This game is a one of a kind masterpiece. Can you think of any other game with this amount of FMV sequences / adventure puzzle solving / over the top gore / and horror? Thought so. There are some scenes throughout Phantasmagoria that are so crazy that no game in the past 11 years ever even came close too. Many people would probably never even see them, for many of these scenes are hidden throughout different locations throughout the days in the game. There is more than meets the eye here, if you run through the game to beat it you will miss about 75% of the fun FMV sequences. This game is about atmosphere and exploration, be sure to go off course in Phantasmagoria and check everything out!

+ Puzzles are at a perfect level of difficulty, no walkthrough required
+ Graphics were unmatched in its day, and hold up well today 10 years later
+ For gore / scare fans... this game DELIVERS!!!
+ Story is interesting and keeps you on the edge of your seat
+ Opening music score is diabolic and perfect, in game sound is perfect
+ Acting is done really well by most characters in the game

- The acting from the support characters in this game are better than the main characters
- The actual game is a little bit too short

This is the type of game that suits me perfectly and I love to play. There are only a few games out there like this one, and it saddens me that 10 years later this genre of video gaming is somewhat dead. In my personal opinion, we need alot more games like this. There are too many resident evil and silent hill clones and not enough true in your face original adventure HORROR games. I'm not sure if current computers will work well with it, but if you find Phantasmagoria and love horror movies and games, buy it!
