But it does not just play with the cliches we have (though no nudity in case you were wondering, but a lot of violence and death if that helps or appalls you), it builds on them and it tells quite the interesting story. A story you participate in, a story you actually play. And you play multiple characters and you have to make sure they all survive ... or if you are mad I reckon, make sure everyone dies - which by the way isn't as easy as it may sound.
I played this so many times and do not regret I did. This is not for everyone of course ... you have to love story game telling with little to no action. Yes you get FMV here, but you can control and move the characters too at certain points of the story. A rich story that takes breaks from time to time to give you psychological tests ... from a psychiatrist ... there is so much here ... so much story, so many neat and wicked twists ... I love it! I know the rating gave it away, yes?
