Overall pretty decent game. Scary movies and the like do not normally effect me but I found myself having chills and mild panic attacks when I would hear noises or even when reading text that someone was in the room with me. I spent a lot of time searching for food because the water source was easy to navigate to in the dark. I felt the character got tired to fast, needed food/water to often. In reality you could go a few days without water and around a month without food. But your method seemed to fit well with the game. Although I think the game play could of been tweaked for more realism.
Overall the atmosphere was very well done. I felt like I was truly alone and I answered the door when I heard knocks just because I didn't want poor Sam living the rest of his life with no contact. Even if his only contact was with a creepy hooded fellow. I did manage to get the good ending even though I was warned not to trust the hooded person.
A couple other gripes are that I did not like being hit with a wall of text when the game begin. As a game designer I know the best way to introduce instructions is gradually during game play or by teaching the players within the game itself. It just felt like I was sat down and told to remember all of this.
Story wise a simple cinematic with Sam writing in his journal or something would of been a lot better then being told whats been happening at this point.

Overall it was pretty great! But I know it could be a lot better and am looking forward to a sequel. Take into account my suggestions and please adapt for a second.

Hope my review helped.

Thanks for the review!

Yep, a few friends of mine tried the game and said the same. The Tutorial Cinematic and the Intro Cinematic was a bit too much and I will definitely take that into account when making the sequel. I like your suggestion with the journal, something to integrate in the sequel maybe to discuss previous events and such.

Thanks again!

GREAT GAME

Very great game! I hope to see more titles like this from Mofunzone.

Thank you sir! We'll try to deliver similar games I promise!

Awesome!

I played the original game and I thought it was pretty great game. But with the increased quality of the graphics it really tops the charts as one of the most amazing flash games I have ever seen. Outstanding art, programming to perfection and a very addictive game design.

Thanks :D

WOW

The other games in the competition must of really sucked, because this was nothing special..
You should of used some blurr effects for the background and maybe a velocity code to make the game feel more intense.
Uhh 4 out of 10, just wasnt appealing to me.
