Shutter Island
 – 

Very disappointing

Though I wouldn't categorise the game, in general, as 'bad', in terms of what it offers in the way of game difficulty, it comes very close. Basically, once you've found the hidden objects (which isn't too difficult) it does everything for you bar 5 or 6 mini-games, and even these are incredibly easy. I can't remember how long it took but between 2 to 4 hours or thereabouts. For the price, I was very disappointed with this plus the content and ending.

I understand it's a 'taster' for the movie so it couldn't give the whole plot away but nevertheless I think the customer deserved more than was given. With such a cliffhanger and the feeling at the end of 'what's actually going on here?', even the customary 'To Be Continued' would have been something. It's clear that this was intended to incite enough interest to get the player to go see the movie rather than succeed as a game. It's had the reverse effect on me.

I don't normally write reviews and if this game had cost $9:95 I wouldn't have bothered, but at almost $20 I felt compelled to as, bottom line, the game just isn't worth that much money!
