5* atmosphere

Brilliant atmosphere and music. I love the film-like opening.

I never get far because once you're seen it tends to be over in seconds. I don't like to replay because it ruins the idea of only having one life. So it is quickly panicky, but that can leave you running around like a speeded-up comedy skit. If the danger was toned down _slightly_ I'd probably get further with it as a game, and experience more tension overall!

Perma-death is punishing with the speed of the Slasher. Best bet to lose him is to run in circles on the second floor, the music will stinger it's way out once he's lost sight of you.

Cheers,

Thanks, I'll give it a go next time. I developed that tactic for the next two games and completed them, so perhaps should go back to this!
