Best FMV game I've ever played!
I've played soo many fmv games. I used to be obsessed with them and my dad used to keep buying them for me every other month! He was as obsessed as I was..>But I had NEVER bothered buying Phantasmagoria because of the content ( I was about 12-14) then and my father heard about how great it was but how gory it was.. Let me just tell you, I am sooo glad he didn't buy this for me because I experienced this as an adult and loved every minute of it... From the beginning I was blown away by the ease of the point and click part of the game, as well as all of the rooms and objects that needed to be examined! There were soo many of them! I felt like a kid again going around clicking on anything that could be clicked. I am kind of hesitant about playing phantasmagoria 2 since i've seen the reviews, plus I do not want to spoil all the awesomeness that Phantasmagoria 1 possessed. It is truly an amazing game, one of the best (if not THEE best) fmv game out there. Those who haven't played it I am DEMANDING YOU TO PLAY THIS GAME! It truly is one i'll never forget.

Short and not so sweet
"Phantasmagoria" takes an interesting story and turns it into something redundant and uninteresting because of poor game mechanics. The game itself can be played through in a relatively short time... assuming, that is, that the game does not auto-save over a save that you create before a major event. At the end of the 6th chapter, I created a save to ensure that if there was a problem going into the final chapter, I could go back--but suddenly, despite there being no auto-save function earlier in the game, the game replaced the save file at a point in which the game could no longer be finished. I had to start the previous chapter again to collect all necessary items. Sadly, this was the most time-consuming part of an otherwise linear and relatively straight-forward sequence of events. As other reviews note, this game can stump you at times because of minute details on useable items (i.e., an object that you have held for a while and has an interactive element that the cursor does not always notice). The game can also be difficult to navigate because of unclear environments (that is, it's not always obvious where you can go). A final frustrating element was that there were so many items you could interact with that did not actually do anything for the game--you can sit on several couches and chairs to absolutely no purpose. These mechanics made the game feel long, but the actual game play (and not frustrated fumblings with interface) was short.

picture-hunting game on 8 discs
This game is simply BORING. Nothing happens in it, everything is predictable, the most difficulty is to suffer all the brushing hair, sitting down on the sofa, walking up stairs - not to reach anything interesting, just to advance in the "story". After the first hour you'll even forget there's a story, and wait for the occasional kinky stuff, what are really not many. Even the ending is unqualifying. The thing that made this product history is the immense space it takes - it was basically ensured one of your discs will go scratchy and no longer be able to play that part of the game. Ever. Oh, and the infamous rape-sceen. And the fact the puzzles are never surrealistic like in Sam&Max hit the road, so you'll actually find them out instead of the usual random guessing.
