Hachja, me and the New Adventure Company/THQ Nordic-so far I have rarely been disappointed ...
Overclocked I played anno domini before I jumped on the "NAC train" with Moment of Silence and Black Mirror. This was followed by other Games but that's on another Page ...
The Game is quite gloomy (no Wonder: On the one Hand it somehow never stops raining, the Institution has only five Patients-those in whose Past you have to dive, the Flashbacks refer more and more deeply to a dark Background and last In The end, the Life of the Main Protagonist remains, who seems to be travelling privately and professionally on a Road into the Abyss) and is very interesting by working with Flashbacks to the events surrounding the "Crazy."
Clearly the Graphics are no longer as hip as today etc pp, but since the Game was released in 2008 this is unlikely To count towards relevant Criticisms.
Definitely a nice Adventure-not just for in between because you have to connect the Tape Recordings with the Patients in order to dig up more Memories. The more Memories you create, the more you have to concentrate on which memory you have to play to whom in order to awaken more Memories ...

David McNamara, a forensic Psychiatrist who has been haunted by inexplicable choleric Outbursts since working as a US Army Combat Psychiatrist, is being Summoned to New York as a Specialist in forensic Psychiatry. At Staten Island's forensic Hospital, he is said to be dealing with five young People who have been found disoriented, frightened, screaming and scattered across the New York Metropolitan area without Memory. In cautious Sessions, Dave begins to explore the Memories of young People.
The Special Thing: The Player not only slips into the Role of Dave McNamara, who conducts his Examinations in the Present, but also takes on the Role of the five Patients again and again in Flashbacks. The Memories McNamara brings to Light are explored so playfully, chronologically backwards. The further he progresses in the Game, the deeper he pushes into the Past-and makes scary Discoveries ...
FEATURES:-The new Adventure from the Creators of the Bestseller "The Moment of Silence"-Deadly High tension in a disturbing Psychological thriller-Hochbrisante Story, chronologically inversely told-6 playable characters-45 highly detailed And lovingly animated Locations.
A very successful 2008 point. One is sent by the Creators of THE HOUSE OF TALES (The Monent of Silence) into a simultaneously captivating Psychological Thriller. Very nice he finally made it on Steam. An emotional Rollercoaster and really worth playing.
