 Worst game I've ever played. January 4, 2009
lucretia23 (New York, NY USA)
No kidding. The worst of the worst of adventure badness. I'm quitting the game 3/4 through because I can't find my way around the park. I can see where I need to go, but the green arrows don't let me go there.
The few puzzles are easy but pointless - easy, that is, except for the part where, for no real reason, you have to navigate to the other end of the park and back. Good luck doing that. I've seen that Tunnel of Terror one too many times. Screw it, it's not worth it. The story is hackneyed and I don't give a hoot about the characters.
The only good thing about this game is the voice characterization, which is exceptional. Other than that - I wouldn't play this game for free. Literally. This was a gift, and I'm throwing it away.

Supernatural Amusements
Pros:
1. Compelling characters -- Delaware St. John and Kelly Bradford -- on a quest to investigate supernatural events in a deserted amusement park, once the scene of a terrible tragedy.
2. Snowy, nocturnal environments, spooky light effects, haunting atmosphere. A Ferris wheel, funhouse and grinning clown statues with dark, feral beings lurking in the shadows.
3. Clever puzzle design, intriguing story, eerie music. First person perspective, point-and-click interface.
Cons:
1. Character movement in the cut scenes is a bit stiff.
2. One location in a multi-stepped puzzle is confusing.
Bottom line:
Delaware St. John and Kelly Bradford make a great "paranormal detection" team in this adventure game series. I hope we see more of them!

 Fun and Creepy March 16, 2008
Europa (Seattle)
This game was pretty good for what I read from previous reviews of the game. THe puzzles were not too difficult at all. The only problems I ran into was how fast the game would load onto the computer. It can seem like the game is not responding at all when waiting what seems like an eternity, but is really five minutes. Finally the window for loading the game will pop up and at most, you'll have to wait a half hour for the game to load.
Another problem was how slow the speech would go in comparison to the subtitles. Always use subtitles in adventure games, just because you sometimes miss something. The video clips get slow when the characters start to talk during a cut scene, so the subtitles usually speed by and you know what they will have said.
Cursors are also a bit confusing too. It's hard to catch some things that you need to use because the pixels are very small.
Overall, the game is pretty fun, but try to get one at a discounted price
