short little story, nice for calming game experience
This is a relaxing little game and very beautiful graphics and a good story. More of a laid back detective game than horror. I really enjoyed it!
Игра «Scorch» — это увлекательная аркада с элементами стратегии. Простая механика: управляй ракетой, уклоняясь от препятствий и врагов. Графика минималистична, но яркая, а звуковая сопровождение добавляет динамики. Повторяемость высока, но за счёт разнообразия уровней и режимов (включая мультиплеер) игра не надоедает. Небольшие недостатки: сложность в управлении на высоких скоростях и ограниченный выбор персонажей. В целом — отличный выбор для коротких развлечений.
its amazing
Weak mystery game. Sure, it's free, but I'd rather pay for a good mystery.
A pretty decent short detective game with good voice acting, and a pretty environment.
