Just finished my first play through and wow! I found it truly gripping and scarier than any horror movie Iv watched lately. If you are thinking about getting it, don't think just go for it. Also the best graphics ever on any game I have played. If you enjoyed the walking dead or everyone's gone to the rapture then you will love it, as its not a fast paced shooter or the likes. It also kind of reminded me of the old resident evil games. A work of art!!

I've just started playing this today, just done about 2-3 hours. I'm up to chapter 4 and just cut back to the cabin where Mike and Jess were.

So far, it's brilliant. Very gripping and I love the fact that it's not a shooter and is very story based. Few jumps so far but nothing major biggrin

Wouldn't say it's the best graphics I have EVER seen, but they are up there with the best. I can't wait to continue the story!

After half way it really gets going. Huge twists and fke d up, just superb. I ended up saving Emily and Sam, but apparently they can all be saved if you play the game in a certain way.

Obviously everyone's game will be different, depending on your choices. I recommend lights off and s surround sound.

Got the surround sound bit, you can forget lights off though laugh

I completed my first play through of this game and could only save Emily and Sam too. But definitely one to get. Very professionally put together and a far deeper story than I initially thought it was going to have.

I played it on a 50" plasma with lights out and 5.1 surround headphones. Very jumpy in places and tense, and oportunities to change the course of the game at so many places in the story that re-play is guaranteed.

A living breathing Teen Horror flick but one you actually drive from the first chapter. I like the way it plays as a movie. Definitely going to be a cult game.

Completed it last night. I saved Sam, Matt, Jess, Emily and Ashley. Could've saved Mike very easily but made a stupid decision, same with Chris. Oh well!

Very short game, but the entire way through was absolutely incredible. Wish I could erase the game from memory and do it again! Highly recommend this game!

I'm not interested in this game as Horror isn't for me, but probably worth spoilering a fair bit of this?

I don't play horrors but this was awesome!

Nothing has been spoilers, you know from the get go that anybody can live or die, so us mentioning who we saved is simply a personal game choice and not a spoiler.

I'm on my second go at it, making different choices this time but just lost matt. The game has changed a good few times already. I managed to to get some of Jessica's clothes off this time!! Also Iv found quite a few more items this time round. I'm determined to save as many as possible this time!

I am thinking of getting a PS4 for this game (and Everyone's Gone to the Rapture)

It looks fantastic!

Parts of it reminded me of the books that went something like. To go to the cellar turn to page 37. To go to the study turn to page 91.

I thought it was a very well put together game and I really hope they do more in this style.

I like it too, although it's not as fantastic as I thought, as I am always crap at QTE, and I hate them! Making a bad decision because I didn't press a button in time is like going back to Sonic the Hedgehog!

Just finished my first playthrough and I'm fuming with myself. I played the game as I would have if it was me in that situation and I got to the final choice having only lost matt and boom, lost everyone except Sam Chris and jess in one instance, absolutely fuming with myself. Totally thought everyone would understand what was going to happen, Chris seemed to be smart enough -_- oh well. I'll replay that chapter when I've calmed down.

Loved the game however

Im sorry but this made me laugh a lot. I havent played it but have watched a YouTube walkthrough. I cant picture losing so many characters in one go like that.

That's why I'm so annoyed with myself, I stupidly assumed all the characters where on the same page -_-
