Awful controls ruin gameplay
I usually don't write a review after half an hour of gameplay, but as I wish I had had this information before spending money on this game, I'll make an exception this time. The graphics are nice, the atmosphere is created well and I quite like the idea of a somewhat creepy exploration game without fight scenes or having to run away. Still, this game is nearly unplayable for me because of its awful controls. To open anything, one has to click the mouse and move it. With a laptop, one only has the small touch pad and it doesn't always offer enough space for the movement required by this game. There is a chest I nearly couldn't open because I had to move the mouse upward and when I got to the end of the touch pad it wasn't upward enough and the trunk slammed shut again. Took me endless tries. Same with some of the doors. This might be the first game to give me carpal tunnel syndrome and it takes all of the fun out of the gameplay and makes it tedious. It doesn't save properly. When I leave the game, I'm back where I started. I tried several times. An internet search revealed conflicting information about how this game saves - some say it does so each time you hit Esc, which is NOT the case in my version, others say it only saves at certain intervals. In addition, it lagged badly until I set all graphics options to the lowest levels, but was just a minor issue that was solved quickly. So, while this looks like a game I might enjoy it if was user-friendly, I fear that I completely wasted my money on this one. It's a pity, I very much wanted to like it.
