Awesome idea :D!

techblogogy 2015-04-21 14:22

This is quite a game, love the art style and it was fun to play

awpteamoose 2015-04-21 14:23

+ fro the Chekhov!

voider 2015-04-21 14:28

wow that's a really amazing work, loved how you put the theme, music and graphics are excelent.

helekopeter 2015-04-21 14:37

First time i have given a 5/5 on everything

hadesfury 2015-04-21 14:44

Funny concept !
Graphics aren't exceptional but fits well with everything so its nice.

matestinha 2015-04-21 15:35

Love the mood! Also, really charming to use a hidden object for the theme :)

luizgama 2015-04-21 21:54

Amazing, a great innovation to the hidden object genre. I had so much fun with it. Also, you nailed the silent film humor and feel! 5 stars all the way

nassi 2015-04-21 22:58

Damn, the unconventional guy asked me if the thing he was going to kill me with was an antique, but he meant the CAT all along! Interesting game, played for quite a few round. Great atmosphere too.

traumendes_madchen 2015-04-22 16:08

I love the idea and the presentation, it's a funny game. But there too many items, so I can't guess what the weapon is and get killed each time ='D.

sience 2015-04-22 16:12

Great Idea and well done. The style is awesome. It reminds me on tge old adventure Cruise of a Corpse :-).

kyyrma 2015-04-22 16:28

Ha, I really wanted to make a humorous game about Chekov's gun but I just couldn't come up with a concept silly enough. You guys pulled it off! Great artstyle and the music fit so well. Loved it.

rectangular-tim 2015-04-22 17:17

This game is quite funny and feels very complete. Excellent work.

orkyorks 2015-04-22 17:18

I really enjoyed the art style for the game. It has potential but I'm having a hard time understanding what object is being hinted at.

nicklink483 2015-04-22 17:18

Always room for some high-brow humor :)

Awesome work, and I loved the old-timey feel and effects.

sublustris 2015-04-22 17:19

Hehe :) Nice GFX and humor! 5 for both.

themeorch 2015-04-22 17:20

This is fantastic! Amazing style, great humor, and just a wonderful idea executed really well.

kasmilus 2015-04-22 17:41

What a game! Hilarious, innovative, polished. I just had to choose the same weapon few times in a row, you could have done something to prevent that. Also music and graphics set up perfect mood!

dorgam 2015-04-22 18:50

Fun game I loved it !
First real humor game!

dydx 2015-04-23 02:17

Very entertaining :)

abuzreq 2015-04-23 14:06

Simply Wonderful!

somnium 2015-04-23 17:14

Excellent game! I love the atmosphere, and the puzzles are great.

dixbit 2015-04-23 17:16

Great game! The fact that the "unconventional weapon" is used by your enemies and not yourself is a very clever idea! And the graphics and music give a perfect macabre mood.

fluffy-tigers-in-the-sky 2015-04-23 19:28

Aaaahhh, this is hilarious! I love it <3

primitiveconcept 2015-04-24 18:58

This was such an awesome game! The music, the art, everything fits.

smilingcat 2015-04-24 19:02

Nice art style, unique hidden object game. Great job!

randoman 2015-04-24 19:11

Amazing game, mood as very well set! And nice use of the theme!

mase 2015-04-24 19:14

Very clever scenario. Great timing as well; I love the close-ups.

A couple times the game crashed after I played for a while.

zeriver 2015-04-24 19:23

Very unconventional idea :D
Great gameplay, graphics and music. Pretty funny game.

teamquadratic 2015-04-26 22:08

Great idea! Loved the graphics and audio. You nailed the mood! The game was actually fairly difficult for me. Excellent job overall!

chaoseed 2015-04-26 23:33

I love the "silent movie" presentation, with the graphics and music. The idea is quite clever (though I'm not much for hidden object games, heh). I guessed a couple of times and I think I got the right answer...but then this happened:

"An exception has occured, but exception handling has been disabled in this build. If you are the developer of this content, enable exceptions in your project's WebGL player settings to be able to catch the exception or see the stack trace."

I dunno, I'm using the latest version of Firefox. Anyway, what I saw was enjoyable!

sorak86 2015-04-27 03:37

Hahaha, prolly best one I played. Survived 16 times, wohu!
I finally died to a cat I couldn't afford.
Very nice, rating it high in every aspect.

sorak86 2015-04-27 03:38

Very nice, rating it high in every aspect. You got yourself 5 stars in 6 categories sir ;)

benjamck 2015-04-27 03:53

Very well done. The graphics were perfect, and the music fit the mood quite well. A clever take on the theme too; a room full of unconventional potential weapons. I have to admit I laughed out loud the first time the poor fellow died. He didn't fare too well by me, but I kept trying. This could easily be made into a fun little game for mobile devices.

chronodk 2015-04-27 06:10

This is very original, and extremely fun - top scores in every category for you!

My best Checkov score is 11. I like how there are multiple items matching each clue, so I can't just learn it all - there is some randomness to winning too.

embalaje 2015-04-27 06:51

Mistery murder game, very funny! Everything is very well done. I´ll keep playing it.

druid 2015-04-27 09:37

Lol, awesome idea! I really enjoyed this game A LOT! Great work!

zaibakk 2015-04-27 15:32

Very cool! GJ!

daltostronic 2015-04-27 23:28

I love the music!

minibobbo 2015-04-28 00:36

I only ever got three...

They kept stabbing me with expensive vases and I never saw it coming!

iamacoconut 2015-04-28 01:00

So. Much. Fun.

sergi-montaner 2015-04-28 16:21

Very intersting title.
Music really helps you get in the mood.
The way they talk is really funny.
The first time I just died because didn't pay much attention to the text.

simon-parzer 2015-04-28 22:06

This game has great atmosphere, I liked the old film sepia tone and grain. The hints are sometimes very obscure, but after some time I got better and survived 3 assasination attempts in a row!

dkoding 2015-04-28 22:41

Good sound and music, but gameplay was so-so for me. But I know there are a lot of people who will enjoy this.

ajopart 2015-04-29 07:48

Marvelous entry !

ithildin 2015-04-29 12:57

Brilliant concept, implemented wonderfully. Graphics and music are really fitting, too, and I loved the dialogue texts. Amazing job!

mrshoestore 2015-05-03 21:55

This was so much fun! The idea is great. The music fits perfectly and the entire mood is spot on. I only wish we could see some of the unconventional deaths. that might be too far but it is what I need!!!. Really great job!

asixjin 2015-05-07 06:30

I guess I just didnt get it but it is a nice game and a good use of theme

p4nurge 2015-05-08 19:18

Here's the winner for me - I loved everything about this! Ingenious, playful and beautifully made. I've given a rare set of full marks.

crowbeak 2015-05-09 02:46

The darkening and lightening used to try to recreate the old film effect wreaked havok on my ability to concentrate. Too big a difference, too often, too fast a transition, I don't know, but it made it really hard for me to do anything. Then there's the fact that I have no clue what a samovar is and it wasn't possible to view the clue again once it had gone away.

jukimv1986 2015-05-11 18:53

aha! your uncle Vanya is here! great references to Chekhov work, and awesome mechanics. I liked everything about it! Amazing work!!
