Just finish playing this game and i'm not sure if i liked it or not... It was a nice point and click adventure game from that point of view with a lot of pick up items. Not difficult at all... I wasn't stuck at all... From the other hand this game was full of cliches... I knew the ending from the middle of the game and the story was not surprising at all... and there were a lot of 4 letter words in it (at least in english version)...
I'm not sure what to thing about it...

I think they wanted to make a Still Life look-alike but they didn't have a clue why that was such a good game!

I have preordered this one. Not too keen on a lot of swearing in games but its good to know I may not get stuck.


When in doubt, cuddle a catcatrub

This game is woth your time if you just look away from the clichés, and I had a good time playing it be cause it looked a little like still life.


Humaity isn´t perfect and will never create anything perfect. But if our goal is ´´perfection´´ then at least we´ll do our best.

When was the English version released? I didn't think there was one yet?


I've seen God, and his name is iPad. Let us pray
yes, I do use my Hairbrush as a Microphone and Dance around in my Underwear. Thank you very much.

I just started playing it and it's not bad until now! I like the music and the mystery that hides around the corners of New York! Well let's not compare it to Still Life because it's totally a different game this one!


....set the controls for the heart of the sun....

Volkana -- I haven't seen a release date for the US yet. Do you know who the US publisher will be?

I'm not sure what to thing about it... )???

It looks like City Interactive mentioned in that link is a Polish publisher. I don't think they've announced a US publisher yet, but I could have missed it.

Volkana -- did the Greek version come with both English and Greek languages as an option?

I thought it was for US release because they had the US flag beside the date...

No Becky just English

Games are now published in so many countries (and sometimes in English in countries that don't have English as their first language) that it is getting very frustrating to keep track of everything.

I think we need someone full time just to do that! lol

The Polish version is English spoken, but the screen texts are Polish.

So the one i've played must be the English version because it had both voice and texts in English... Nice...

English but released in the country of Greece). Volkana is lucky because a ton of games in English get released in Greece first through European publishers.

Volkana, how long was the game?
