It’s changing nothing in what’s the heart of the story. So we never cared that much whether the players figure out the twist early or not until the end.

And so on, and so forth.įor what it’s worth, the game is not really about the twist, as Sixth Sense is not really about the twist (the heart of the movie is the relationship between the mother and her son). Paul Prospero’s last name is from Shakespeare (from The Tempest, and if you read it you will see more reasons than one why we used this name) and Poe (from The Masque of the Red Death, a story about “man’s futile attempts to stave off death”).

The world is full of child’s hand-writing font. You begin in a long dark tunnel going towards the light. Just like it’s the case with that movie, I believe that Ethan earns its ending, too. Sixth Sense would be cheap if it didn’t have that first scene and if it weren’t full of clues. “And then the holodeck malfunctioned, and he was back to reality!” is weak. With a twist, the real question is always: is it justified? Providing a shock ending without any clues to the true nature of the viewer/reader/player’s experience is weak. But such particular motive – minutes of dying stretched into hours of adventure – is not used very often. Sure, it’s inspired in parts by Ambrose Bierce’s An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge from 1890, one of the first weird fiction stories ever. Things are not what they seem is just a template that indeed some movies and book use (“Sixth Sense”, “Identity”, etc.), but the actual execution in Ethan is fairly unique. I could argue that at its most obvious incarnation it’s not really a cliché ending. One thing that I’ve noticed is that a small percentage of reviewers have this issue with the game: We read all reviews, great and not so great, from professional reviewers and from regular gamers. Hopefully you played it to the end (but if not, turn away NOW). Hopefully by now you know that The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is out.
