    1 out of 5 stars I think bored teenagers made this   October 2, 2008

    0 out of 3 found this review helpful

    This is the first review I have written but this was so poorly written that I wanted to review it. The mentality of the script if that of a rebellious teen who just discovered foul language. The plot is incredibly boring and the exaggerated characters are annoying. I can't tell you how it ends because my disc froze up and will not continue. I purchased this on Amazon and received a used or pirated copy or the game which was not what I had ordered. I was to get a new game. Overall, Amazon has really blown it with this one.


    5 out of 5 stars Incredible Game!   July 28, 2008
    Adventurer
    This game was more then I expected & very good. The story keeps your interest from the start to finish, there is no guessing where to go or who to talk to next, it is captivating & has unexpected twists, even surprising humor. This adventure does not have a boring moment.

    Impressive and fun gameplay because it has easy navigation & an intelligent story that keeps you wondering what is next. The cutscenes, graphics, design, lighting, characters, voice acting, music, all is fantastic in my opinion. A couple of puzzles were difficult but the rest were not. A good walkthrough is available online for anyone that doesn't want to be stuck on a time consuming puzzle.

    This game is available for Windows Vista. I highly recommend it if a gruesome story & violent scenes are not too disturbing to you. The profanity in this game is rare, however, the nudity, violent acts to women, & gruesome scenes are not, but is all part of the story.



    4 out of 5 stars Great Story   December 12, 2007

    My dad gave me this game after he had played it. It's very challenging, and I loved the story line right from the start.
    The voice acting is a little strange at times, but overall it's a good script.
    The only thing that bothers me is a few of the challenges/activities within the game can't be solved by logic, or information found at the scene. The one I can think of in particularly is picking a lock. Other than that the game is fun and I would recommend it to other people.

    This one is awesome. I recommend it.
    It makes more sense to have played Post Mortem before this, but I doubt that it would make a difference if you haven't. Besides, Post Mortem is not the most fun I thought (but it's not too bad).
    Still Life was REALLY good & I can't wait for the sequel.



    4 out of 5 stars Fantastic adventure game, too bad about the ending...   June 1, 2007

    I really, really enjoyed this game. If you like adventure games and detective games, you should enjoy the gameplay here. This was one of the best 2D point-and-click adventure games I'd played in a long time, and I would have given it 5 stars except for one thing: The Ending.

    The ending of this game is abrupt and does not resolve the plot. It's very frustrating, especially as I was so involved in the mystery and the characters. Apparently, there was meant to be a sequel, but the company went under.

    So, if you love adventure games and want to play a nice one, play this, but be warned.
