 Class is in session at leafmore high, any transfers?.... August 5, 2008

This is a fun game that follows in the style of resident evil if claire redfield ever took high school. This is really fun and if you are bored and waiting around for another creepy title to show up well this is one you should defendently check out.
It looks like a bomb type of game, but don't let it fool you. This game is a lot of fun and it will be sure to keep you after class......
what happens at school after dark?;) October 18, 2007

I dont understand why some people keep bashing this game.Ok, maybe they stole some idea\character from the Faculty movie, but that movie was good and the game is too.How many times I was dreaming to stay in my school for a night,just to wander in the dark scary corridors.How many times I was dreaming that city will be envaded with zombies...wait,I got carried away,its not about this game;)Anyways,Obscure gives an oppotunity to come back to school and see what happens there at night.With a nice original music score;) Also I like the idea of 2 players option, and that you can switch characters (in whole there are 6 of them in the game).
Now what I dont like... I think the game is a bit too short/easy, and theres not much value in replaying,no hidden scanerions, secrets or anything.
Overall I still would suggest this game to all survival horror lovers.

When I first got this game I was really drawn in by the graphics and the sorta go where you want and do what you want aspect.
You've got the sereotypical kids from a horror movie staying the night in the high school looking for the stereotypical JOCK who disapeared in the first of the game..
You've got an ungodly creepy high school that should have raised suspicion earlier (I mean couldn't they see that the lockers were all rusty and the windows were blacked out in the daylight?
but I fell in love..I played it non stop for about four or five days until it got really hard and I gave up?
but I absolutely loved the game, and when I went back to it recently I had forgotten how to play it.. but it was still hard and I still gave up
but I still loved it!
but yeah :)
I'm out!
I Loved it ! March 2, 2006

Since I like the Resident Evil Series and I'm a Fan of Horror Movies, I decided to give it a Try ... and I loved it !
The Fact that you can play this in Co-op Mode is also a Plus for me and I've missed it on a lot of good Games.
The Controls are easy, the Gameplay a blast, the Interaction between the Characters is Fun and I liked the Fact that you can choose between the Characters when the Need arises ... although I stuck with one the whole Game through.
I liked the Graphics and the "scary" Factor is not bad at all ... gets your Adrenalin pumping. Yes, it is Somewhat of a "Slasher Movie" type Game, but that's just another Part that makes it so much Fun, because it's done well.
It's hard enough to be challenging, but not so hard that you get frustrated. It was well worth the Try ... you won't be disappointed !
Relive High School... All Over Again January 22, 2006

When you first start the game it shows you a little video and it will have Sum 41's music playing to it. That just really sets the mood. It gives you the whole feel of High School all over again. After that you start the game as Kenny who then goes missing. When his sister and girlfriend start talking they both realize that he never came home last night. They decide to lock themselves in after school when everyone has gone home to look for him.
When I frist saw this game I thought it would be a really good game to play. I wasn't completely wrong. This game tends to resemble the Resident Evil and Haunting Ground series. It resembles these games in the aspect that the enviroments tend to go back on their selves. What I mean is you have all these doors most are locked but when you find a key to one of the locked doors and go inside there is usually a few more doors in that room but one of the doors leads back to a area of the shcool you have already visited. I really like that aspect because it cuts down on all the long back tracking most games have you go through just to get back from point B to point A. Another aspect it takes on from those games is that it has a map which shows which building you're currently in. But this game has a neat little feature added to its mapping system. Oh yes I like this little feature. =) In this game, at some point in the game anyway, you will look at your map and it will show you the room you're currently in and all the rooms around it, BUT the map will have either a red check or some kind of red mark at the doors you have already enterd and a red X at the doors you haven't enter or that or locked. I haven't figure out if the x means you haven't enter it yet or its locked 'cause all the doors I haven't enter yet or locked so who knows.
This game also has a lot of cut scenes. I would have to say that within the first few mins of playing this game you will have been exposed to 7 cut scenes. The cut scenes are really great. They just make this game seem to take on a life of its own.
The only two things I really didn't like about this game were the controls and the health system. There were so many different controls that did so many different things. It takes a while to get used to them so I would suggest you play around with the contorls and get familiar with them before you find a monster. The health system. Aww yes. Now how much health does my person have again. I don't know O_o. This game pretty much leaves you flying blind when it comes to your characters health. It doesn't show you on the screen how much health your person has but you will get little hints that your person is near death almost. If your person has lost a good amount of health the controller will vibrate and your character will do what the characters in the Resident Evil Series did, they will start limping, holding their side and walk/run slowly. I did learn a neat little trick to figure out how bad my person is hurt. If you go to the screen where you have your map at the top it will have some other tabs like I think one was documents and another one was characters. Go the characters tab and whoever your current character is, the character you're currently controling, look at their picture and it will give you a pretty good idea of how bad they're hurt. When they have not had any damage done to them they're picture is nice and clean, whenever they take on damage they're picture slowly starts getting bloody.
Over all I really liked this game. This game is like in a class by itself in the whole horror games listing. The majority of the other horror games I've played have been set in some kind of town except for a few. This is the first horror game that makes going to High School terrifying and makes you thankful you don't go to High School any more.
