I absolutely loved this game!!
Just when I thought the adventure-game genre were dead, Jane Jensen comes out with this epic piece.
Terrific story.
Fascinating characters.
Innovative puzzles (maybe a tad easy at times).
And a brilliant, haunting score!
That said.. none of these elements defines a really great adventure-game.. It has to be a great atmosphere that creeps up to the player during play-through that makes the sell - And Gray Matter sold me to the limit!
The concept is pure brilliance; A scientist who believes in the supernatural, and a magician who believes in reason and logic.
That right there screams layered characterisations and storytelling.
The mystery of Laura was engaging throughout the entire game,
Spoiler: and while the ending left some loose ends, the story gave us enough tidbits to draw our own interpretation.
Just my cup of tea.
Bravo, Jensen! You did it again!
I'm rooting for a sequel in the near future...
