I'm starting to play a lot more adventure games,this is a nice blend of HOPA and I really recommend it... I liked the story,going back farther and farther in ones past to finally right the wrong and I liked making all the dolls,nice twist ... I thought it was a unique story and just enough of everything to make it enjoyable and for me a "one-nighter" I couldn't stop playing,I needed,not wanted,to get to the end and find out how things turned out !! Give it a try,you might get as "hooked" as I found myself...be warned though,there are NO fairys !! lol Happy Gaming Everyone !!!
I totally had the greatest time playing this game !! I found this game the same way I find 85% of my games here at bfg,I read the reviews of several games and pay attention to what games my fellow reviewers are calling they're "Current Favorite" game !! I haven't been led astray by my fellow fishies yet !! It's a wonderful way to see what older games everyone has played when the "new" games list just isn't tickling my fancy...And that's how I found this awesome,fun game !! About "Bloody Mary" : It has really clear graphics,the music in the background stays exactly there-in the background,it didn't bother or annoy me in the least...I loved the story twist !! We all had some sort of "Bloody Mary" myth growing up and I think this game took that childhood myth and made it a fabulously grown-up game !! But not too grown-up for our age 12 and up family members and friends to dive in and play...My "bloody Mary" myth was while in the bathroom with the light out,you take 10 deep but quick breaths in and out with your eyes squinched closed.On your 10th breath you open your eyes as your partner in shenanigations flips on the bathroom light as you stare into the mirror and B A N G !! you see good old "Bloody Mary" ..hyperventilating is what brings our dear,scary childhood nightmare "Mary" on !! lol I only played the SE so I, of course,can't comment on any extras and whatnot,but I think it was a very good SE to play...The map is an excellent one with fast travel,available actions and "mirror-world" fast travel too !! And we have a diary to keep us on track with our clues for our journey ...All in all I gave this one 5 stars because I had forgotten it,my daughter found it in my games list about a year after I had bought and beat it and she just loves it too !! Give it a try today with the money off deal or use one of those credits you've let build up and are looking for a good game to sink your teeth into and pass away a crisp,spring day !! Happy Gaming Fellow Fishies !!!! P.S. I'm including as my "Current Favorite" a game I believe to be an absolute "must play" SE and I'm highly recommending it to those of you that do the same thing I do to find a great "new-to-me" SE game...
Rescue a young girl from the Penumbra Motel. Solve puzzles, unravel a long standing mystery of death and disappearances in this heart-pounding adventure game!
I really enjoyed this game !! I gave the demo a whirl and I was hooked,I had to run over and buy this one !! I loved the story,the music wasn't too bad,the graphics were good,there wasn't a whole lot of running back and forth,when you finished in an area-you were pretty close to done in that area,you didn't really have to go back.. I love the way they threw the service in there,even though the bad guy was a kook,it was still a tribute to our service men and women (thanks to all of them)... All in All I have to say,it was a very fun 5 hours of play,with no hints or skips...Thanks BFG this one was a winner !!!
OK,here goes,I have never done a review before,but I do read TONS & TONS of them when I get ready to purchase a game(I buy a lot of games-I read a lot of reviews) and honestly the reviews are what tipped me over the edge for this stand alone SE...I love CEs and this one dont have a CE,so I thought,hmmmm,lets read about it before I do the trial...I did my studying,then my trial and just as others have said,just a short time into the trial and I stopped and went ahead and bought it !!! I love the story line,the graphics are really well done and the atmosphere is really freaky/spine tingly and the game keeps you moving on at a good, steady pace so you can solve the mystery !! There is a map,but it's not one that "jumps" you around and there is a hint system,but I never use hints,so I can't tell you about it...You have a journal,it helps you follow the story and you find a box that you have to collect items for and it seems to give you things you need in return...I really like this game and totally think everyone should give it a whirl !!! Happy Gaming Everyone !!
