Chilling, depressing, but well executed. Story may leave some players cold, but it's point is effectively made.
We'd love to hear what you think about the game!

That's really a walk on the dark side. Wonderfully bleak. I liked it, but it is clearly not for everyone.
EASILY THE BEST POINT AND CLICK GAME EVER!
fantastic work.
Great, perfectly bleak graphics (the emotionless eye whites!), immersive original soundtrack, atmospheric writing...
On the other hand, it has a rather awkward interface and the safe puzzle (one of the first you need to solve) is completely unfair. Finally, I felt the chilling conclusion was somewhat out of place.
Nevertheless, because of the atmosphere, the music and the unusual take on Christmas theme, I still would consider Alfred Robbins a must-play.
Fantastic game, totally worth playing. Such a depressing mood of a kind that I've not experienced in an adventure game before. You really felt like you were invested in the central character for a short time, which makes the twist of an ending even more shocking!
I completed this game the other day and thoroughly enjoyed it from begining to end.
I myself found no bugs at all.
The graphics are very well done as is the scripting and the ending is just WOW!
I definitely recommend this one.
