Well, since I am feeling nostalgic I thought id grab the Sanitarium game off the net, its almost done right now. Did anyone play this all the way through? Supposedly a good story and scary atmosphere, the videos look nice but as usual I'd like some Nforce'ers views first? Smile

Excellent adventure game, one of the best. Ending is as good as the rest of the game.


Upcoming PC games 2009 and onwards

AH great to hear Very Happy I'm was hoping to look past the graphics, but in looking at the screens I was pleasantly surprised that they aren't too bad at all, and the game actually has voice overs not just scroll text.

Any idea of length? couple of hours?

A couple of hours for an adventure game? You planning on using a walkthrough or something? Laughing

I can't remember the exact time I took playing through it, but it's rather lengthy - but not lengthy is in RPG-lengthy Razz

It was a very frustrating game but also pretty fantastical because of the setting and atmosphere. I really enjoyed it for the latter, less for the puzzles and so on.

I played through it in about 4 hours Razz It's an extremely short game, which is too bad. I liked it except for the ending (where's Still Life 2? Razz).

It's not on my list of greatest adventures, but great story and atmosphere nontheless.

It appeared in the same year as Grim Fandango and Tex Murphy Overseer, to which it was (is) no competition.

I remember this game, I loved it to bits, one of the finest adventure games ever IMO. Very thought provoking story and great atmosphere.

Ah yes Bioforge, good memories! At that time Origin was one of my favourite developers bringing us the Crusader games, the Wing Commander series, Privateer 1/2, System Shock, Strike Commander and other classics. At that time I still purchased all these titles instead of pirating lame console garbage ports nowadays.

Yes, played Sanitarium when it first arrived. Parts of it were awesome but I'll give 4 out of 5 in total.
