Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Some enjoyed making up their own monster in the original film that spawned this game The Blair Witch Project Vol 1: Rustin Parr, others felt cheated. Just in time for the first sequel this Halloween, the game is intended to be part of a trilogy. The loading screen starts to set up the atmosphere with weird random freakish noises like children crying, but since the game requires 850Mb HDD space and isn't the fastest loader around, this soon becomes irritating.

You control Doc Holiday--a female doctor rather than the male gunslinger--in her quest to unravel the mystery of the Blair Witch. The story setup and the training mission are combined into one. It is certainly the best time to get accustomed to the extreme third-person angles of the game, though Resident Evil fans won't have much trouble adjusting. You still have to readjust your control method because different camera angles cause different character directions onscreen although the controls remain the same, which is no real problem forTomb Raider fans, but it's the second time one of the features of Blair Witch Vol.1 has been better executed elsewhere and your technique needs to be totally relearned. One nice feature however, is the first-person night vision, which is deliberately blurred to recreate the film's night video view feel.

Since at least two more episodes are due for release by Gathering of Developers, don't kid yourself that it's all over when you get to the end. The game is average and open-minded gamers will give it a try, and persevere if they are fans of the other action/adventure series mentioned. If not, this game is a like-or-hate affair, just like the film, and shouldn't be bought without trying a demo first. --Kenneth Henry

Manufacturer's Description
Set in 1941, the first adventure pits Government special investigator Doc Holliday against the ancient evil that drove hermit Rustin Parr to abduct and slay seven children in Burkittsville, Maryland. Along the way, she has to interact with stricken townspeople, investigate hidden legends and arcane rituals, and seek to unravel a twisted mystery that still haunts the town.

Rustin Parr combines traditional adventure elements, research, exploration and puzzle solving plus a healthy dose of heart-pounding action to create a terrifying gaming experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blair Witch Volume 1:Rustin Parr, 2 Jan 2001
By Craig Winson (Nottingham, England) - See all my reviews
Brilliant! That is the only way to describe this game. Set in 1941, you take on the role of Doc Holliday, a woman sent into Burkittsville to investigate the slaying of seven children by Rustin Parr. There you must interact with the town's people, discover hidden legends and gather clues and information on Parr as well as trying to stay alive. This game has puzzles to solve along the way, as you try and unravel the twisted mystery, of what drove Parr to do this. This game has a lot of very scary & heart-pounding moments. All of the movie scenes are eerie and make u jump more then the actual movie does. The only downside to this game is that it takes a while to load each section, but the wait is well worth it. Whatever you don don't play it alone!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best game of the year, 12 Jun 2001
By A Customer
This game had me scared out my whitts! I though it would be nothing as its only a game, but i bought it after trying the demo one sunny afternoon and thought nothing of it. When i played the full version it was on the night and let me tell you the time of day really plays a big part when playing this game. The controls are a little difficult to get your head round first time as the game moves pretty fast once you start getting attacked. after a few goes though it gets easier. BUY THIS GAME!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars What the hell is that?, 9 Dec 2008
By Peter J. Hodgson "Grim" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This neat trilogy of PC games expands on the story set by the original movie quite well. The graphics are looking dated now but these are still good to play one after the other. Its a cross between Alone in the dark and Silent Hill. It is just a shame that these werent released on multi formats as the console generation would have loved these.
