Tipping Point Chapter 4


If you haven't read my rant about My favorite game ever, Tipping Point, go here. http://brb5minutes.blogspot.com/2008/09/tipping-point.html
For everyone who HAS played the first three chapters, You'll be overjoyed to reliaze that Chapter 4 has finally been released. I can't give out much to the storyline. but it pretty much picks up where the last left off. You come out of the clearing and are at first greeted by an eerie-looking shack.
Here's my criticizim, as well as that of many other fans of the game. Peolpe, including me, were able to use "Brute Force" tactics in order to finish. This simply means you guess untill you get the right answer. This is the correct way to solve many puzzles, but even I personally feel unsatisfied. I missed the "Ah-HAH!" moment that you get when you actually figure the puzzle out. And that kind of thing is fine for one of the puzzles, but in this game it happened to me at least three times.
Does that mean to you, 'Don't go out and play it'? OF COURSE NOT! The visuals and sounds alone make up for that small issue. The story may be alittle dry, but it's progressing. ONCE AGAIN: If you HAVEN'T played the first three chapters, go do that right now. The story won't make any sence to you.
What the heck are you waiing for???
(Once again, I'm happy to take all of your help in the comments.)
