The 11th Hour

As a Kid, this was terrifying

I played this game when it first came out, which put me at about 10-11 years old at the time, and I found the graphics and puzzles and stuff to be creepy, somewhat challenging, somewhat frustrating, but then ultimately not that creepy. Until... After I beat the game, my computer crashed, and totally wiped the hard drive. I mean like, RIGHT after the ending scenes played out. So for me, that's why this game gets 3 stars: because at the time, I thought the game was haunted. I mean, seriously, RIGHT after the game ends, it crashes, says there's been a "fatal error" and our hard drive is corrupted. New computer and all, all because of a creepy but silly adventure game. But looking back on it now and watching videos on YouTube, man, this game is just another in that long list of "adventure" games from the early-mid 90's where there's a lot of grainy, lousy FMV and 3D rendered puzzles that rely more on trial and error than actual skill. Some of it's spooky still, with lots of skulls and creepy dolls and stuff, but these types of graphics do not age well (unlike much of the 2D stuff from this era that still looks great). So, in short: this game is haunted. It's not haunting, and you can find much better puzzle games out there, but if you're looking to get your nostalgia fix have at it. Just be warned, it carries a terrible curse...
