Calling is crappy rip off with all the standard horror-tricks in the book.

  • spooky atmospheric locations
  • All story elements are stolen/borrowed
  • Calling does not scare you at all
  • Stupid wii-mote waving to get rid of ghosts
For Kids? : No, although it is not really scary, the game is rated Teen.

Horror adventure that centers around a website that you shouldn't visit.

In Calling, players begin by visiting a mysterious Black Page website with a simple number counter. Some say it is a bridge to something sinister; the counter indicating the number of people who have died after visiting the page. It is said that people who have visited the site and witness a certain event are drawn into a mysterious space compiled of the memories of the dead - the space between life and death. Someone or something is drawing the living there for a reason, and it is up to the player to discover the horrifying truth. In order to do so, players will use various equipment including flash lights, phones, and other items to navigate and escape the Calling.

Throughout the game players will visit various parts of the Calling world. Memories of houses, schools, hospitals and more bring players closer to either an escape or an untimely death. Players will solve puzzles, search and interact with objects, and ultimately try to avoid the inhabitans of this alternative existence.

Calling is a complete rip off. Not only is the game based on The Ring (and many other Japanese horror stories) it also borrows all the elements that should make this game great. But although they try to steal all the good stuff from others, they fail miserably in creating a good game. This should be a horror adventure that gives you the creeps and sleepless nights. Instead it gives you some wonky ghosts, stupid wii mote waving and not a slight tingle of fear. Avoid when you can.
