Trailer makes it look like the target audience are pre-pubescent teens (or anyone that's into those asian cartoons). Is it any decent?

ETA 50m.
I'm about to play a new game by Jane Jensen? This is so surreal.

Downloaded it, manual is German-only but there are "DE" and "EN" folders for audio.
Seems like a disc that was designed for the German market but includes English audio as well.

Nice... the bink movies pause every couple seconds and the game itself makes Black Ops look perfectly smooth by comparison.
Edit: Scratch that, a reboot fixed it. Now everything's fine and I have to agree with Ashok0 completely so far.

Initial thoughts after the first 2 chapters. For what its worth the puzzles are pretty easy so far, probably about the same difficulty as Dreamfall. While I wouldn't mind more challenging puzzles along like lines of Gabriel Knight 3, I haven't seen any non-intuitive, illogical puzzles either.
Difficulty aside, Ms. Jensen's primary draw is her storytelling. So far I'm really digging the rich atmosphere and history behind this game. The story is intriguing thus far and I'm already finding myself caring about the characters. Some of the animations are slightly clunky, but the overall art design, original score, and voice acting seems to have quite a bit of heart behind it. I'm not a huge fan of the storyboard style cutscenes and some of the textures could be higher resolution, but these issues are hardly a deal breaker. Samantha Everett is already filling that void in my heart that opened the minute April Ryan went missing in Arcadia. While I think a few technical aspects of the game could have been a bit better polished, this is probably the most ambitious adventure game I've played since Ragnar Tornquist went MIA from the adventure scene in 2006.

Seems so, on Astra I managed to grab from a.b.ath. A LOT of incomplete files but enough par files to rebuild.

I find it hard to believe it's a coincidence that every upload of this on usenet just gets corrupt like that. Has Astraweb started fucking up pirate games/movies?

can't get it to boot on my machine. This takes me back to like the year 2000...
wtf
First I got a direct x error, fixed that by using the dll, next I get a game.exe error
it launches, then crashes
EDIT: fixed it, installed direct x from the disc in the support folder, now it works!

hricky translation : blames game for using old Adventure Tricks like see all things [Examine] to push the story forward , pixel hunting etc... summary blames adventures for having stressful mechanics and not being more player friendly ... DERPS
see his minus Nicht viel Action = NOT ENOUGH ACTION
LULLLZZZ
its a ADVENTURE GAME NOT A COVER SHOOTER DEAL WITH IT

examine ALL THINGS even a little crappy thing like a signpost , yeah i know its a crap thing to do but it uses the GK2 passing time mechanic... so your forced to examine all things to push time forwards  |
Yeah... I can see that now. While examining the stupid flowers there's a tiny area you have to click...
I've gotten quite into it i must say.

Did you read the manual lying besides it?
Spoiler: | In any case, put 99 on the zero, then leave the % sign on 1-26, and for 27 to the end put zero if I remember correctly.

Thanks, KGen.
Stuck again. Chapter 4 this time.
Spoiler: | I have to check up on every student in the experiment if someone among them is actually pulling off the pranks around Oxford. I went into Helena's room. Searched it thoroughly. And then Charlie's and Harvey's too. All three floors. I also made a small device that has to be put in the gym in order for the culprit to be caught but Sam keeps telling she needs to do that by nighttime. What do I do next? |

Spoiler: | Did you take the camera from Helena's room (near the computer)? You'll need it to take pictures in the gym when using the device....otherwise, it might be a number of things you forgot to do to end the chapter...is the dorms the only place written in golden on the map? Also, you know you can use space to show hotspots, it might help if you missing some item |

Spoiler: | Yes, I took the camera. The only spots on the map that are not greyed out are the Edmund Hall, The Neurobiology Institute and the Church where the second Daedalus riddle takes place (I finished the riddle part for that chapter therefore this place gets excluded). The other place that I searched was Linkweller's office. But there isn't anything significant. |
