[Icescape 3]

This episode's challenge is about handling aliens with a rifle. I had failed many times before I finally succeeded. It's best to aim NOT directly at the aliens so that one view allows you to target a few of them. Also, use the ration packs wisely or you'll have a hard time dealing with six aliens at the end.

It's sad to know that the this adventurer was captured by some brutal people. Not sure what he would in a cell with an alien accompany. And I totally forget to view the USB evidence as I was in a hurry to escape the cold icy land. :P

[IceScape 2]

Game environment is kinda dim. Occasional blood scenes have created a creepy atmosphere. After communicating with a pilot, I had a bad feeling that I might encounter some strange creatures. This feeling got stronger when I was collecting ammunition along the way. Most battles with the huge spiders were manageable although it could be a shocking experience in the first time. The last battle was hard and I had to fight them again.

Climbing up the ladder manually is a good addition to the game. It enriches one's experience. c: Working on the pressure valves seems stressful. However, once you get the sequence right, it's merely a test of memory and speed.

Visual and sound effects are brilliant!

[Icescape]

Graphics are great. Game play is fun, but the tumbler lock has driven me nuts! I think my psychomotor speed isn't apt enough to beat this game. :/

[Tombscape 2]

Graphics and animation are stunning! The ancient relics are beautifully made.

Game play is less interesting compared to the first episode. It's more about photography, collecting items and solve simple puzzles. Having said that, I was stuck with a serpent puzzle. I tried summing up the two numbers before inputting them into their slots. After watching the walk through, I realised that all I had to do was matching the two numbers. *pff* Then, I couldn't pass the last door with a triangle key and three gems. Later, I found out I forgot to visit a skull cave. :P

Sound effect is fine.

There're various challenges and puzzles in this adventure which keeps the game interesting. It's alright if you fail in the first attempt, you can always try again. c:

Graphics are great! I love the beautiful coins earned from the challenges and other pretty items collected along the way.

Sound effect is good!

[Three Cartoon Chairs Room]

I like the use of a ladder to reach high locations.

Game play is generic. It requires one to collect 11 clue cards in order to unlock a door. Then, assembling a set of strange shapes will give you a car key to escape.

Graphics are alright for a cartoon style.

[Forest Crystals Escape]

I couldn't get pass the first scene without lurking the first five seconds of the walk through. I guess I hadn't explored well enough. Hint: find a plank. Also, I'd replace the green cactus stuff with a crate or a huge stone. Encounter with a dog is lovely. :3

Green scenes are pleasant to look at and indoor ones are alright. Overt and covert safes can be improved in terms of graphic quality.

Bird's sound effect is appropriate.

[Ghostscape 2 - The Cabin]

I like that the story has included my name in it which makes the whole experience unique and personal. Also, the four dairies are interesting for reading. One absurd entry was about a guy and Jenny who walked 60 miles of trails in three days.

Game environment is in "dark" and white. The creepiest part was visiting an old cabin where a ghost man and a talking plastic toy were located. Of course, there was a jump scare when searching one of the tents. What I found strange and unfit to this game was the screen that popped out after collecting the last skull.

Thanks to the walk through, I had looked real hard for the sixth obsidian ball and realised I didn't have to. The cave puzzle requires only five of them.

[Ghostscape]

I am glad to have escaped from this haunted place without having finished all photographic tasks. I missed one orbit and two ghost messages.

Graphics are great and sound effects are awesome! I was calm while exploring the house until I opened a blue wardrobe in one of the bedrooms. I screamed. :|

Diary pages are interesting for reading.

[The Night Before]

I am happy to collect items, solve puzzles, and clean up the mess. However, the rash on the lady's boobs are recurring faster than cancer. I can't do it. :/
