Looks like it could be worth a little time.

    That looks.... strange. Certainly got unique gameplay and I quite like the music. I think I'd have to see a demo though.

    I enjoyed the trailer. Interesting idea, handsome style and moody music. So far so good but it needs a final game to know if it's really a good one or not. Sadly no PC/Mac version. What i love about Double Fine is that they dare something different.

    The world is basically Russian Grim Fandango, isn't it? If it was on PC, I'd buy it. Damn, I need a console.

    Trailers like this remind me of just what makes Double Fine so special. They're indie developers without the limitations of being indie.

    I'll be buying this no matter how it turns out, just because somebody at Double Fine said "Hey, let's do a game about matryoshka dolls at a train station", and somebody else actually listened. That is awesome.

    I agree with tredlow, the style of the game definetely feels like Grim Fandango in Russia. And, as Grim Fandango was one of the best games ever made, it's probably going to be a first day purchase for me once it's released on my trusty PS3.

    This seems really interesting, too bad they decided not to release it for PC again, which means I won't be able to play it.

    Yeah, Tim said something about that. I think it was that the publisher doesn't want them to release for PC... Real shame, as PC is where it's at :P

    I'm all over this concept. Just looks hilarious and fun. You can could be inside 3 people at once! It's like university all over again!

    I certainly don't miss the itching and the burning though :o

    Game looks absolutely fantastic, I really hope they do make a PC version at some point.

    grabbed the game on tuesday... AWESOME game... a little easy to get through, but the game is all about finding alternate ways to complete puzzles, so it's going to end up having some decent length to it ^_^

    Fun game so far. I like the animation, although the silent-movie cutscenes are a bit slow paced, everything else is lively and amusing, and I really like the stop-motion and found-objects look.
