Just a question and not a nit-pic since I haven't played the game; after looking at the screen shots, is most everything in black and white or gray shades with a little color here and there. If it is then guess I'd have to nit-pic that. Yes, the game is in black & white with occasional splashes of colour on flowers and suchlike. It's very effective and doesn't detract from the game at all.

Someone (I forget who) posted in a previous thread that they dream that way -- that things can be all black-and-white except for certain objects that stand out because they're in blazing color. Maybe the developer dreams that way too, and that was why he chose to do the game that way.

Thank you much for the replies. The premise of the game sounds good but I dream in bright techno-color so guess that's how I like to see my games.

I love it. I want to play & play & play and for the game never to end. I love the black & white with the odd splash of colour, love the characters, the spooky atmosphere, the wandering around scared in the dark, I love the lot. Hope there will be a follow up game thats just as great.

I need to start by saying all in all I love this game. However between the walkie talkie glitch and my own stupidity I have messed myself up. I want to make everyone aware of my situation so the same thing doesn't happen to you. It all started when I entered the Nightmare Room in the Old Net House. I found the hidden key and used it to open the desk drawer. After opening the drawer, the door slammed behind me and locked. I attempted to use my wakie talkie to contact Lucy. At the time I was unaware of the glitch and was upset when it sent me back to the outside of the Old Net House. I figured it was a glitch and checked a walkthrough. Sure enough it said you have to check the door first then use the walkie talkie. I attempted to do it all over again and saved my game before entering the Nightmare Room in case it happened again. I entered the room and attempted to find the key, however since I had already found it once, it was no longer there and the desk drawer was locked again. I am now stuck in the room and cannot do anything. I emailed GotGameEntertainment to see if they can help me, but god knows how long it will take to hear from them. Don't be stupid like me and save your game after this happens.

I have installed the patch, but it seems to be too late now. I cannot get the key to reopen the drawer.

No, I just kept overwriting my current game. I didn't expect anything like this to happen.

Oh....I'm afraid that is never a good idea. Sorry... Post in hints and they can probably send you a saved game. Ana

Hello, all! Well...I loved both 'Darkfall' games, loved 'Barrow Hill', loved 'Scratches'. I'm about three to four hours into this game, and...well...I'm just not over the moon about it. Don't get me wrong, I'm enjoying it, but I don't find myself absolutely excited to get back to it. So far, it's OK...maybe, as I get more into the story, things will turn for me (at least, I hope so...). But for now, I find myself simply waiting for the big "WOW! WHAT A GAME!" epiphany to hit me....
