![]() You’ll use it to trace a sound that you hear in the hotel to find a clue. The best tool at your disposal is the microphone. Even the flashlight that needs to be pumped up by pressing the corresponding button only serves use in a couple of instances. The worst part about it is that it’s thrown away in less than two minutes because once you find the flashlight you don’t need it again. You don’t use it to take pictures at all because you’re just using it for the flash so that you can see when making your way down the hallways. Out of the three items, the camera is a total waste of time. You get a polaroid camera, a wind-up flashlight, and a paranormal microphone. It’s a wasted element that I wish had taken the forefront over the distasteful story. While they’re unique and have a purpose at the moment they’re given to us, they’re disposed of after that point and from then on. The game is set up in a span of several days with each day containing its own game mechanics implemented piece by piece. I can’t pick up certain objects in Nicole or Leonard’s room to get a better understanding of them but I can pick up a bottle of water or a construction level?

Instead, I was forced to sit through a 4-hour game that for some reason felt that it needed to focus more on making me sympathize with Leonard without giving an idea of how Rachel felt about her relationship with a grown man. Not one person in the entire story acknowledges the fact that Leonard (Nicole’s father) is actually a child abuser and that what he did was wrong, other than the fact that he cheated on Nicole’s mother. It had the makings of a truly harrowing tale about morality and justice but decides to push an agenda that most people would find truly repulsive. Unfortunately, while the setup for this game sounds very intriguing and dark, the writers failed to properly handle the subject matter properly.
