I am still playing it very slowly as I don't want to end it. I agree that this is one of the best adventure game to come along in a while.

I did too, johnboy. He couldn't keep himself from helping someone else, even though he felt personally devastated. I thought it really showed how he grew through reaching out to another.

I can't believe that PC Gamer gave it a review score of 14%! I loved it! Rusty

I never look at PC Gamer ratings or reviews, Rusty. They only like action games. I felt the same way about Peter Wright! I'd sure like to have a neighbor like him. Melanie

Rusty, I just laughed and laughed when I read that review. Basically, everything they said that they didn't like were things that made an adventure game a different genre. Melanie, I think you're right. Not because of the rating, but because of what was said putting the game down.

Hi nickie! I just shook my head while reading that review. I actually feel sorry for those kind of reviewers. Poor misguided folks. Rusty

Not because of the rating, but because of what was said putting the game down. I laugh when I read these reviews also. They always hate all the things that make a good adventure game. I guess it might help to read their reviews if you go on the assumption that whichever game they hate the most will be the best adventure game. Melanie

I'm thinking about buying this game. Is there any fighting, shooting, etc. in it? If so, a lot or just a little? It's just that I don't like those kinds of games.
Thanks.
