Please post here and then RebKean will get the game to you. If you do not post here to claim your prize within 72 hours a runner up will be named.

You can purchase the game here. We are also giving away 3 copies of the game, courtesy of Frostlind Games. To enter, please post here and STATE YOU ARE IN!

I will announce the winners shortly thereafter. If you do not claim your code within 72 hours, a runner up will be given your code. It is up to you to come back and see if you won! Rebecca Carlson is travelling to her old home town in search for answers. Recently, a childhood friend of hers died in what appeared to be an accident, and Rebecca was mentioned in the will. She received the keys to the friend’s apartment, and a short note. It said: ”Follow in my footsteps”. Without knowing anything more than that, Rebecca now has to try and figure out what it’s all about, and why her friend had been so secretive. Silent Footsteps is a point ’n’ click adventure game made with real photographs. It’s 100% mouse driven and has 100 save slots, which you can use at any time. There’s a quick tutorial at the start of the game, and an in-game journal that will guide you, if you should need any help. The game takes place in Sweden, but all dialogues are in English, and have optional subtitles. The game contains no graphic violence or swearing. It has no action sequences, and is suitable for ages 15 and up. Congrats to RebKean on her release and hope to see many more! Happy Gaming! Ana

Thank you so much Marian! I knew from the start that I really wanted to see it through. However, without Mikael, that would never have happened. I owe him. And also thanks to Ana of course. I'm a bit nervous, so if I sound strange at any time, that's the reason ...

Don't want to spam the thread with comments on every comment. You will probably get tired of me that way. But I read everything, and I am very grateful for all kind words. And remember to check your spam-folder if you think it's taking too long for me to send you a reply. Apart from me sleeping, I'm always close to a computer, so it shouldn't take long. When do I sleep then, you wonder? You'll need a time zone map for that, but as I learned from speaking with Ana, I'm 7 hours ahead of Chicago.

Motiko: I think Profound Red was released in January, so 7 months. Seems like a good deal, but you never know what happens. Sometimes it's necessary to wait for the right season to take pictures you need. Mad: Right? Hehe.

Congratulations to the winners from me as well, this was fun. Thanks Ana for taking care of it. I haven't done this before obviously, but when the winners post here, I will then send a download link to the address that they have on their profile page. So make sure it's accurate. oldbroad, I'll see you later today then.

Well a genuine Carol Reed would be the best, don't you think ?? [I'm not sure Mikael will want too many folk cloning his creation ] So I'm hoping he is busily beavering away on HIS next treat for us all

It is Marian. And I'm very happy to be a part of it. I was very nervous the first time I recorded my voice, but the coolness of being in an adventure game took over, so now I just love it. (OK, I'm a little nervous each time, but I guess that's a good thing.)

What! I though that thing worked! Will look into it, thanks.
EDIT. Looked into it, and don't really understand it yet, have to consult the master. YOu see, if you do what you right away, it works fine, but if you wait a while, it happens as you describe it. So something's wrong somewhere. Very glad you found it though, I don't want any errors obviously. =)

When I play a Carol Reed game, I don't really stop until I'm finished, which will of course affect how long it feels. But I'm not the kind of person that can take long breaks. I get too excited. It's not easy to estimate length, and perhaps the story would feel very drawn out if it was, say double it's current length? I don't know. But yeah, as it is now, it's either a longer game, and further apart or the other way around. But I totally understand. I want them longer as well! Those that have commented have been very nice, and that ensures that I want to continue. Not that everything is great, but I'm so very happy that many of you want more. I'm in a planning phase right now, and also I take some pictures of course. And like I've said in other posts, I can guarantee that the orientation will be like in Mikael's games from now on. 4 directions to look almost everywhere. So the movement should be easier, and more familiar. Thanks again!

I just have to ask... How can one wish for a longer game I really liked it but I wish it were longer.
When they use... I liked the in-game hint system and the video walkthrough which helped me through without missing anything important.
Now I don't question anyone if they choose to use Hints or Walkthroughs in any form as it is their choice and they are available but the game is longer without using them. Just saying.

Well............... While I am enjoying a game sometimes I want it to go on . You are correct about using hints and walkthroughs. But I really get so frustrated when I know I have missed something and can't figure something out. This happens to me a lot of times playing Nancy Drew games which I always end up having to ask for a saved game. I am one of those people who likes to finish a game. There are a few adventure games where I had just given up and that makes me crazy. So I definitely need hints and walkthroughs.

Hi Penny
Don't get me wrong and I meant no disrespect. I wasn't questioning the virtues of using Walkthroughs, Hints or the right to use them, I was really confused as to how one could wish for a longer game when it is. I also agree with you on when you are really enjoying a game you don't ever want it to end.

I also agree with you on when you are really enjoying a game you don't ever want it to end. No problem! But you pointed out to me something that I hadn't thought of. Using the hint system made the game really easy to follow and of course it would shorten a game. When I think of the time and effort the game developers put into a game it really is impressive. Something that I wouldn't have the least idea how to do. The Carol Reed series and this game require a lot of photography which would take a long time to achieve what they want for a game and I certainly do appreciate their efforts. I think they do a wonderful job.

I wanted to add something important. Today it happened again that the email address I got from PayPay was outdated or not working for any other reason. It's very important that you check and make sure the email on your PayPayl account is accurate. There is no possible way for me to get in touch with a buyer if the email is not valid. I added that to the website as well. EDIT. Perhaps the title of this thread needs to be edited so no one thinks it's a new giveaway or something? Can I do that myself?
