What players say
Mindblowing slow burn. Adam Brown gives a compelling performance in an atmospheric (though anacronistic for assumedly budget reasons) FMV. No skill required, just buckle in for two nights of horror.
I played this originally on the PSN, but now I've played it here too. Recommended despite its shortness. It plays about as you'd expect. A couple of choices about where to go, what door you go through. Ultimately not much choice really. Game is very linear, so if you miss a figurine pickup often it'll mean you have to start a new game to try for it again. There are two endings, but you can do all achievements in one...
Sad and suspenseful. Decent FMV with solid acting. I was not prepared for the disturbing twist ending.
