The Purring Reaper
This is undoubtedly an intriguing game. The story is definitely the driving force. It is well-written for a video game, but (sadly) as the standard for video game stories is so low, it would only be a mediocre (at best) book or movie. (I actually think the story would be better suited for another medium.) It handles depression fairly well, which is nice, but I found the supernatural elements take the focus away. One of my issues with the game is in order to progress the game in certain directions, you have to choose dialogue options that make your character sound like an idiot (or incredibly naïve). This is a horror game, in the sense of horrific, not scary. Most of the events that unfold are quite horrible. They are tempered somewhat by the darkly humorous, which I appreciated. The game has a tendency to have things jump out/suddenly appear, which I find trite, not scary. The visuals are macabre, and done decently. But, I thought they were too much. Some subtlety would have helped. Altogether, I would say if the story intrigues you, give the game a chance. What was ultimately disappointing was with some changes and polishing, it could have been so much better. If I could have, I would have given the game 3 ½ stars.
