The Path is certainly an intriguing game. I felt that I could explore for hours just trying to find something new. The idea is beautiful and just morbid enough to interest me, but I felt there was almost too much to explore. I had more fun reading interpretations of the game online after playing than I did actually playing the game. A tiny bit more direction/purpose could hace helped keep my attention more. I didn't really have enough patience to play out the game with each girl. This game is really meant for someone who loves creating their own story for the characters, someone who can really appreciate the mood of the game.

Alibi in Ashes was a fun mix-up for a Nancy Drew game, as you get to play as Ned and Bess. Nancy is thrown in prision for arson and she needs her friends to help do some of the snooping for her. It was interesting to see the people in Nancy's town who know her and what she's about. Not my favorite Nancy Drew game, but playing as different characters made the story line more fun.

I played through this game in just a few sittings, really taking my time. It's not a super long game, but it makes up for it in story. The ending is a bit predictable once you really get going, but there are a few red herrings and side-steps, as well. Gone Home is almost a mystery game, but it feels more personal than that, like you're really just exploring your own home, finding out things about your family's past and present. It's more about making quiet personal discoveries than really solving a mystery.

My only gripe with the game was that the movement of the setting made me quite dizzy at times. The POV follows the mouse, so I had to make sure not to move my mouse too quickly or I would have to take a break or risk getting queasy.
