Well, this is a pretty nice horror experience, gotta admit, but the message is acually sorta the wrong message. Anyways was a nice game overall.
So that's why the boy ran away - his dad has schizophrenia and tried to kill him?
Reviews for "Reunion"
That was freaking unexpected. Guess it's better to just keep finding the bears, snakes, and ghosts. You don't wanna find the door.
Konash responds:
Indeed... we should save the child!
This is pretty well done and although short it actually was rather good. The information on mental illness was also interesting.
Konash responds:
Thanks. It seems we succeeded in making the information interesting.
To all those who got all upset about this game "Saying all schizophrenics kill their children", I say grow up and open your eyes. The creators simply took the extreme end of an illness to convey a point that if you are ill, seek help. You have sometimes have to hit people with a bit of a shocker to get a serious point across and that is what they did. What conveys this point better? A schizo killing his child, or someone who is mildly depressed looking out a window while it's raining like the commercials all like to do? Point made. Liked the story, the gameplay, and the message, but you lose one star for the unity player, sorry.
Good game. Short but good. Need more checkpoints and a new warning system. The message is goo too. Schizofrenics people can be very dangerous.
I have a couple of incident with schizos. One time (9 years ago) i was persued by a man who was trying to beat the wind. I manage to lost him one block after. Later, this same man was yelling at a frined of mine. He called her of b*tch and other depreciative terms. Later this man was killed by gangsters. By the word, he take a gun and shot the sky, then when the magazine emptied the gangsters shot him.
Another case was a woman, who stabed her "husband" with a scissors. She tried to stab her daughter too, but someone stopped her. She got a clinical treatment and is Ok. She have something dark in her eyes, sometimes. The words says that she became schizofrenic due to years drug abuse. Well, I say that not every schizo' is dangerous, but sometimes yes.
Graphics: 5/5 (stylish)
Gameplay: 3.5/5
Music: 4/5 (Animals is not ok)
Fun Factor: 3.5/5 (Losing here is very frustating, specialy when "something else" is close and you don't really need to see "him").
PS: Sorry my english!
