Description
What Darkness Conceals, Terror Reveals

Mystery sounds through the haunted halls and rings from the rafters of a deserted museum. Was this a failed dream or was it the waking nightmare of an eccentric old man? Where is the museum's creator, and the other ill-fated visitors who disappeared so long ago?

You enter, with nothing but your wits to help you survive. Wretched spirits watch for the innocent, the unwary, ready to steal your life's essence. Can you hear the shrieks now, the howls and moans and wails? They're waiting for you.
  • Experience spine-tingling first-person adventure.
  • Unravel a mysterious storyline full of twists and turns.
  • Witness ghostly live-action video sequences.
  • Explore a world filled with bizarre 3-D imagery.
  • Startle your senses with chilling music and eerie sound effects.
  • Roam at will throughout the museum - non-linear game play lets you re-visit puzzles that have stumped you.
  • Play again and again - location of items change and puzzles vary each time!

Shivers is awesome

I have loved this game since it came out, and I've probably played it a couple dozen times. It's so much fun, and I've introduced it to so many of my family, so even the next generation is playing!

Experimental but decent.

Shivers is a very decent puzzle game. The puzzles are a bit harder on average, which sure is a breath of fresh air. It's also very atmospheric, with generally very good campy acting and voice acting. The soundtrack is extremely memorable due to some rather experimental choices. You probably won't want any of it in your playlist, but it IS effective. Having a health bar in a game like this just shows how wild the 1990s were in gaming and how many experiments were made. I don't think this was a good idea, since it's completely useless. There are also a big flaw that keep it from being a great game: Most of the puzzles can be solved in any order and most of the game is non-linear - but you often have no clear indication what an action does. Often, you have execute a special action that causes something completely unrelated to happen somwhere else. You can only progress by searching every nook and cranny to see what has changed. You are basically constantly running around. If you like Myst-clones and puzzlers, I think this one is a must play - and don't let the dreary graphics of the first section scare you off. It gets much better. Just be prepared to run in circles for the whole game.

Oldie but Pretty Good

If you can avoid looking for the online hints, it can be a challenging puzzle game
