This is very weird as with Lifestream - clearly I played this years ago but I remember very little of it - except the plot. I wonder if the UI changed; which I really liked on this replay. Definitely creepy and worthwhile playing if you like more-text-l

I originally played this game in 2016 with an early copy and reviewed it for Just Adventure. I recently noticed that Steam Achievements had been added so I replayed it. Unimatrix created the Storycentric engine for constructing illustrated text adventure

Well this one kicked up a notch both in adult themes and creepyness. It literally don't pull any punches to the player/reader (you'll see ;) and from the three interactive fiction stories released from Unimatrix Productions (Lifestream, Shady Brook, Filmm

Real creepy GUI-driven text adventure, starts slow but decent value Positives: + Creepy story, far better than the puzzles + GUI-driven text adventure like the mid 90's (in game mapping and such) + About 8 hours of game play + Cost only a few bucks, less

Entertaining at first, but turned out that the game system mainly wants you to repeatedly walk around and just talk with everyone. Word to the devs. If you make an Adventure or a game, there has to be some interactivity and decision making. Not that the p

Lifestream, Shady Brook and The Filmmaker are the first three episodes (in this order) of a planned long series, whose fourth episode is Stonewall Penitentiary and the upcoming fifth one is Summit of the Wolf. These episodes are (seemingly) very loosely

Fantastic interactive story adventure in a semi "shadowgate" style! Once you get down with the UI it's a breeze to move through the game world and look for items, puzzles and new encounters and interactions with people. Great mood and really suspenseful s

The plot of this is a little simple, although I suppose I liked the resolution. What is interesting about it, is that it attempts to create a classic text adventure without requiring the player to do any typing. It has kind of mixed results. Perhaps on

It's my third game from this developer but this title is definitely the most disturbing by far! It should have been labelled horror or psychological horror. You play as a writer moving into a small mountain town with your aging father. The game starts s

Well, all i can say about this game: I definitely enjoyed it. It`s pretty similar to its previous game, Lifestream. Both games have no story connection though. That means boh games can be played independently. Shady Brook is a simplistic puzzle game and f

I'm not too far into this, but it is a good game. You play a pre-made character and try to solve the mystery of what is going on in your new "home" town.

Hardware: i5 3570, nVidia GTX 1070, Windows 10. Bought it because: I like old-school text adventures. A hybrid text-based adventure game with a graphical overlay, reminiscent of the old Legend games engine used to make games such as Xanth, Shannara and

Fantastic adaptation of a more traditionally-styled adventure game into a text-based experience. The story will keep you hooked until the end, just like the original!
