Indigo Prophecy was my first excursion into these types of horror drama games, and this was a very fulfilling re-introduction. If you are familiar with these, then I can say the depth of the available choices for characters actions and responses is very fulfilling. Choosing to run through all or only some of the available choices is responded to well by the game, and the 4 final outcomes that I have gone through so far made perfect sense. The actual story-line is well thought out, disturbing, and has nice depth in its entirety. The characters, good or evil, are relatable and fleshed out. The game is also good with the tiny details as you interact with your environment as you're just 'living your life' are a great influence on helping you to invest in your characters as you live through them. The only flaw I found was the lack of explanation of the substances and the Blade Runner HUD device the FBI agent brought with him - where did they come from, why his habit, - they didn't come with adequate enough explanation for me. Not quite enough backstory provided for such a major character. They were vital in gameplay , but explanation would have been preferred, or at least some point of reference for the required suspension of disbelief. The puzzles were well thought out and executed, especially the power plant, which required mental and controller dexterity. Definitely a mature oriented game, in both subject matter and execution of various gameplay.
