I enjoy quirky, original games… and I especially love FMV. Voyeur scratches the itch for both. Recommended.

Killing Stream
Killing Stream is a feature-length, interactive thriller with horror elements, in which fate of the main character depends entirely on the viewer. It tells the story from a first person perspective to intensify the immersion and put audience in the main character’s shoes.
Try to survive… Killing Stream.
Bloodshore
Just finished the first run, and got a well-deserved bromance ending. The production value of this FMV game is a lot higher than previous Wales Interactive games. We have certainly came a long way from their earlier works like Late Shift.
This game is exactly what I wanted from a battle royale movie - bloody, campy, morally grey characters, and full of plot twists. They must have a bigger budget this time because the camera work feel really professional, and the scenes are beautifully shot.
My first run took about 90 minutes to complete, and the final ending screen shows I saw about 60 scenes out of 250, so I am guessing there’s probably another two or three routes I can play through.

The game of survival in some lost island-wooded area begins, and you are still its living protagonist. If we look for the closest comparisons, then not even the film “The Running Man” comes to mind, but the film “The Hunt” (2020), the mood of these two projects is quite similar. Although «Bloodshore» is less subtle in handling irony, preferring to use black humor in a more straightforward manner, overall it conveys very faithfully the analysis of social problems centered on a small piece of territory. FMV genre allows you to fully immerse the player in the atmosphere of survival, giving him the opportunity to fully choose his own path. And in terms of choosing a path, the game takes a big step forward compared to some of the latest projects of the publisher, here you actually feel the ramification of many plot routes, and the endings feel very different. Yes, it seemed to me that some of the script opportunities were not fully used (this concerns the breaking storylines of Otts and Gavin; the much larger use of a potential collision with “death row prisoners”; the greater influence of “cowardly” behavior on various events). The characters very vividly recreate the atmosphere of the B-movie, where deliberate grotesqueness is intertwined with swanky fun. The main character is generally very charming, playing for him is very exciting; the actor coped with his task cool. The plot twists are varied, several times I caught myself thinking that I am really surprised at some moments. As for the special effects and gunshots… Let’s just say, write off their nondescriptness to the fact that in this the game is trying to be similar to B-movies. I was glad that this time there is no need to wait for any patches to skip previously viewed scenes, the TAB key helps to significantly speed up replay.

Late Shift
There are a few really good FMV games around but in general there is a drought of this genre so people who love this kind of game just have to take what they are given. Late Shift is good but the lack of a skip function really drags the playtime out and I found myself 100%-ing this game with a grimace on my face towards the end. Don’t get me wrong, the story was good but it wasn’t good enough to keep me engaged and to play through it in fully 9 times. See the full review here

This looks great, and is surprisingly interesting as a movie. As others have said, it’s probably the most successfully implemented FMV game ever made, which isn’t really that high of a mountain to climb. In fact, it’s probably more successful as a movie than as a game. There’s not much “play” in it, and what there is is fatally undermined by the design.
The theme of the game, spelled out by the protagonist in the opening narration, is that choices define who you are. And more specifically they define who you are internally - your reason for making a certain decision is, in many ways, more important than what the decision actually was.

好久不见 - Long Time No See
I think there’s a bug? I can’t get my bad ending 2 and 3?

Nice mystery and for a good price too! The actors/actresses did a great job acting out their roles. The story plot was really interesting and I love how you can use the flowchart to change your decisions rather than having to restart the game from the very beginning. If you are a fan of mystery games, point & click, and loves a good story, I would recommend giving this game a try.

Fiendish Thieves
A short interactive horror movie about 2 thieves that search for vintage items in an abandoned warehouse. The movie is a perfect mix between Home alone and Frankenstein with a lot of slapstick humor!
– Real player with 7.8 hrs in game
Fiendish Thieves is a short game that can be finished in under an hour, but multiple playthroughs are required to see all of the different scenes. I would say the game leans more on the side of comedy. If you’re a fan of B-movie horror, then this should be right up your alley.

Vegas Tales
The owner of the fabulous Bellflower Casino Hotel in Las Vegas is terminally ill. Having devoted his life to running his hotel, he never made time for family or friends. With no obvious heir, he’s hired you to help him choose the right person to inherit the Bellflower. He narrowed his list of candidates down to a small group of people who have strong personal connections to the hotel, but whom he knows little else about. They’ve agreed to be interviewed by you under the pretense that you’re writing a book about the Bellflower Hotel. None of them know what’s truly at stake. It’s up to you to get to know these people and determine which of them is most worthy of inheriting the Bellflower. This will be no easy task, as the group contains some unique and memorable characters who will make your decision quite difficult. Be careful though, as there may be more to some than meets the eye.
Five Dates
TLDR; One of the best “full motion video (FMV)” games BUT MIGHT NOT FOR EVERYONE.
Alright, After spending over 7 hours I can say this firmly, hands down to one of the best FMV games I’ve played. The game puts you in a character called “Viny” a 5'9 good looking guy, with dates via a dating app.
I must say the game-play is quite amazing and one can sense the efforts had to put behind the making.
I think, The actors did fantastic job justifying their roles and the personalities. IMO, the game is not meant for everyone, since game actually has quite a bit interesting angles in every single personality. The decisions decides the further path of the game/relationship on the choice you make/actions you take.

I recommend this game to nearly anyone.
The mechanics are very simple. You basically have to pick-up choices and ask questions. Just be careful so you wont hit a nerve. Your background, customizable at the beginning, can also have a profound impact on how each girl will relate to your character.
In addition, this is a game that practically demands replays. As your character uses the free version of a dating app, he is only entitled to pick up 3 possible candidates on his first pass. On his second pass, even if he is deemed acceptable by all 3 previous women, he is limited to 2 virtual dates. On the final pass, you are restricted to the “final girl”.

Flesh Eating Geriatric Internet Predator
Neutral rating overall.
It’s different, a simple “game” but I dig it. I also like one of the songs they did.
As of now achievements are still not working and not all things can be skipped while playing it seems.

It isn’t a masterpiece of cinema or gaming, but from the title you should already know what to expect. I don’t understand all the negative reviews that seem to have had no idea what they bought in the first place. The gameplay aspect of it is just random guessing, one right out of three choices. The movie aspect is grindhouse low budget cinema, which it captures wonderfully in my opinion. The aesthetics of some of the shots and characters is really well done for an indy team. I like it a lot.

She Sees Red - Interactive Movie
I liked Late Shift and I bought this game as it’s similar to that game, I finished my first play within 45 minutes and got a good ending don’t know if it’s best, this game has various choices to select like Late Shift but it’s shorter than Late Shift, when I started my play the game mentioned to play it twice to reveal more of the story.
As for the story it’s so fast players will be confused when they start the game as it progress they will get to know what is happening and what was this all about. There are around 15 achievements and I only managed to get 5 on my first time playing the game.

“She Sees Red” is a short, well-produced interactive movie that can take radically different turns depending on your choices.
The story is standard thriller material with murders in a nightclub, drugs, two detectives on an investigation, and some allusions to organized crime. The narrative is interesting and mysterious, particularly because you play both the detective and the killer. While you take moment-to-moment decisions like “fight or flee”, the motives of these characters remain unknown at first. But as you replay the game and discover more endings, secrets about each main character are revealed, until you understand the full picture.
