 I think bored teenagers made this October 2, 2008

This is the first review I have written but this was so poorly written that I wanted to review it. The mentality of the script if that of a rebellious teen who just discovered foul language. The plot is incredibly boring and the exaggerated characters are annoying. I can't tell you how it ends because my disc froze up and will not continue. I purchased this on Amazon and received a used or pirated copy or the game which was not what I had ordered. I was to get a new game. Overall, Amazon has really blown it with this one.
 Incredible Game! July 28, 2008
Adventurer
This game was more then I expected & very good. The story keeps your interest from the start to finish, there is no guessing where to go or who to talk to next, it is captivating & has unexpected twists, even surprising humor. This adventure does not have a boring moment.
Impressive and fun gameplay because it has easy navigation & an intelligent story that keeps you wondering what is next. The cutscenes, graphics, design, lighting, characters, voice acting, music, all is fantastic in my opinion. A couple of puzzles were difficult but the rest were not. A good walkthrough is available online for anyone that doesn't want to be stuck on a time consuming puzzle.
This game is available for Windows Vista. I highly recommend it if a gruesome story & violent scenes are not too disturbing to you. The profanity in this game is rare, however, the nudity, violent acts to women, & gruesome scenes are not, but is all part of the story.
Great Story December 12, 2007

My dad gave me this game after he had played it. It's very challenging, and I loved the story line right from the start.
The voice acting is a little strange at times, but overall it's a good script.
The only thing that bothers me is a few of the challenges/activities within the game can't be solved by logic, or information found at the scene. The one I can think of in particularly is picking a lock. Other than that the game is fun and I would recommend it to other people.
Awesome December 7, 2007

This one is awesome. I recommend it.
It makes more sense to have played Post Mortem before this, but I doubt that it would make a difference if you haven't. Besides, Post Mortem is not the most fun I thought (but it's not too bad).
Still Life was REALLY good & I can't wait for the sequel.
Fantastic adventure game, too bad about the ending... June 1, 2007

I really, really enjoyed this game. If you like adventure games and detective games, you should enjoy the gameplay here. This was one of the best 2D point-and-click adventure games I'd played in a long time, and I would have given it 5 stars except for one thing: The Ending.
The ending of this game is abrupt and does not resolve the plot. It's very frustrating, especially as I was so involved in the mystery and the characters. Apparently, there was meant to be a sequel, but the company went under.
So, if you love adventure games and want to play a nice one, play this, but be warned.
