The points in which the paintings start coming off the walls scare the hell out of me every time and again it’s not a game for those who’re scared by their own shadows. That’s not saying it isn’t scary at times. There aren’t so many points that require good reaction times and it’s very much more focused on the puzzle element over scaring the bejeezus out of you. What I love about Ib is that while it’s still quite jumpy at times, it’s not as fast-paced as, say, The Witch’s House. In her search for the missing exhibit guests and her parents, she finds that things aren’t quite as they once appeared as the gallery takes a more malicious turn. As she moves past the numerous exhibits she realises suddenly that she’s alone. Ib is a young girl visiting an art gallery with her parents. Replaying through The Crooked Man has reminded me of my love of pixelated horrors so without further ado we’re looking at Ib (pronounced *eeb*) designed in the RPG Maker 2000 by kouri. This week’s choice is running somewhat off my choice for last week. That’s right Spewers it’s the best day of the week. Not only is Friday a day to celebrate the oncoming weekend, get a takeaway and go out for a couple of bevvies with your friends and family, for us here at GameSpew it’s time for #FreeGameFriday.
