Well I finished this game and overall I really liked it. I wasn't too pleased with chapter 8 running through several mazes got a little tedious and I used the Youtube walkthrough on a step by step basis to get through.
I thought the storyline was great and so Jane Jensen. The music was perfect for the game and doing the magic tricks was a nice touch once I figured them out.
The Graphics were less than I expected from a Jane Jensen game but not so bad that it detracted from my enjoyment. The cut scenes were basically art drawings where one would expect FMV from Jane Jensen.
Overall I enjoyed this game immensely.

I thought the music was perfect also....I know it is Jane's husband that composes the music for her games....I was wondering if he also did the music for "Outcry" as it is remeniscent of that type of music?

Sparkle one that I just finished that I really enjoyed is Alter Ego. It is dark and mysterious like Gray Matter however it has an unusual ending.
I'm now playing Treasure Island and like it as well.

Oh no, I hate mazes and have no sense of direction. I still get lost in a Guild Wars mission I've played half a dozen times (I have lots of characters).

I am not a maze fan but I am such a fan of Jane Jensen that this is a must have for me.
It's nice to be important but it is much more important to be nice.

I am playing the Demo, I normally adjust the sound so the music plays not loud. The Demos has the feature for adjusting sounds, however even if I put the music volume it completely to the left it doesn't change the volume at all and covers the dialog. Is it the same in the play? I am planning to buy it as soon as it is available, the 22nd, I believe.

Thanks, oldman.... For some reason after playing the demo this game did not grab me like Tale of A Hero... For me <Grafics> are everything,...This is 2011 I am hoping that the Big Game developers Start using better game developing engines...Cause they want enough money as it is......We should expect better graphics, and that goes for independent developers also... This is my opinion...So please don't beat me up on what you think...
