    I can’t deny that I enjoyed it. It proved a fun little distraction perfectly timed to kill a drying cycle in the laundry room on a Sunday afternoon. And I’ll gladly play the next episode, whenever it arrives.

    If you're even remotely intrigued by the prospect of an FMV game being able to tell a good story with interesting characters, the first episode of Missing is $4 well spent. There's no word on when the next episode will arrive, but let's hope it's not too far off.

    I came out of MISSING feeling quite surprised. I’m invested in and intrigued by the story enough that I’m excited for what this series has in store.

    Cons
    -Too Short
    -Some of the animations look poorly made especially during the puzzle solving
    -Autosaves when you start a chapter, No multiple save slots, overwrites last save as soon as you start a chapter
    -The Development group and publisher closed so there will not be anymore sequels or continuation to the story, so the story ends in a cliffhanger    … Full Review »
