I picked it up but I have yet to fire it up.

I'm pretty excited, I have high hopes.

I've been watching this, I'm going to wait for a few reviews from real people before pulling the trigger.

I picked it up for like $10-12 as it seemed interesting and that amount was inconsequential... I'll give it a try this weekend.

I've heard that the voice acting and writing are both completely bizarre, but that it's otherwise a competent adventure. I'm interested in trying it out.

So, I got to play through this for a bit and enjoyed so far. It's great if you like adventure games. This felt like The Longest Journey combined with a nice mix of Remember Me's memory remixes (which I loved and wished they had a lot more of those).

I can see why some people might complain about the dialogue... it's not bad, it's just that the main character is a teenager and episode 1 is centered around teenagers in a prestigious school. That, at times, cringe-worthy dialogue is exactly as it should be.

I'll probably wait until all episodes are released to finish it all in one shot, but I feel that this is easily worth the $10 if the rest of the episodes will be the same or better. I'd recommend it if you're a fan of games like The Longest Journey.

I picked up the 5 Episodes. Haven't played it, yet. I'm also probably going to pull the trigger on The Vanishing of Ethan Carter.
