Rating: - Horrifying, funny, love story mystery
One of the best games I have ever played. I hope you think so also. I never saw a game since this with real characters in such a love relationship.
When husband gets bizzare...I am afraid for the wife.
What is going on? What is she to do???
Goose bumps with this one.
Scared my nephews for years. Do not play with young ones. It really is a creeper.
Rating: - Phantastic!!
I love this game!
I had it and got about half way through before my computer crashed.
By the time my computer was fixed (and wiped clean of everything on it..) I'd lost the first 3 disks, so I couldn't play anymore!
I looked around for a long time trying to find it (well I found it, but it was never under $75) and never thought to check amazon! I'm buying it so I can finally finish the game!
Its grotesque and disturbing and just plain awesome.
I can't wait to play again. I'd recommend this game to anyone who likes horror films. The magician in the game murders his wives in horrific ways that slightly remind me of the Saw movies.
Rating: - Be aware -- seriously gory
Games from an earlier era, with the live action, gripping music, brilliant graphics, challenging game play, and actual plots that characterized it. You should be aware, though, that these are absolutely NOT games for kids (however you define that -- I played them when I was in my mid-30s, and they gave me nightmares). The gory stuff is horrible, graphic, sadistic, and realistic, and much of it is against women. Both games include a sexual component; in Phantasmagoria 1, it's a substory (well, sort of); in P 2, it's the central story, and it gets kinky to disturbing.
Rating: - Loved It
Maybe I'm a fan of the older video graphics mix style games but I thought it was fantastic. I am a true fan of these old style games; highly recommend it.
Rating: - The worst game ever!!
Phantasmagoria was the worst game I have ever played. That is why live action cut scenes never made it they are no longer in video games. If you buy this game it is the worst mistake ever that you can make.
That is why I gave it a 1 out of 5. If you like horror flicks well I would stay away from this game and forget that you ever played the game Phantasmagoria. If you want a good horror game get silent hill 2 or resident evil 4 not this game.
