* note.... make sure to always click the "newest" option in the drop down for looking at reviews. It is often the people who completed the full game. And each persons Bigfish ID can be clicked on,,,, to see all their other reviews.
This game was so well done. I play hundreds of these games -and buy more it seems- and this was perfectly done.
STORY: You are a child investigator in SE who suspects a small boy with telekenetic abilities is in an abusive situation. So you do some break in maneuvers and save him!
GAMEPLAY & GRAPHICS: As you race the boy to safety /whoa, this chick drives like me.../Your paranormal buddy has the power to stop a train & you are both ok! You actually use his abilities /and later a little girl's in bonus play/ to move and retrieve items. ie: your "helper" in this game. Kevin's coolest ability was to "place thoughts" into other peoples mind. The graphics ARE well done here, though there IS just a hint of hand drawning...not a fan. For perfected graphics see the Midnight Mysteries series, especially Houdini.
CUTSCENES AND VOICEOVERS: Deserve their own category they are that good. Good thing bonus allows us to see them again.
MAPS, JOURNAL, AND HINT SYST: The best I've seen. There is a refer to journal and I like these since I play several games at the same time, Maps, are the "jump to" kind with X marks where you need to go next making a walkthough guide obsolete.
SE Gameplay TIME: took me 2 hr and 10 min on EASY mode.
BONUS TIME: IS EXACTLY 1 HOUR MORE. I DID PLAY THIS ENTIRE GAME IN 1 DAY.
INVENTORY ITEMS: can come up close and be interacted/w
Every item you collect or use progresses you in the game and relates to the story,,,,, I LOVE THIS....IT IS NOT JUST PLACING RANDOM FOUND ITEMS INTO FITTED SLOTS.
PERFECTING THIS GAME: would be, to add more HO scenes of various types because in this game they are all Progressive, find one item to open the next #except for bonus play there are a couple regular HO scenes.
2. The graphics were good but I would have perfected them as I mentioned above.
IF YOU LIKED THIS GAME YOU WILL PROBALBY LIKE THESE, They are similar paranormal ability and paranormal gms and all these were good enough for me to recommend.
1. Agency of Anomalies: Cinderstone Orphanage
2. Angelica Weaver: Catch me if you can
3. Reincarnations series, all are great. in one you play AS A DOG!
4. Shiver: Poltergeist
Especially, because gameplay was short, if you liked this demo, you will, in my advise, love this game. And The bonus play is a full hour on easy. Making ENTIRE game 3hr 10min
DEVELOPERS:
IDEA FOR PARANORMAL PURSUIT #2: Have a child that can maneuver fire, water and air, separate the game into 3 parts like Redemption Cemetery, and have a Paranormal some cute animal, a witches familiar cat, or wolf...
TO ALL THOSE PEOPLE THAT WORKED ON THIS, AND TO BIGFISH, I AM YOUR BIGGEST FAN....THANK YOU FOR ALL THE TIME DEVOTED TO THIS AWSOME GAME! PLEASE MAKE ANOTHER EDITION TO THIS,,,,,DON'T FORGET TO ADD A SCREENSAVER THAT SAVES TO COMPUTER, so we remember what a cool game it was and to buy the next! Show less
I recommend this game!

There are so few pure adventure games . This may be the best. Grabs your attention from the firat scene and never lets up. With most games I'm usually lost or bored half way thru and can't wait for it to end. I was dissapointed when this ended because it was so much fun.

Has inventory lock which is a must. Very fast - 10 sec recharge which is great. Wonderful graphics and sound. NO HOG's but lots of scenes where you are given the silouette of a handful of items, which you must find in order to complete it. Wish they made more like this!

I cannot believe I missed this game when it first came out. I followed the storyline from start to finish, couldn't wait to find out what happened next. For a story to keep my attention, it must be good. I usually skip over a story after the first couple of sentences, but I actually paid attention throughout. Well done to the developers, can we please have some more of this type of game?
I recommend this game!

You are Samantha Evans, the social worker, who is out to protect and save Kevin from a particular politician, who is seeking him for his special powers. He's a real cute kid, too. And there are other interesting characters involved as well. It's quite an adventure to say the least.
The voiceovers were great regardless of the lip-syncing. Could be the English dubbing was off a bit. Doesn't really matter.
Big Fish, this makes five games in a row now that have won me over. If anyone complains that there aren't any good games to play, then I have to say "they're nuts!"
Legris and Alwawar, what an amazing game! Bravo to all involved in developing this spectacular game! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time! I should have waited for the Big Fish discount for the CE version. Perhaps, I'll consider doing just that and see what the Bonus Game has to offer. Without giving away any spoilers there is more to the storyline than meets the eye.
I never got bored once playing this game! Very intelligent tasks, and awesome graphics considering the subject matter. The HOS, which were far and few between, consisted of silhouette items. The tasks and mini-games are phenomenal and very clever, and there are loads of them to figure out. The game flowed like a charm and fast, too. The music was wonderful and not one bit distracting either.
Oh, yea, without a doubt, I highly recommend this game! Don't think too hard about it, try it out! I really loved this game! Show less

The storyline was v. good, there is a map that lets you jump to locations and shows where actions are available. The main characters are lovable and memorable and a breath of fresh air from fairy tales and dragons.
The puzzles were less than mind bending, but fun nevertheless.
Highly recommended for an afternoon of solid fun. I too, was sad to see it end. Show less

The thing that fascinated me with this game was the level of detail and how well the intro and all other cut scenes were executed, like i was in a movie or high budget tv show :)
The game looks and feels great even though i am more for a magical fairy tale setting.

The down to earth feel of making it feel like you had to really put things together, being chased, trying to save a psychic boy, so realistic - it was all so fantastic! I love everything about this game!! Please make more of these types of games with the paranormal and realistic aspect! Awesome Game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
