The game is superb: have beautiful characters, very charming story, nice and fun gameplay, different endings, cute music! This game have Art style! If you have the 'Coma' series and 'Vambrace: Cold Soul', you must have this game. Btw, in 'Scarlet Hood and the Wicked Wood' you can see posters from 'Coma' and 'Vambrace: Cold Soul'. In 'Vambrace: Cold Soul', you will find out about a nightmare in 'Coma'. I'm glad to have them all. Please, support the development team! P.S. They need to make a skin for Scarlet with a bigger butt just to be normal.
Lorelei Shannon, who had previously served as a writer on the Roberta Williams games King's Quest VII and The Dagger of Amon Ra, was selected to take on the task of writing and designing the sequel to Williams' game, Phantasmagoria. While the first installment was a supernatural horror in the tradition of The Shining and the works of Stephen King, Shannon redeveloped the series into a more modern, urban setting and utilized a psychological horror approach with science fiction undertones; Shannon has said the game was influenced by such authors as Edgar Allan Poe, Charles Beaumont, and Shirley Jackson, and was influenced visually by Joel-Peter Witkin and the film Seven. According to Shannon, the title A Puzzle of Flesh "refers to the puzzle of who Curtis really is, and the fact that his flesh is not his own." While the game Phantasmagoria was shot with live actors super-imposed in bluescreen backgrounds, A Puzzle of Flesh was filmed on set and on location, not unlike a regular feature film (although the game's final scenes, in the Alien World, were shot on bluescreen). Filming took place in and around Seattle, Washington from February to September 1996. Shot on Digital Betacam, nearly four and a half hours of video was shot, from a script over 200 pages long. Much of Shannon's original script had to be cut due to budget constraints, including a lengthy series of puzzles in the mental hospital and some scenes on the alien world. This game is must have for the Phantasmagoria series.
Do you want review? Master storyteller Roberta Williams challenges you to experience the ultimate interactive nightmare. Roberta Williams had long planned to design a horror game, but she waited eight years for software technology to improve before doing so. More than 200 people were involved in making Phantasmagoria, which was based on Williams' 550-page script, about four times the length of an average Hollywood screenplay. It took more than two years to develop and four months to film. The game was originally budgeted for $800,000, but it ultimately cost $4.5 million to develop and was filmed in a $1.5 million studio that Sierra built specifically for the game. The game was directed by Peter Maris and features a cast of twenty-five actors, all performing in front of a blue screen. Most games at the time featured 80 to 100 backgrounds, while Phantasmagoria includes more than 1,000. A professional Hollywood special effects house worked on the game, and the musical score includes a neo-Gregorian chant performed by a 135-voice choir. Those with the bad reviews write about their issues, not about the game's issues. Superb game!
All the old reviews should be deleted! The game was worked in the meantime and done better with every new patch and add-on. That's what happened with 'No man's sky', also. The Cyberpunk game is not the same since launch. Posting a negative review after so much work is callousness and crime. Who wants perfection, must be perfect. For those who buy this game now, this game is the best game in the cyberpunk category. All my respect for CD Projekt RED! Never give up!
