Thanks for all reviews!

- - - Thanks for the first page! - - -
(Really don't know how it got there - especially since the sound was awful yesterday...)

---

A horror game which can be played over and over since you never know where evil hide!

This is an update of the game Awe - The Beckoning.
Updates are based on the feedback from the last version.
Major updates are - "Sudden unfair death" is removed.
Describing text added.
Some tweaking of the variables...

A warning to those faint at heart - Do not play this game since it contain flickering, flashing and sudden horror events. Play on your own risk! (I just write this as a warning so that I won't be sued, not to 'hype' the game/make it seem scarier than it is!)

Feedback most appreciated:
Is it too easy?
Is it too hard?
Should the instructions on how to complete the game be more precise?

Could be awesome...

I loved the atmosphere of this game and the art was awesome. But it really seemed to fall apart after that. I played it several times and each time I was thinking, "what the fuck am I supposed to do?" I finally figured out that I was supposed to find the items and give them to the ghosts.

The only problem here is that the items are extremely arbitrary and hard to find. I love a good point-and-click puzzler and I have noticed that unreasonable relationships between item and task is a key problem in bad puzzlers like this one.

Oh and let me point something out... "sudden unfair death" has most certainly NOT been removed. The time limit for playing this game is way too short and really took away from the experience.

Overall the ambiance was creepy and weird and that was spot on, maybe make the ghost's face a little more skeleton-ish and you'll have a really scary game. But the scripting, frantic arbitrary item search, and time limit really ruined an otherwise good game.

Have to agree with the delegation from Loth Lorien

The noise was awful. I could kill the speakers, but in doing so I kill the atmosphere and ambiance that helps makes games like this fantastic.

Ominous is good. Annoying, bad.

No. Just no.

The noise was so awful that I was clicking around as fast as possible to try and get away from it, which defeats the point of having a story-based game. When I did try to read something? Typo. This game could be a wondrous gem, but I don't care because that noise is abusive. I saw no mute button, but even if there was one, you put it there on purpose and I can't pretend it isn't there.
