A nice short mystery game

If you want a break from intense action games or stressful survival horrors, this game may be for you. Just walk around while talking to the other characters and let the story unfold. I mean, there is still plenty of spooky and creepy stuff in the game, but it felt "good" creepy – not "OMG don't let the monster see me I don't want to play anymore" creepy. :) Just be prepared to take an active part in the game, as the dialog continues with or without you (unlike, say, a visual novel). Overall, I liked the art, the characters, voice acting, music, ... simply the whole package. It's not an epoch-defining masterpiece or an "instant classic", but it's simply a good, satisfying game. The ending left me feeling like not everything was answered completely to my liking, but other than that it was good and satisfying as well. I would rate it 4.5, but the form does not accept fractions, so rounding up to 5. Btw., the game isn't very long and I felt like I missed some stuff on the first playthrough, so I started again right as I finished. And if you liked the game, I suggest you give it a go as well – for a story-driven game, the replayability is surprisingly good. I just wish Alex would run a bit faster – it's not that fun when you have to wait to walk through the same scene for the third time... :)
