Status : Offline | Tough one. My first impression after finishing it was to give it a 7. Good story, excellent atmosphere. Not outright scary overall (save for a couple of really heart stopping moments) but more foreboding and gloomy. Puzzles make creative use of the design of the house. On the down side: I didn't like getting the runaround on day 1. Some annoying pixel hunting as well.
But then I found out just how much of the backstory went over my head, that I missed completely, that made a good story a great story. The game had a lot of impressive subtleties that almost make me want to give it an 8. Almost, but not quite. I'll stick with a 7. Still, an impressive first effort for the folks at Nucleosys.

| Deleted User | Looks like my rating of 7 is right on target with the majority. I really liked the atmosphere and story. However, a lot of the major puzzles, IMHO, were just to non-sensical (sp?), illogical, really strecthing it or whatever you want to call it. It was a good first outing for team Nucleosys and I look forward to their next project.
