Anyone else got this game?

I heard about it months ago, it was out in japan and they was on about will it or won't it be out in uk.

Next thing i know, it's out in uk and called SOS: final escape.
So because of the great GAME 10 day return policy, i got it, and it's GREAT!!!!

I can't find ANY reviews ANYWHERE on the net, but i'd recommend it.
It plays kind of Res evil style but there's no zombies to kill, and your trapped on an island after an earthquake. rescueing people and trying to find a way out, of the ever changing city.

There's multiply pathways aswell, you play a different game depending on what choices you make, so it's got some reply value aswel.

good game, i'm just wondering about the size of the game, hopin it's not over to quickly cos it's good.

There's a timer on your saves, so i know i've been playin it about 5 hours, but havn't got a clue how far i'm in or how far to go. A long time i hope cos it's a top game i think.

I am really stuck at the min though and i'm resisting the temptation of searching for the solution online.


There's a review over at gamesdomain.co.uk.

As for release date, i have no idea, it was only by chance that i looked at the back of the game box and recognised it. I looked at the front cover afew times before and didn't recognise it.

Heh....just done a search for the release date of this and apart from SR (who haven't even got it down for release), Play, Virgin, Streetsonline and Amazon all have this down for a 7th March release.

So Game are upto their usual tricks of lets release the game early?

Damn, I saw a post about this a little while back, didn't even realise it was out.....game looked good with a different twist to the escape from situation genre. Sorry my mind has gone blank at the moment.

How long have you been playing it and how much longer do you think it'll take you to complete it?

Might just go and purchase this to tide me over till TR:AOD comes out.

See you've made it to Regular status after all this time. :)
