Reviews for "RAPTUS"

Boring.

Although I am a fan of the old, pixel graphics, this game is barley even a game, and you won't get away with that just by acting like you are "deep" because you aren't.

I will give you three stars because this is well programmed, and the art, and animation is pretty good, but when you say this is a game, I am expecting a game, not some slow animation under the guise of "deep".

Beautiful... I don't know why I shouldnt give it a 5/5. The storytelling, the background music, the lightning, even the twist in the end were perfect. This is art and it deserves more attention!
Keep it up bro, hope to see more of it!

Thank you very much! :-)
I consider games - some of them, at least - real masterpieces.
Games are interactive, while "traditional" art is merely passive.
The interaction that you can have in a game helps you to "feel", to be "inside" the story.
And this is what I tried to achieve.

Creepy. Great Music. Very philosophical in a really necrophiliac way.

It wasn't really my taste. It seemed more like a movie than a game, the graphics were alright but I didn't really like the clicking.

I'm sorry that you didn't like RAPTUS, but I guess that you highlight its major feature: it's not a real game. At least, not in the "conventional" way. RAPTUS is an interactive fiction.
Its purpose is not "to be played", but to deliver a message. People who play it expecting to play a game, will be indeed very disappointed.
