    I'm only a little way into this game, but so far it has the feel of a classic Lovecraft tale or RPG adventure. Strange goings - on, spooky characters, and weird stories. The point allocation system allows you to durmond what the main character excels at and how he grows during the game. (Yes, 'he;' its not gender neutral.) No combat so far, just lots of investigation.

    Slow & Confounding

    As an avid reader of HP Lovectaft, I was very curious about this game. It’s a survival “horror” game. There are few instances of fighting or action. The game consists of conversations with various choices based on character attributes. I felt that the attributes had little effect on the outcome however. There are many opportunities to “investigate” the environment which is basically a point and click experience. The puzzles were frustrating as they did not seem to work in any discernible pattern; just trial and error. I lent this short game to my friend who loved it. I would not recommend. I finished the game, but couldn’t wait for it to be over.

    This is not a game for me in the slightest. It’s very odd and production value is lacking. However, my wife seems to enjoy it so that’s what is important.

    Every year on Cyber Monday I go to Best Buy for a good deal on games, and every year I get the games within a couple days and in the condition as advertised unlike other big name stores I won't name. But you know who I'm talking about. Rhymes with "small tart".
