What Gamespot Users have to say about Scratches

  • Rating:4.9

    Well polished, tastefully presented, but contra-intuitively designed - a poor attempt to save traditional adventures...

    First of all, I'll have to admit that Scratches is not quite a good piece as a traditional adventure: many of its puzzles are badly designed as they limit too much the player decisions by forcing players to strictly foll... Read Full Review

    Gamespot reviewer is dead wrong. This is an *Excellent* traditional adventure game.

    ...okay...

    When I started this game, I though it might be different. It was, in a way, but I just couldn't get into it like other games. Maybe I'm just picky, I don't know. I understand great visuals ,environments, and sounds, ... Read Full Review
