A hot mess
Art: fantastic. Quick time movies: fun and immersive. Music: innovative Interface: sucks big time. Overly complicated and inaccurate mouse targeting make this game a lesson in patience. Multiple mouse icons add to confusion whether its a puzzle, a interest point or whatever. The icon changes on a drop making a fussy, hot mess when all you want to do is explore the area. Add in the fact that you cant fast forward the incessant voice over taunts from the protagonist which happen whenever you click an indicated hotspot. In effect, gameplay becomes repeated voice taunts because the mouse keeps indicating an interactable hotspot by a grasping hand icon, used in every other point and click to indicate pick up/interact action but in this game you dont even get immersion text. the music is wonderful... too bad its too loud to hear the actual dialog. the idea for using a digital notebook for user settings and other functions was innovative but in actuality is another mess, with unfathomable buttons/functions, one just ends up clicking anything to see what happens. there is a hint button, not a clue what that does, so far just says arcane sayings with no references. all in all lots of promise but fails in the end with overly complicated user interface which does the primal sin of removing immersion from actual gameplay. skip buying it, watch a 'lets play video' instead off the internet
