Missing

Summary: Interactive, realistic and fun
Review: This game was different than any other game I've played before and I loved it. You kind of have to buy into the idea that you are looking at a disk that this serial killer (the Phoenix) left behind to toy with you and to give you clues as to where two kidnapped people may be. The things that rocked included: 1. How you use the internet to research clues, using places and events that actually happened in the 1300 - 1500's 2. The game is "realistic" in that you receive emails to your actual email account with clues and such about the whereabouts of the kidnapped people. 3. You learn a lot about alchemy and medieval philosophers--very interesting. 4. Creepy graphics and challenging puzzles. In fact, lots and lots of puzzles that were mostly great. What I didn't like: 1. The ending really was bad, but the play was so much fun that it's forgivable. 2. Some of the games were not thought-provoking games, just annoying games of mouse-clicking skill.

Summary: "Missing: Since January" Does Not Work!
Review: Very disappointed in this game because after three installs, it still will NOT work on my six-month old computer using Windows XP. It keeps on crashing my computer and causing it to reboot. When I was able to play it for a few minutes, the puzzles made no sense and were very difficult. The instruction book that comes with the game is very poorly written and is not accurate. The instructions are unclear and don't match up with what is displayed on your computer screen. Perhaps this is due to the instructions being translated from French or something...I don't know.

Very upset that I blew $20 on yet another game I cannot play on my computer.

THIS GAME SUCKS!! TOO MANY FRIGGIN' BUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
