This is one of the more unusual interactive fiction games out there. The story at first is generally Lovecraftian; horrors from beyond, a dark, mostly deserted old town, madness, etc.
You play a newspaper reporter who lives in a town on the edge of civilization. You are investigating a number of disappearances. Things get weird.
I had some trouble even getting out of the first room, but after that, things sped up. You spend a lot of time wandering around the smallish map, trying to see what happens next.
The game is definitely unpolished. For instance, opening a certain box said that "you see Filled_Right". There are typos and other issues.
Overall, the story is fun. There is a mind-blowing twist in the middle of the game that really took me by surprise, making this game worthwhile to play for that reason alone.
