I'm quite the fan of Wales Interactive and felt as the game is recent and mixed on reviews i'd add to the pile of yes votes.
One playthrough so far, me and the other half really enjoyed it. Took about 65 minutes with 10 of those minutes getting a wasp out of the room.
Acting decent, well choreographed fight scenes, the characters are solid but predictable, effects mostly good but some of the green screen strangely takes me back to the 90's heyday of FMV (I love it for things like this though, whether the intention was to be "so bad it's good" I can't quite tell, this goes for other aspects of the game too). Really liked the prosthetics in one scene which I won't detail but it sort of ties in with one of the above points. Even a few laughs to be had too with some amusing parts to the script at times.
It does feel like the ending wasn't in mind when the theme was first conceived, like they started with no clear idea of where it was going to end, or how it was going to get there. I don't mean this in overly negative way, let's face it how many FMV games have done the same or at least given the impression they were written in that way?!
I am quite surprised at the harshness of criticism though, especially from some of the people posting who are fans of WI games or FMV as a genre.
I look forward to testing out other outcomes from the route my story took, even if it is as on-rails as claimed I don't see anything at this point that will disappoint me that wouldn't have disappointed me already.
I nearly didn't buy this due to reviews but glad I did now. Got a nice deal on it under "complete my collection" so I advise to save more than the 10% off at the moment if you already own full catalogue of their games. If you usually love these games, ignore the good and bad reviews and go in open minded to form your own opinion as you might well enjoy it like many have already.
