Was HEAVILY excited about this game when I bought it.. Streamed the whole game and I kid you not I yawned so many times while playing this game..
Very disappointing experience because I had such HIGH expectations for this game but was left with garbage.

I hate the MC with a passion. I understand that it's a traumatic experience, but come on. At least man up a little bit.
There is also a very big lack of choices. At this point you just could have made a mini movie....

Not so scary, not so videogame, but fine for the evening
Not really a game
*Completed on a PS5.
Great little FMV game. It's very, very linear but I enjoyed the two hours it took to finish it. It tells a horrible post-nuclear bunker story about a man named John who is the last living resident of the bunker.
This game is very simple and largely consists of navigating a cursor and clicking on interactables to progress the story forward. I have a couple of qualms with how this is done; there are QTE's that are very urgent but the cursor moves really slowly. If you're even a touch too far away from the button you have to press with the cursor, you're basically guaranteed to fail. I don't know why this couldn't have been a more traditional QTE with a specific button press. The other qualm is that the cursor is ever present and can kinda get in the way/exist as a distraction atop the footage in scenes that don't require any input from you as the player.
That's it for the review! If you're interested in FMV titles give this one a go. I managed to pick it up for $5 and I'd consider that a steal.

What a solid homage to 90s FMV games! While the story didn't quite resonate with me like some of my old favorites, I appreciated the attention to little details like the way the main character stands and moves when you move the cursor, just like, for example, the way Curtis Craig does in Phantasmagoria: A Puzzle of Flesh. A great throwback, for sure.
Interessante o jogo. História boa.

Great FMV game with a good story and interesting endings. The QTEs weren't that good, kinda pointless really, but otherwise I was really happy with this game.
The actors did really well in portraying the story and acting out the scenes, I was especially a big fan of the main protagonist's actor and the way he sold the anxiety of the main character.
Only criticism I have of the game is that the price isn't that great for it, above 10 euros for just above 2 hours of content doesn't seem all that good to me. I also would have wished there were some kind of end credit scene where we learned what happened to the main character.
Otherwise this game is going to my recommendations list!

This has way more interactivity than Wales’ other FMV games but it’s also WAY more linear. Clearly produced on a low budget but the acting is pretty good and the final plot twist genuinely got me. Not bad for a casual 2 hours on a lazy Sunday.
The key pad puzzle was garbage though. On the Steam Deck’s display I couldn’t tell what the fourth number was and had to look it up.

The acting and main plot of this FMV adventure is fine but its all so linear, short and easy to the point where you feel like you could have watched a movie and had the exact same experience but without the menu clunk.
