I can understand the mixed reviews. I "finished" it over the weekend and my opinion is mixed. The first hour or so I was really into it. I pulled out a notebook and started writing down clues - always a good sign. However after being on a roll with figuring things out I hit a wall and it turned to frustration. I resorted to a guide to help just get past that bit, but was a bit disappointed. It wasnt through lack of brain power that I got stuck and I thought it was a bit cheap to be honest. I was then on my way again, but the last parts of the story didnt unfold for me as well as I would have liked - I guess different people will have a different view of these depending on their own thought pattern.
Considering the cast the voice acting, although great for the most part, doesnt always flow well. Also graphically it is shocking - really bad. I know graphics arent really important with a game like this. It is glitchy and the textures and character models are a few generations old. There's no excuse for a game that only has 4 rooms.
It is a good premise though and something a bit different.
