"Paranoid fanatic and a certified ahole"
... that was what another reviewer wrote and it was my thoughts exactly. It's a negative when a game opens with a bible quote; but it gets worse, oh boy does it get worse. It doesn't take long before the main character is screaming nonsense about god, sin and hell. There is nothing but religious babble from the start. The main character is a paranoid fanatic and he begins fighting his addict brother-in-law about where his bible is. From there it just keeps going. This is too much melodrama for an opening. I did like the voice acting and the general look. And for once in adventure games, the animations isn't stiff and clunky. But this game doesn't scream horror to me, but mental illness and fanatic delusional paranoia. A flawed character can be very intriguing and this is a plus, but we need to be able to follow the character to that point and maybe relate a bit. Another thing that detracts from the score is the actually gameplay. More specifically the way you interact with the hightlights. They seems to work a bit weird, like they are too big or cover a too big of a general area. I'm not sure, but it's lacks precision. It gave me trouble cliking on the church like I wanted and just kept getting the same dialog over and over again. Same when I had to interact with the dolls. And then lastly, the way skipping dialog is way to sensitive as a single click can jump two or three sentences ahead in on go. I'm giving it a 3 because I see the main annoyances with the game being the themes for me, and I know it will be just the thing for some people. But this is a pass for me unless the focus is shifted to a decent horror story and not thauma and personal trauma. A thing I felt missing is the option to do what I want and not be forced to follow the character's wants to a letter; like going downstairs.
