Ratings and reviews

A very well put together story "game". It's a very sophisticated text-based investigator game. There's no action, and the hardest part of the game is switching back and forth between screens to input information to advance which is made easier if you just grab a pen and paper. Also, it's one set storyline. No alternate endings or decision-based scenes. The story itself is great, but if you're looking for some sort of gameplay, I wouldn't spend the money. Just wasn't what I expected.

Oh man, what can I say? This was amazing! Definitely unnerving, what with the glitches and all. The concept of anything that holds an image of an Angel becomes an Angel itself makes for a brilliant use of the game taking place on a "found phone". Really felt the tension at the end there. Hats off to the developers, the actors, and the composer for such great music, especially the theme! If you guys are able, make more in this style. We'll done guys, brilliant! And remember: Don't Blink

Oh. My. (Time)LORD(S)!!!!! Even just PLAYING this game, my heart was pounding and I was trying DESPERATELY to NOT BLINK!!! I lost track of time (pun DEFO INTENDED) for 8 solid hours & played through the entirety of the first round. At least, I hope it was only round one - and it hinted at there being more at the end there - because I'll be quite disappointed if there's nothing left to do with it. Either way, this was a fantastic game! I'd give 500 stars if I could, and absolutely recommend!
