I played this awhile ago and probably won't play it again. The story is a worn out one and don't be impressed with the words "Director's Cut". It was just blah.....:(
I don't recommend this game.

This has to be one of the most beautiful games I have ever played. Playing both of them was wonderful. It is right along the lines of "Keepsake", "Dreamfall" and "Zanzarah" all of which Big Fish need to get. The premise is extraordinary, the game play very smooth on my computer and was just an overall great experience.
I recommend this game!

After playing White Haven, a bomb of a game, 1000 Doors was a breath of fresh air. While I found it a bit absurd that a child was the central figure, the games were challenging, the premise was interesting, and the over all "feel" of the game was neat. I liked it quite well.
I recommend this game!

What a disappointment. It started out okay, but fizzled early on. I play a lot of H.O.G.'s during the daytime....leaving my harder games for in the evening. This game promised scary.......nope, just fizzle. A game to pass by.
I don't recommend this game.
Search for clues, solve puzzles, and unlock new areas as you visit spooky locations, master mini-games and locate Hidden Objects!

I found the SE of this game a bit on the boring side. The beginning is predictable (car crash) and while the story was a bit interesting, it could have been done better and the ending is quite flat. I finished it in a couple of hours and while I know I won't be playing it again, it was a way to pass some time. Don't expect great things tho'
I don't recommend this game.

This is definitely a unique game. While it does have a tendency to drag, all in all a Rhiannon was worth the time. It does get complicated sometimes so a walkthrough really helps a lot. I play a lot of adventure, first and third person games, and for a first person game, this was worth the money...any higher price and I would pass.
I recommend this game!

I really enjoyed this game. Pretty good games a neat plot, things were going great then.....BAM! It was over! It's almost like the people who made the game either ran out of ideas, money, or time. The ending comes out of the blue, fizzles and you are left with the credits. Great premise, very poor ending...which is sad, because the ending had GREAT potential.
I recommend this game!
