Nightmare Frames

Very solid horror point and click, with more of a focus on narrative than puzzles. The translation to English leaves some of the dialogue a little stilted, but that doesn't take away from the overall vibe. The slow first act is more than made up for by a fantastic second act that drips with atmosphere. If you're into horror movies, you'll find even more to enjoy here.

A surprisingly good point & click adventure game. Especially if you like dark and gruesome stories. It starts fairly mundane, but the second half is tremendous. It is fairly easy and story driven, but with enough puzzles to make you think a bit. There was only one puzzle that was a headscratcher (and to be honest kinda nonsensical), but overall a smooth and linear experience. No need for spoilers, but if you like the genre, I think you will enjoy this one.

It's not often I finish a game with a grin on my face, but this one delivered so hard that I couldn't help it. Story was great all the way through. The nods to all things horror cinema were fun and never seemed to overstay their welcome. I played with headphones and really enjoyed how much the audio work brought to the atmosphere. It's not a difficult point and click game by any means and is just the right length. As soon as I beat it, I bought the next game, An English Haunting.

This is a really enjoyable horror adventure. The story is very interesting and suspenseful. The artwork is great, especially the character portraits. The writing is witty and detailed in the descriptions. The music is fittingly 80s and quite good. It got considerably darker and gorier than I was anticipating, so if you are sensitive to that, beware. Out of the three Postmodern Adventures titles, I rate it on par with Dark Rites of Arkham, but with a very different vibe. Wholeheartedly recommended!

Instant classic! <3 We're living in a horror renaissance, and this was an immersive and lovingly crafted piece of art. I convinced myself there was voice acting (there's not, only a little bit of voice in music / radio / tv) because the characters are so well developed. I also really dug the way that object inspection writing was done, giving you a little history Alan couldn't know but that makes the experience feel so much more rich for the player. I agree that it feels a little more like a visual novel due to the simplicity of the puzzles, but that didn't bother me. The writing was plenty enjoyable! Only one puzzle stumped me and I think there was a clue I overlooked when trying to figure it out.

Wonderful little point and click adventure - well written, great setting. Recommended.
