I started playing this game yesterday and wow it is the most interesting adv. game I have played in a while. It's literally got me glued to my seat.
After being bored to death with Everlight and Outcry I was wondering if I would ever find a new adventure game that I would enjoy. Well I finally did.
After I finish it I will start Next Life and then I will be caught up with all the adventure games I bought over the last 3 years and never played. It's really hard to get into adventure games after you have played action/adventure & shooters. They are just so much more exciting. I find most of todays adventure games more annoying than enjoyable. But I am sure it is just me, cause it appears adventure games are getting more popular than they were a few years ago, and there are surely plenty coming out.
Anyway I hope Next Life is as exciting as Overclocked. I need a few more good ones to boost my liking again.

That's great that you're enjoying yourself, JB!

JohnBoy,
Glad to see you're still playing. All the shooting I do is for real, my bow and arrows, hand weapons, so it's always been adventures for me. I say Overclocked on sale so will take your advise and check it out.

Becky, hope you been well. Good to see you here again.

Charlotte, its that good.

Overclocked was one of the best games I've played in a long time - like you I just couldn't put the game down.

I want more, just like it.

JohnBoy, I loved Overclocked, too. What a great game! Glad you are enjoying it. Have you played The Moment of Silence, which is also by House of Tales?

I loved Next Life, too, in spite of some arcade sequences I didn't care for. But since you play that type of game, you will probably not mind them at all. I thought the game had a very intriguing story and premise. Hope you have a great time with that one as well.

I loved the Moment of Silence. It was one of my favorites at that time.

Thanks JohnBoy - after reading about this, and all the posts, I have just ordered it at amazon uk

I'm playing Overclocked right now and liking what I see so far. What a coincidence.

John, Its really a interesting game. Great story and using the PDA to get info from the patients was a clever idea. I am half way through and still glued to my seat. I just hope the ending isn't as disappointing as the reviews have stated.

Thoroughly enjoyed this game the story had me hooked all the way through.

I am really looking forward to the house of tales new game 15 days wich should be out shortly.

I did hear though that the house of tales are no more and that Tobias and Martin have parted ways, I hope this is not true.

How many recent games compare with "Moment" and "Overclocked?"

Loved Overclocked from beginning to end. Especially the way the story unfolds.

Just finished the game. I would rank it in my top 5 favorites of all time. I got a sick feeling with but I got over it.

A terrific game - I was so driven to see the conclusion that I cheated horribly all the way through and followed the walkthrough exclusively, like reading a riveting thriller. There were several poignant moments which affected me and that's a sign that I'm really involved in the story.

A vastly underestimated and largely unpublicised game!

I hated that scene too, JohnBoy.

I'm replaying the game right now, but haven't reached that point yet.

JohnBoy, Thanks for this post. I bought Overclocked a couple of years ago but I didn't play it. After buying it, I read that it was very dark and disturbing, so that kind of put me off. Sounds like I better get to it!

gatsbygirl... I had a similar experience.
Bought this awhile ago at the second hand store, and promptly forgot I owned it.
I must play it now, sounds perfect for the mood I'm in after being disappointed with the last couple full fledged adventures I purchased.
(I kinda like dark and disturbing, as long as it's a good story!)
Thanks fellow GB's for reminding me that I had something great already sitting on the shelf! Loading it up now...

I finished this game two months ago,I think those little child will never like Overclocked,because this is a game designed for those adult male.Every man will meet
too many bothered things,family problems,financial problems，sentiment problems，too much.

Good to hear such a glowing report. I've just finished Black Mirror 2 (great), Belief & Betrayal (not bad I suppose, but glad I'll never have to hear "Maybe if I try with this ... or I could try with that ... no, sorry, I can't do it!" again), and have had Overclocked for months which I'll be starting over the weekend.
