Review of Scratches

Guess what time it is! If you vehemently said "Video game review time!", you're correct, "Tool time!" was also an acceptable answer. In this installment, I'm gonna review "Scratches" which is a little known, quickly played, point-and-click, PC horror game.  The main plot centers around a dude, that buys a creepy old house, out in the woods and turns out, there's some messed up stuff going down, and that's about all I can say without spoiling it.

Graphics are not that great, even for low budget indie standards. Sound is kinda sub-par, with voice acting being a rough patch. The interface can be a little confusing at times, I found my self skimming through a walkthrough, just to figure out how to put the key in the keyhole at the beginning. Pretty much the only redeeming quality is the story, which is still pretty forgettable. So all in all, I give this game a 3 out of 5, which is a solid "meh". If you want to play it, you can find it on Steam fairly cheap.
