Scratches is an atmospheric mystery adventure game brimming with eerie
twists and terrifying surprises. Set in and around a solitary Victorian mansion
concealing a terrible secret, a long since forgotten story from the past emerges
to haunt the present. A careful combination of inventory-based and deductive-style
puzzles, integrated with a riveting storyline, non-linear gameplay, intricately
detailed graphics, and an entrancing soundtrack, immerse you in a haunting Gothic
atmosphere until the final shocking revelation. As famed horror writer Michael
Arthate, you arrive at Blackwood Manor, your newly acquired home, an old Victorian
house where the rooms speak of past events, their tales echoing through its walls.
As the odd noises in the basement grow ever louder, you set about solving your
sanctuary's long-held mystery. You delve into every dark corner of the mansion and
its untended grounds via a point-and -click interface. Examining, probing, and
hunting your way through musty rooms, an overrun greenhouse, a sinister chapel, and
a forbidding crypt, your investigation deepens, and you slowly become aware of one
terrifying fact - you are not alone. In April 2007, Scratches: Director's Cut was
released which features over 2 additional hours of gameplay, a new chapter and an
alternate ending. |
