  1. While it's an ambitious and lengthy mystery inspired by the master of suspense, the game is spoiled by an overly confusing story, ambiguous puzzles and a flawed interface.
  2. The adventure is not on the difficult side; in fact I would only recommend it to the less experienced players.
  3. 61
    No suspense, puzzles of little interest, poor dialog, a tortuous storyline, and awkward control.
  4. I had fun though, which ultimately is what a game is about, but I did have to struggle with some annoying glitches, and a more than annoying dead end.
  5. Spoiled by an overly confusing story, ambiguous puzzles and a flawed interface.
  6. The only suspense in The Final Cut is the fear that one of the numerous bugs will make it impossible to continue through the game's easy puzzles and nonsensical story.
  7. 55
    Feels like a confusing, unworthy amalgamation of all sixty-seven Hitchcock projects.
  8. The terrible dialogue and silly horror aspects make the game feel much more like a modern ‘B’ horror story than a Hitchcock tale.
  9. Sure, there is a deep convoluted plotline and beautiful backdrops, but the deficiencies in interface, action sequences, and conversations are quite serious.
