KHDelBoy Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 ....and I'm grateful that I didn't buy it full price! It's less than £4 at the UK PSN Store via the Flash Sale. Remember the FMV games from the 90s? It's pretty like that with this game. Controls is absolutely minimal at best. The saving grace is the plot, I suppose.

djb5f Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Worth $6? It is on sale now. FMV games interest me and I bought Late Shift and Erica. Loved Heavy Rain which has a little more gameplay. Horror is not my typical genre. Does this game work for people who like thrillers but not necessarily gruesome horror fare? I can watch movies like Halloween, etc. fine, just not looking for over the top gore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And didn't think it was that gruesome. Seen far worse in other games/movies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, pretty sure I am going to get it. Can’t knock $6 for this, Late Shift (Bought on sale recently), or Erica (also on sale now). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnGEIHisPANo Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 I actually liked the story and it's one of the best for me. Controllers and interaction suck but this is a FMV game so no biggies there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick6146 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 IMO, This game has a weaker plot than the others WI games I played. If i have to rank the ones i played it would be Erica > Late Shift > Shapeshifting Detective > The Complex > the bunker, plot wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That probably says a lot about Wales Interactive, considering Erica wasn't one of theirs Edited December 23, 2021 by Stevieboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ResiGamer_28 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 The trophy for nurse ie collecting the dolls is missable. I have to eventually when I can be arsed, replay the whole game to get that trophy and the plat. Its a good run though though, I also recommend late shift if you like FMV games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe PS store recommendation? Anyway, gotta manage expectations for these FMV games.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erica and Telling Lies are still the gold standard in this genre for me, though I've played very few of these FMV games. The Bunker has a very good story but you won't realise how good it is until the end. Before then you'll have to suffer through the boring "gameplay" and illusion of choice/failure. Late Shift had a similar problem of illusion of choice/failure but at least the dialogue options made it fun as you were shaping your character's personality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was to pick a couple I'd say Bloodshore & Dark Nights with Poe & Monroe are worth playing. Maybe Simulacra. (Erica is still the standard though). Can't remember if The Complex was good or not. My least favourites were Five Dates & 'Who pressed mute on Uncle Marcus?' Nothing specific to pick at just bit meh. There's a few others like Night book, I Saw Black Clouds & She See's Red. But I can't remember enough to mention anything. I'll check them out, thanks. I have The Complex on my wishlist but if you can't remember if it was good or not that means it was meh at best! I'm also interested in the Shapeshifting Detective. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
