Oh cool, new point & click adventure game has been released. Looks pretty good, love that 2D design.

Anyone tried it?

Eurogamer gave it 6/10, but I'd rather hear it from someone here.

looks interesting.

Did a google the other day looking for 'best horror' point and click games and 'Scratches' came up. From the reviews i read its a shocker providing i get the directors cut according to the reviewer it will scare the hell out of you.

I read about 5 reviews with all the same results its good. Then stumbled on a game spot review and they said its crap! They gave it a 3 out of 10.

Looks good for its age 2007 but is it really that scary.

New clues to understanding the story and a score system based on number of clues and easter eggs found
New revealing thoughts from the main character in “Michael’s Diary
“Making Of” interviews and a sneak preview of Nucleosys' next title
Improved soundtrack and higher supported resolution
Entirely reworked and enhanced graphics
