Phantasmagoria

A classic, but…

Phantasmagoria is a classic but that doesn't mean it's good. I'm going to forget that it was a short game that originally came in seven CDs, because we're talking about the GOG digital version and I'm going to focus in the game itself. I don't mind Full Motion Video, in fact I think I like it, but if you use it, you better use it well, because it needs to be more logical than a movie since you are part of it. Poor acting and some incoherent sequences spoil that, so you can't inmerse youself in the experience nor enjoy it like a movie either. The music does a good job, however it's not enough to help the insustancial plot or the bad script when it comes to scare you. This game isn't scary and, although it tries to be disturbing in various ways, the most it gets it's to be comical. The best I can say is that I didn't get totally bored but the only reason why someone should play this title is for the sake of gaming history knowledge.
