Hidden Secrets: The Nightmare

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/Hidden Secrets: The Nightmare

This is a perfect example of how first impressions are everything.

This games has the following phrases to try and get you to download/play it:
Atempted murder victim Flora Dale is deep in a coma
Join her on an inner journey to uncover the truth
Can you solve the puzzle of Flora's attack?

And then they show a clip of someone moving MATCHSTICKS around!!! Come on....

Please, don't market your game like this. It's horrible and very disappointing. How are you supposed to uncover the truth by moving matchsticks? I guess I'll never know because they didn't make me want to download it.

people actually fall for this and buy the game though - casual gamers

hehe
someone didn't hire PR specialists I gather ;)

Yeah, I bet they're crying all the way to the bank with their weeks in the Top 5 on BigFish.

What is amazing about games like that is people can't even download it to try it, they just buy it and then download it (because it's like 1GB). Mind you it's just like games in a shop I guess...

There's quite a few on BFG and they all seem to do quite well. Must be a core set of fans that love them.
