    2. 7:441112 Episode 01, an iPhone special by Adventure TreffAdventure Treff · 4 August 2009In its second iPhone special on independent games, the German adventure site Adventure Treff shows off Episode 01, in which you play Louis Everett. It plays the opening at the Everetts’ house: shaking the iPhone to stop the jammed alarm clock, finding the safe’s code in the steamed-up bathroom mirror on Anna Everett’s hint and turning the safe’s dial with two fingers, along with the green topics, the typed questions (likened to Harvester), the map and the 3D inventory. Its verdict: one of the most important indie adventures on the iPhone, though short, about four hours, and ending on a cliffhanger. In German, with English captions.Captions

    9. 9:071112 Episode 03 HD, played on JeuxVideo.comJeuxVideo.com · 20 September 2011Two JeuxVideo.com presenters play Episode 03 HD on the iPad. They tour the Everetts’ house in Jalonsville, say the title is its house number, and note that Louis Everett looks like Johnny Depp, with Polanski’s The Ninth Gate among the developers’ influences. Then they get through a locked door at Astrid’s house in the dark, sliding paper under it and pushing the key out with a hanger. They reckon on about eight hours of play, against two or three for Episode 01, and pass on that six episodes were planned. In French, with English captions.Captions
