This game was ok for a short game, but not worth £9.99

The puzzles were ok, simple but worked well in terms of interface and completion. 

The voice acting for the video and audio scripting was very poor. They felt as though whomever was recording them had simply been told 'read this aloud' and then the first recording taken for use. Very little or no emotion in the delivery of what was meant to be a blood-chilling, heart-breaking tale of murder and revenge. It might as well have been reading instructions on putting together a set of shelves.  There were also several 'bumps' in the recordings where a line was stumbled over or paused at (which indicated the actor in question was taking a second to understand the content). This was certainly the biggest let-down of the experience, as a better vocal delivery would have at least drawn me into the tale. As it was, this left me somewhat cold and harking back to free games that I enjoyed far more. 

Hopefully their next offering will improve on these issues.
