fromElephants have a highly developed brain that is 3-4 times larger than that of a human brain, but it is smaller than a human brain proportionately!

Rick Rogers was determined to make a fresh start after a rocky relationship and betrayal from his best friend. Everything he owned was packed into his car, and the road home seemed unusually long. Route 39 was a lonely stretch of highway, there wasn't a soul in sight for miles, until a hitchhiker appeared around the bend. Rick knew better than to pick up a stranger, but after all, they were in the middle of nowhere, and she was quite beautiful, what could possibly go wrong? Everything goes wrong! Rick should have kept driving that fateful day because now his time is limited, just 3 days, Rick has been given a mere three days to live, or 3 days to survive!

Welcome back Elephant! Just a few weeks ago I was writing about how disappointed I was that this dev had seemingly abandoned the creepy graphics style that drew me in hook, line, and sinker when I first discovered their popular series with the tiny little Elf dog (can I say the title?) So now I can say once more "NOBODY does creepy, abandoned, paranormal like this dev!" <insert handful of peanuts> This is the kind of plot that keeps you on the edge of your computer seat, one that you can't stop playing because it keeps leading you along with teasers, twists, and turns. Personally, I haven't felt this excited about playing a game after the demo in a long, long time because they usually fizzle after the climactic demo ending as if they had run out of ideas. <insert more peanuts because they deserve royal treatment> Thank you for providing this Masterpiece! This game deserves an award for its genius storyline! <so here's more peanuts>

In this Collector's Edition version there are Hidden Eyes or Hidden Ravens in each scene and each scene has a Morphing Object. My only complaint is that the cursor turns to a hand when it scans across an item, but I worked around that by not moving my mouse until I found the collectibles.

The Hidden Object Scenes are varied with Pictured Items, Silhouetted Shape Finds, Keywords in Sentence Finds, Sketches Finds and Multiples of the Same Item Finds. Many of the HOP's are smaller Zoom Zone's, and most are located in interesting scenes. I really liked the HOP where you had to find Sketches on a wooden door that had been partially scratched out, I haven't seen that style done before.

The Mini-Games are fairly decent and most are doable on the first attempt. Below are brief descriptions of some of the games you'll encounter during the demo:

1) Choose the correct symbols that spell the Latin word shown.
2) Swap destination stickers to correct country locations then input numbers into the lock.
3) Rotate the wheel to show matching symbols on the walls.
4) Swap picture frames to their dust outlines shapes on the wall.
5) Place torn tapestry fragments using arrows to scroll up and down.
6) Recreate symbols by selecting rotation buttons.
7) Select pairs of ghosts to find matching symbols.

This Collector's Edition version has 10 wallpapers, 10 Concept Art pictures, 1 Screensaver, 5 Music Soundtracks, 10 Achievements to earn, 13 re-playable Hidden Object Scenes, 13 re-playable Mini-Games, 12 Hidden Ravens, 12 Hidden Eye (Personal Items: Hunter, Car, Graduation Cap, Caricature, Supernatural Magazine, Rick's Photo, Shooting Trophy, Wedding Ring, Broken Phone, Cufflinks, Coffee Mug, Lighter) 26 Morphing Objects, 5 Main Chapters +Bonus Chapter and a built-in Strategy Guide, enjoy...for 3 days!

I have become a follower of the paranormal!
It starts off with you picking up a hitchhiker - at night - when all is dark! Right away I think "creepy". It turns out she's been killed by someone you will soon meet.
You make it to the mansion and from then on, you are on the hunt, picking up clues and helping displaced souls along the way.

The visual and sound are great and the storyline is clear and keeps you going. Soon into the game, I think "never trust a possessive mamma".
You play games within games within games. Just when you think you finished one mini-game you have to do something else.
The map works well. Show less

Its been a long time since I have enjoyed playing a game this much. Creepy but without all the over the top monsters that are in so many of the games these days. Loved the storyline and the way this game flowed. Thank you for restoring my faith that games like these are still being made.

In what I am hoping is the kickoff bid in a new series Paranormal Files, this game Fellow Traveler is excellent. If more than 5-stars were available this game would get them. Rick Rogers is on his way to nowhere in particular when he stops to pick up a woman who is wandering in the woods. Rick finds himself on Hwy 39 when he happens to meet Emily a beautiful young woman who needs a ride to a mansion that is not that far out of his way. Rick’s life has recently had more downs than ups after he loses his job and even worse, goes home to find his fiancé in bed with his best friend. So maybe helping a beautiful woman won’t be that bad after all. It is obvious that Rick’s judgment is not firing on all cylinders when he meets Emily and soon he will live (or die) to regret his lapse. It is not long before Rick begins to see just how wrong he was!

Wow, this is one great game! After feeling rather blasé about the slew of recent cookie-cutters that have come our way, Fellow Traveler has a storyline that held me from the first scene through the bonus game. Trust me this doesn’t often happen as I am generally done by the time I reach “the end”. From the minute that Rick picks up Emily on the road this game leads me down the path to an excellent game that provided hours of entertainment.

The HOPS include enough variety that I didn’t become bored. The graphics were clear and it made playing through the HOPS fun rather than tedious, without that “oh no, another HO scene” feeling. Not only do we find the traditional scenes but there were many mini-scenes thrown in as well. Recently, I have played several games where the “mini-HOP” was used frequently and it looks like this is a new trend that we will see more often. The puzzles were entertaining and some even had enough challenge that I needed to use the old grey matter to solve them. There is a good balance between puzzles and HOPS in the game but the scale tipped a bit more in favor of the puzzles.

In the end, I was left with a very positive feeling about this game and know this is a game that I will definitely play again. As I played, I had the feeling that .Paranormal Files is a new take on the long-time Haunted Hotel series and maybe that series will finally be put to rest. After playing the beta for the game, I knew this game would be a keeper, and it definitely is! Even though this game is one that I love, as always, please try the demo to see if Paranormal Files Fellow Traveler is a game you will enjoy. Happy gaming! Show less

I recommend this game!

I loved this game so much! Please please make a series out of this! The story line was perfectly creepy. However, the story telling is defiantly for adults, and not for children. The mini games were challenging and sometimes even hard. I played this game in one day, which I usually do not do. I was actually bummed when it ended. Perfect game. I cannot wait to play another one in this series!!!!!

These are the kind of games I love. Mystery and Suspense. The story line could use some work, but all in all I really liked it.
Graphics are great and the puzzles are good. There should be an option for male or female characters as I like to play as female. Love it.

Starting like a normal event, we find ourselves in a secluded mansion, where a strange elderly lady won’t let us go without fulfilling certain tasks. In the park in front of the mansion gates we find a lot of abandoned cars, find left items of other young men, apparently having stepped into the same trap. And it seems to a trap. Our hitchhiker has vanished, we have understood, she was not real after all, but we cannot just leave. In the mansion an elderly lady watches our steps. The other unlucky ones have received the same message, we did, after the girl disapeared: You will die in 3 days. In the course of time, we learn, this message is meant, as the period, we have left, gets shorter…..

The minds behind the Grim Tales and Haunted Hotel series are telling us a haunting tale with an exciting story, a palette of HOS variations and many puzzles. Fast paced game, you have a lot to do. And you need to have in mind clock, ticking down the days of life you are still granted. Wonderful start in a new series! Show less
