The Run was really fun. I do wish there was choice to selec to start from a choice rather than replay the whole game -- which is a downside to most FMV games. The production quality and acting was great. I remember the male protagonist from The Vikings tv show. He's always been a good actor. The end got me for sure!
I liked the games concept alot and it looked stunning but for a game with only decisions, it didn't feel that great like theres only 2 decisions for everything even combat, making combat more about about luck then choosing the right one,
Love this game! Most horror game you kill a few zombies or what ever and its not really that scary anymore, maybe geta few cheap jump scares in. This game is different because of it's style. It keep you immersed throughout the adventure. What a great idea for a game. I love it and if they come out with more ill definatly buy it! great work DE!! also what a baddie the main character is. wowzers.

A powerful thriller with great acting. After completing the first run you have seen a full 100 Nibute movie. But very early you have to make a choice which will lead you to a different path which will give you around 45 minutes extra . Very enjoyable and definetely worth your 10 bucks,
Zählt meiner Meinung nach zu den besten FMV Games, die ich bis jetzt gespielt habe, Ideal geeignet, wenn man etwas sucht, was man an einem Abend mit Freunden durchspielen kann. Der Film geht je nach Entscheidungen +- 1 Stunde und 30 Min. Leider ist er auch nur in englischer Sprachausgabe, aber mit deutschen Untertiteln, falls man diese braucht. Genretechnisch handelt es sich um einen Überlebens-Horror Thriller. Glänzen tut das Spiel vorallem durch seine doch recht prominente Besetzung. Unter anderem dabei sind Roxanne McKee bekannt aus Game Of Thrones und George Blagden aus der Serie Vikings. Die Story ist anfangs ziemlich klar und linear, wird zum Ende hin aber doch etwas verwirrend. Es bietet sich ohnehin an, dass Spiel mehrmals durchzuspielen wenn man alles sehen will, da in einem Durchgang logischerweise nicht alle Szenen gezeigt werden können. Ich wurde sehr gut unterhalten und freue mich auf mehr Spiele dieser Art.
As my first FMV game and I can definitely say its fun. I played it with friends and it's definitely worth doing it that way. The story is quite interesting with two different routes to go which are quite different from each other. I think the acting and the scenes were really well done as well as how the choices affect the endings.

High production quality. Definitely play it. Runs butter smooth without any of that upscale nonsense.
awesome game with a really awesome story and plotwist. The actors are also very good. A gem if you are into Choice making FMV games !
Boring
Ein interaktiver Horrorthriller, wo das Gameplay daraus besteht, alle paar Minuten aus zwei Entscheidungsmöglichkeiten zu wählen. Eine Fitnessinfluencerin läuft in der nähe eines Italienischen Dorfs durch die Pampa und dreht dabei Vlogs. Doch schon früh passieren erste unheilvolle Dinge. So läuft sie beinahe in eine fiese Drahtfalle. Wenig später wird sie von einer Bande von maskierten Maskenmännern durch den Wald gejagt. Die Produktion ist für B-Movie Verhältnisse durchaus hochwertig. Schöne Landschaftsaufnahmen. Die Untertitel haben ein paar kleinere Schreibfehler. Apropos Untertitel. Die Sprachausgabe an sich ist nur auf Englisch, aber an einigen Stellen wird Italienisch gesprochen. Wer kein Italienisch kann, sollte die Untertitel auf jeden Fall einschalten. Das Ende in der Kirche habe ich nicht kapiert.
