I do really like the black and white color scheme. In the horror adventure genre there isn't exactly a ton of competition, so I'll give it a gander

Leroux posted a review over here: http://www.gog.com/forum/general/indiegamestand_current_game_will_be_updated/post1588, and the only thing holding me back is the cliffhanger and the episodic content. I am not afraid of loosing any money, but I am afraid of starting a story which may turn out to be good, and then there is no resolution... (Alcatraz anyone?). Anyway, I am not sure yet if I am going to get the first part now and consider it an extended demo, or whether wait and see if there are more episodes coming.

MINOR SPOILER!!!!
Essentially you can look into dead peoples eyes and enter their timeline and try to remove the cause of their deaths. The first episode has you basically at a car crash, entering the lives of the dead people involved in the crash, to try to prevent the crash.
/END SPOILER!!!!
I found it a very lacklustre affair tbh, with the final "resolution" perplexing (its not a good ending) and I was annoyed enough to try to find a walkthrough to see if I screwed something up, the only things I could find were in german, so that wasnt much help.
Taken at face value, the ending was annoying, with the final part intriguing, but not intriguing enough for me to want to continue the story. You just keep playing the same scenario with minor diversions to achieve are rather unsatisfying goal.
In keeping with its "comic" theme, I found it reminiscent of those old comics like Eerie, especially the ending, so while it achieves its goal artistically, by the time the next episode/s are released, i dont think I will even remember the story well enough to continue playing through them.

Thanks for letting me know. I think I will wait and see if there is going to be more episodes then, I really can not get on with narratives not having some finality. Especially when I know it is missing.
I like the art style, and I would not mind getting a complete edition if there is ever going to be on.
