Third Person

"This game should have been titled Blair Witch Volume 1: Lost in the Woods, for that is exactly where half my game was spent. To put it another way--and mothers, you may want to cover your children's ears as I am about to utter a four-letter word of the worst magnitude--half of Blair Witch is a ... maze. The bane of every adventure gamer; the most vile creation in the history of gaming. Sure, you can eventually memorize the paths in the forest, especially after you have wandered through the same areas dozens of times, but what happens once you have accomplished this feat? Why, the Blair Witch casts a hex on the woods that alters the layout of the paths. Phooey, I say to the Blair Witch (jeez, I hope she really doesn't exist!).

"Still, Terminal Reality and G.O.D. are to be commended for releasing this groundbreaking game. But, just as a friend's most looked-forward-to game, Arcatera, turned into her biggest disappointment of the year, so has Blair Witch for me. The talent is there, as is a "feel" for the product, but if you want to break new ground, then you need to let go of outdated traditions. The gunplay is totally out of place, and the forest mazes are ... well, I've said enough about them."
