    Don’t buy this. Don’t show this to friends as a joke. Don’t even say its name out loud. This is the game that shall not be named. This needs to die an unloved death on the Nintendo eShop purchased by absolutely no one.

    It is a boring, unpolished piece of software that does nothing to thrill the player.

    It functions, but it’s so disjointed, underdeveloped and brief that there’s no reason to give it your attention. Warn your friends, write it off, and then move on.

    This is not a video game; it is one man's attempt to exploit ignorant consumers. On the surface it may vaguely resemble one, and The Letter might have even been recommended purely for novelty sakes, but that would mean giving money to TreeFall Studios.

    I appreciate the effort of indie devs over the wii u console, but come on!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is not even a game. It's just a walking simulator with nothing much to do than click on a few objects. The story is non existant and the plot twist is unnecessary and detract from the experience. Even for a few cents, it is still overpriced.… Expand

    How in the world did this game get through Nintendo's e-shop?!?! This just sucks.

It does not deserve to be apart of an underrated library of games.… Expand

    I brought this trash for 50 cent, and I feel The Letter shouldn't even exist. It's nothing but a walking simulator, with redefined PS1I brought this trash for 50 cent, and I feel The Letter shouldn't even exist. It's nothing but a walking simulator, with redefined PS1 graphics, and it's not even scary. it's suppose be a horror, but there's no monsters, nothing that'll scare the **** out of you. There's nothing to interact with at all. All you do is play as this young man named Michael Kennedy, and search for clues on how to find his missing father. That's it, and it only takes about 30 minutes to beat. This is indeed the worst game of 2014… Expand
