The Oatmeal Butterscotch paired with a Snickerdoodle
turned my cynical penis into a happy vagina
Then after an Oatmeal Cranberry and Double Chocolate,
it made my new vagina spontaneously sing the Trolololo Song in an elevator.

Very fun and unique game. Gets a bit repetitive after a while, but the story is good enough to keep you interested.

I rented it and beat it. Supposedly this is the first chapter and there is supposed to be like 3 or 5 total games, and each game that comes will be from the standpoint of a new character in the story and in the end they all meet in the final chapter and something happens.

Good story kind of resident evil feeling but updated with a "lost" feel.

Well I ain't first class
But I ain't white trash
I'm wild and a little crazy too
I have seen a lot of things in my life time.
That is why I walk the line I walk.

I bought it used for the 360 at $25 (it was originally $60) and found it worth the money.

If you can wait, wait for it to drop to $20 or something in a few months, but its pretty good.

If you don't care about the money it's worth it. I really enjoyed playing through it for the story, but like others have said the game plays get repetitive. To me it embodies everything I want in a game to rent.
