Does anyone know anything about this game?

The Vanishing of Ethan Carter was released in late 2014 and quite a few Gameboomers played it around that time. You can probably find some old threads with a search. Here is the thread where we announced gremlin's review.

I liked it.

I loved this game too and keep hoping the developers will release another game.

I loved it! I think it's worth it. It is amazing eye candy too!

I played quite a lot of the game but have yet to get back and finish it. Although I fully intend to
[Just really disliked the save system but apart from that thought it was excellent.]

Me, too, Mad. I never finished it, although it was beautifully rendered.
