Good story.
Interesting little story. A bit shorter than I'd like and mildly annoyed that the 'screenshots's aren't really that at all - the protagonist is shown in full in the above images, but she's only really visible in window reflections while in-game. - It's entirely first-person. The various visual effects were well done, and the story well written. Definitely recommend.

Good one if you can bear
Nice game. Short (about three hours long) and quite easy, story-driven adventure game. Nice visuals. Oneiric, magical atmosphere. Clunky gameplay. Riddles are somewhat repeatable and a bit annoying because of slow movement (but there are also some nice ones). After all, I recommend it, but you should wait for a discount. It's a very nice and touching experience but not really worth the full price.

Marred by technical shortcomings
"If this is a dream... I need to eat less cheese." First paragraph will be me venting: This game's controls and camera are so wonky I had to stop playing at times when I started getting queasy. The interactive hotspots are awkward enough that hitting them is harder than the game's actual puzzles. On my second playthrough, some piece of terrain failed to load causing me to fall through the map; even rebooting didn't fix it, and since there's only one checkpoint save and no chapter select, that meant starting all over. Which is a tad annoying, not least since even running after her brother, Scarlett sneaks about on tiptoe, and control is frequently taken away from you when the game thinks Scarlett needs to look at or comment on something. Oh, and the game writes hundreds of megs of debug logs to AppData, so if you're from the era of small boot SSDs, enjoy. That said, this game scores when it comes to story and characters. Portrayal of Scarlett is serviceable, even if she remains something of a flat character on the whole- and did we wear jeans slit at the knees back in the 90s? Finn, though, feels real, round and tragically awesome, and both of their voice actors, Rosie Jones and Kit Connor, are the life and blood of this game, complete with their British accents. The richly detailed levels do well at the daunting task of staging two creative kids, Finn's quirky papermache art represented especially well. The story is real, honest, with no false pathos even in its tearjerker moments, so if you're into narrative games, chances are these 2-3 hours will work for you. It feels wrong giving this three stars. With its colourful surrealism and tender profundity, I feel this game might be a good fit for people Scarlett's age when they're ready to explore things like loss, selfhood, family. However, there are smoother and more accomplished narrative PC games out there. Perhaps get it on a console? Or buy it and then watch a Let's Play?

Who can tell if the story is good or not
The movement in the game is horrendous, causing MAJOR motion sickness. The save system in practically non-existent! Can't get anywhere in the game due to these two issues.

Erzählerische Perle!!!
Was für ein großartiges Spiel! Ohne viel über das Game zu wissen, hatte ich von Anfang an das Gefühl, dass mich dieses Erlebnis fesseln und letztendlich zu Tränen rühren würde - jep, ich hatte recht. Auch wenn die Geschichte nicht völlig undurchschaubar und unvoraussehbar ist, zieht sie einen doch sehr in den Bann. Die Art und Weise, wie der Spieler voranschreitet, unterliegt dem inzwischen schon öfter verwendeten Spielprinzip, wie man es von Ethan Carter, Everybody's Gone To The Rapture und Epathy kennt. Verknüpfe Ereignisketten, um voranzukommen... Dementsprechend gibt es natürlich auch keine Action oder knifflige Rätsel - wie bei Storygames unverzichtbar liegt die Gewichtung auf dem Erzählfluss, nicht auf Hindernissen! Abgesehen von den oben genannten Spielen hat mich das Spiel atmosphärisch oft sehr an Edith Finch und Life Is Strange erinnert. Wer also diese Spiele zu schätzen weiß, wird mit Blackwood Crossing eine weitere erzählerische Perle finden und genießen können! Das einzige Manko ist tatsächlich das Spielzeit/Preis-Verhältnis. 16 Euro für 2,5h Spielzeit ist nicht angemessen. Vermutlich haben die Entwickler die ganzen Abzüge bei den zahlreichen Sales einfach schon mit eingerechnet. ;-)
