Overall - 8.2:
This game is a first person explorer, similar to the Namco Museum series on this system. So, with that being said, I kind of like this genre. Well, sometimes... The game is OK, but not as good as the Namco Museum series. Anyways, I don't know what the developers were thinking when they made this game. It is about the dreams you may have while taking drugs. Why they put that in a video game is totally beyond me. Maybe they decided to make an anti-drug message, or perhaps they just wanted to enforce the drug. Either way, this game sparked a lot of controversy, perhaps due to the disturbing imagery and / or the drug references. Either way, this game is still good, despite the concept of drug abuse. So, without further ado, let's get onto the review. 

Graphics - 9:
The graphics are pretty cool, I guess. In some places, they are kind of colorful. In others, they are bland. But, mostly, they are just downright creepy. There are also some weird things, such as a giant statue of a foot, creepy-looking babies, and... God, it's just so random. The backgrounds are also weird, too. You have a small house, a village, a seizure-inducing lake, a city at night, a female womb (Yes, with creepy-looking babies), and so much more. The imagery, though creepy and weird, can also be violent. In one scene, you will find a couple of dead bodies on the ground, with blood alongside them. I also remember seeing someone jump off of a bridge, and then the screen flashed red when he / she landed in the water. This game definitely deserves a mature rating. So: Graphics =  +10. Gore = -1. Grand total = 9.

Sound - 8:
This game has pretty good sound. There is realistic walking sounds ( Of course, not that it really matters, it's just...) and the occasional ominous sound to keep in the horror mood. The music is surprisingly upbeat for a horror game. But, maybe it's just there to make the game a bit more creepy (Yes, games actually do that). The sound isn't perfect, but I still sort of like it.

Addictiveness - 9:
This game is very extensive and fun to explore. You will never know when you reach an end. In fact, I have no idea how extensive this game is. This is definitely one of those pick-up-and-play games, but not a game that I would totally be obsessed with.

Story - N/A:
There is no real story to the game. All this game does is emulate a possible dream you might have while taking drugs. It's just plain messed up. I think this game is trying to say "Kids, don't do drugs, or this will happen.". And, knowing people's reactions about it, this message worked.

Depth - 7:
This game has a lot of places to explore. You can easily get lost ( Not that it matters, because there is no real gameplay and you are just walking everywhere). Anyways, this game is pretty big. It deserves only a 7 because you can't really do anything in this game.

Difficulty - 1:
You don't really do anything in the game, as far as I'm concerned. You just walk. Walk, walk, walk, and the occasional teleport to another stage. Yeah. It's still pretty fun, though.

Wrap up:
So, that's my review. What do I think of this game? All in all, it's a pretty fair game. I can't say it's my favorite Playstation game, but it's still pretty good. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed my review, and I will see you guys (and gals) later. Goodbye!

So...is this one of those "not a game, but an experience" type of game? I've never heard of this title or know it's existence, but it sounds absolutely weird.

As for your review, I feel that you could be a little bit more elaborate on your categories. I was a little confused as to why you rate the graphics a 9 when you talked mostly about how creepy the imagery are. Is creepy good? It would also be a good idea as you move forward to write about the bad as well. You've been giving these rating an imperfect score, so there should be something that you didn't like about the game. Those are as important as what you do like about the game as well. I also don't know if you would say that this game is high on depth if all you do is move around and explore. I think that is more high on content.

Those are some things that I would say you can improve on your review.

play4fun : The imagery is a bit creepy, but I put the graphics as 9 because they were good. The imagery made it from 10 to 9, but I didn't rate it down too much because it was trying to make a point. So, yes, creepy is good, but only in certain cases.

I agree with what you said about the imperfections, so I added a little explanation saying that they are not perfect, but not bad at the same time.

Depth = How much the game has to offer. The game has a lot to offer. Therefore, this game is high in depth. But, I did change depth to a 7, and I also added a nod to how simple the game is.

I've heard of this game before. It's odd to say the least (though I've never played it). Also, while I don't know if it's true or just a lame attempt to cover the truth, the person that came up with the idea for the game said LSD didn't refer to the drug, but rather stood for "Lovely Sweet Dream" and was made up of portions of dreams that she'd(?) had. That she(?) would dream these things is equally disturbing as the idea that it's about drug induced hallucinations though.

As for the review: not bad. I have a better understanding of the game now that I've read it, though I wish I could un-read the part about the bridge jumper. That truly disturbed me....like...badly. lol I can't stand things like that. : But yeah, still a good review. Keep up the good work.
