Yep, this is quite a nice game. Very creepy.

Mmm, I didn't like it as much.
I'd have given it a 3.5 or such. Still worth playing. Definitely still worth playing tho'. EDIT: And they could've at least used the same rendering tool they used to make the backgrounds to make some decent character models. The Reloaded community is a bit too soft on adventures, so far the best on the site are the Stranger games and the King's Quest remakes, ways too many 4 or 5s methinks. -------------------- |

Definitely different type of adventure that I've played, and I've played a lot of them,
 a worthy look.

Great at the beginning, boring in the middle und ok at the end.
 The game crashed several times, especially after cutscenes and after loading. Cutscenes should be possible to skip, I remember one with nearly 5 Minutes. Walking speed is too slow in some places. I'm looking forward to the sequel, great work

Oh, fer cryin'...Does nobody read the manual? The "walk speed is too slow" arguement always let's me know the people who DIDN'T read it. RTFM!!!
  In other news, we had to change website addresses. LGM, my webmaster, said Prodigal was killing his bandwidth. The game is now hosted by Filefront. Hopefully I can get in mirrored here? I don't like Filefront 'cause you can't get a direct download link. Kinda annoying. I've hopefully updated all the places that contained the old web addie...but let me know if I missed someplace.

Haven't played yet but I will eventually. I would have already if it wasn't for the player character, kinda put me off a bit.

It's my second favorite game of all time, I think, after Psychonauts.
Really creepy atmosphere, traumatizing ending. I confess that the middle part is a bit boring and some puzzles were too easy. But the rest, music, atmosphere, story, outweight all of this. |

Lovely game - very creepy.
 It's an excellent story with lots of atmosphere. That was an interesting twist at the end - didn't expect that to happen. Looking forward to the sequel.

Haha, yeh this is a great game, but like all horror games, I read the walkthrough first so it wouldn't scare me.
 That didn't work. Great great game.

I suppose there is a possibility we can host it, but I can't answer that. You should PM Taikara and discuss it with her.

This game is now hosted on our site (again)
It was set up for hosting a few days ago, but there seemed to be a bit of confusion, and the download location was switched to the FileFront download site, hehe. -------------------- ..<[[[Tofu Ninja of the Pickasldawessle Order]]]>..
