Earlier today, Sam Barlow admitted to trying to stealthily drop teasers for two games. He failed miserably, and it wasn’t long before the news was out that Half Mermaid Productions (his studio) had opened Steam pages for two new games: Project C██████ and Project D████. Redacted game information will be…

Interactive film trilogy Immortality is coming to PlayStation later this month

January 10, 2024
Half Mermaid/News

There is no other game quite like Immortality. On the surface it looks like another interactive film (okay, a collection of them), but it has gameplay mechanics and a narrative that are absolutely unique. It also marks Sam Barlow’s first horror game since Silent Hill: Shattered Memories (2009). Barlow’s name…

Review: The Isle Tide Hotel (Sony PlayStation 4)

September 12, 2023
PlayStation 4/Reviews

If your estranged daughter was missing and likely in danger, what would you be willing to do in an attempt to save her? This question is the backbone of The Isle Tide Hotel, the latest FMV game from Wales Interactive. Yes, Wales Interactive does more than FMV games, though the…

Interactive mystery The Isle Tide Hotel now has a release date

August 17, 2023
News/Wales Interactive

The Isle Tide Hotel is Wales Interactive’s latest FMV title. It was originally supposed to launch in Q2 2023, but it bumped back slightly and will now be launching in September (Q3). No bother; that’s really not much more of a wait for what I believe from experience will be…

Review: Mia and the Dragon Princess (Sony PlayStation 4)

May 4, 2023
PlayStation 4/Reviews

As I do with FMV games, I’ve had my eye on Mia and the Dragon Princess since it was announced last year. This one is a pretty straightforward interactive film with branching narratives. It’s made by two of the heavy hitters in contemporary FMV gaming, Wales Interactive and Good Gate…

Mia and the Princess Dragon is almost here – watch the launch trailer now!

April 21, 2023
News/Wales Interactive

Okay, I’ll admit it: I’m obsessed with FMV games. Like… obsessed. Wales Interactive has provided me many, many hours of amusement, thoughtfulness, and action through the FMV games it’s developed/published. Especially its interactive films. I’m talking about games like Late Shift and The Complex, that are more films that games…

Review: Murderous Muses (Sony PlayStation 4)

April 12, 2023
FMV Game/PlayStation 4/Reviews

Every now and then, a game pops up that I practically salivate over the mere idea of. That was Murderous Muses to me. Ever since its announcement, I’ve been hooked on the idea of an art gallery plus murder mystery plus FMV goodness. That’s a lot for a game to…

There are few words to describe how excited I am for Murderous Muses, but I’ll try. When I think of all the games coming out this year, and even beyond, it is what I want the most. I feel a deep pull towards it. I need it in my life.…

Review: Ten Dates (Nintendo Switch)

February 14, 2023
Nintendo Switch/Reviews/Wales Interactive

When Five Dates – one of the first (if not THE first) FMV games filmed and made 100 per cent remotely during quarantine – came out, it was at a time people were craving human interaction. It scratched that itch quite well despite those being fictional interactions. Its sequel, Ten…

News/Wales Interactive

It has been months (yes, plural) since Ten Dates was announced, so it’s about time we finally get a proper announcement trailer for it! It’s properly timed to really hype up players, though, so the wait was absolutely worth it. I was obsessed with its predecessor, Five Dates, when it…
