A little miracle that I found this game !!!
- Voice overs
- Notebook
- Interactive map
- H0, you don't interact but you can swap them for puzzles
- Good mini games
- Good music that fits so well the story
- Good graphics
- Interesting story
Really glad I found this game, bought it straight away. People get bitten and strange plants are invading the town, you investigate. This SE is really worth a try and a buy, so seldom we get a good one. Really enjoying myself with it
I recommend this game!
Are a town’s superstitions justified? Follow the blood to find out!

Played 30 minutes, casual
- 3 modes, casual, advanced and custom, a very nice plus as you can adjust the game to your likings
- Voice overs
- Journal, bottom right side of your screen
- Map, can't say if it's interactive as I didn't try it
- Instructions button but they're given to you as soon as you finish a scene
- Quite a few cut scenes
- Hint button refills really quickly
- Skip button, fills quickly too
- H0, you don't interact, a lot of them
- Good, if not new, mini games
- Good graphics
A magistrate has been killed in a weird way, you investigate. A nice game on which I will spend a punch card credit.
I recommend this game!

Played 25 minutes, casual.

- 3 modes, casual, advanced, hard
- Integrated SG which stays on the page you leave
- SG only shows 3 chapters in the sample
- Notebook
- No map
- Voice overs
- Throughout the game you have to collect 25 musical instruments
- Shortly after starting the game you get a magic violin and sheets of music that help you to get rid of the dark shadows blocking your way

- Hint button refills quickly casual
- Very good music

- Voice overs
- Notebook
- Shortly after playing you get a map
- Hint useful outside H0, refills in 30 seconds casual and 2 minutes expert

Loved the game but it is very sad and gloomy... The story -drowned brother reappearing, messing up with your future wedding- isn't over cheerful either. Still it's a buy for me ....

Played 45 minutes, regular
- 2 modes, regular, expert
- Note book
- Map that shows area of interest, locations of H0 and mini games, you can't jump from one place to another with it
- No hint outside H0
- Skip button
- H0, you interact but the objects you have to find by interaction have no different color in the list, you just find out by yourself. Some objects are really tiny, pretty hard to find
- Mini games not over difficult
- Good graphics
Your grandmother is missing. Statues of werewolves in the park...what happened !!
Can't make up my mind about this one, I would like to know how it ends but I'm a bit put off by the game play........Might spend a punch card credit.
