I Saw Black Clouds delivers an eerie and emotional experience. The full-motion video style makes it feel like an interactive movie, and the branching story keeps you guessing. While some acting is hit or miss, the atmosphere and psychological depth make it a solid pick for narrative-driven game fans. Short, intense, and memorable!

A decent addition to the FMV family of games. The publisher definitely has hit and misses. This one is pretty good and has a nice suspenseful thriller vibe to it, not so much horror. Very dark in nature and doesn't have the campy humor some of teh other FMV's have. It's not of a highest of quality in story telling, but I think that's what I also expect and enjoy from Wales Interactive. I enjoyed the plot and the game also throws you a massive plot point about midway through that will piece alot of what's going on, together, which I think I really enjoyed as it started to make sense and really throws a new perspective on the story. Well done devs. Upon failing certain things, the game doesn't throw you too far back which is really nice. Shorter than the other games in the catalog, clocking in just under 2 hours on a first run. Bonus is that you can skip alot of the story on your 2-4 playthrough for achievements.

A good, yet inconsistent FMV game that will entertain you for 2-3 hours (5h if you go for all achievements). It's worth the buck if purchased on sale (like 80% of or more). Allow me to define inconsistent: A few shots are amazing (spiral staircases, coat at forest edge..), but some are mediocre! Most of the acting is good, but some is amateurish. Having different parallel storylines is great for replayability but inevitably creates bad fittings and strange cutscenes. Most of the storytelling is great and immersive, but parts of the story, especially the second part, just feel rushed. Some choices are well embedded in the story and atmosphere (at the therapist office) just to be ruined by bland choices like turning left or right, followed by going left or right, etc. Kinda reminded me of my first 13-year-old DnD Dungeon master^^. At moments the story and game take themselves seriously just to be broken by the old "Wanna see how you die" moments or the obvious I'm an FMV choices. All in all, the story was entertaining, and having a quite different story at the second playthrough (with the same characters but in different roles) was refreshing, saving this FMV from the "nanard" category.

I recommend going into this game as clueless as possible about the story. It's well done - I don't get how this game has such mixed reviews, it's totally solid.
