    The Bunker is an incredible thriller, well recorded and with a soundtrack that lives up to the expectations. It features a intriguing story that gets better as the player advances in the game. The Bunker achieves its goals.

    At worst, it's like you’ve watched a great horror/thriller with a faulty remote by your side. And if you get over that, you’ll enjoy The Bunker. Well, as enjoyable as a post-nuclear holocaust story allows, anyway.

    The direction is good, the actors are convincing. The movie experience is intense, but as a game it just never really takes off.

    The live-action stuff is atmospheric and well-shot, but The Bunker is let down by poor pacing and staid design. [Dec 2016, p.92]

    The Bunker is a well written short film with some good acting. It’s not really a game though, so it ultimately fails to live up to expectations.

    The project revives a long forgotten genre of interactive movies. It can surprise with interesting, but unfortunately a linear story, it offers good acting and a very strong atmosphere. Unfortunately, all this does not change the fact The Bunker is boring from the gameplay perspective.

    An interesting idea and a great atmosphere is killed by a badly chosen gaming form that simply isn’t consistent with the concept of the film. Ultimately, you cannot play it, or watch. [Issue #268]

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Как я понял, наноклетки из "the complex" и есть та самая болезнь, а мать - та самая девушка-врач. Буду использовать сюжет в конспекте, про героизм матери, настолько она хотела своего ребёнка защитить, что пошла на убийство.... Expand

    It's not bad game but it didn't enjoy me. I think "Missing: An Interactive Thriller" or "Contradiction: Spot the Liar" are much better.It's not bad game but it didn't enjoy me. I think "Missing: An Interactive Thriller" or "Contradiction: Spot the Liar" are much better.

    PROS: Good ambientation + Some moments of tension + Playing while character is moving is nice

    CONS: Very short + A lot of watching and a just a few playing + Visible cursor while playing movie is annoying + No puzzles (except the key code) + The interaction's moments with cursor are uninteresting + The ending

    This game going slow. And sometimes boring. The scenario is not very clear and you can understand the story before game tells you.

    As a gamer I do not recommend this game... because it's not much more than a video where you constantly have to click 'next' all the time.As a gamer I do not recommend this game... because it's not much more than a video where you constantly have to click 'next' all the time. There aren't any puzzles or anything. You have to click somewhere to get the next clip and that's mostly it. There are some quicktime-events where you have to click in a spot within a certain time (just one click, that's all) but those are only challenging if you've dozed off..

    It's just not really a game. Is the story any good? Well, it's not bad..I did to want to see the end, which isn't hard because it's friggin' short.

    Overall, I finished it.. did I enjoy it? A bit I guess but not as a game.. I prefer to have watched this as a normal video instead of one where I have to click to make it go further.

    I sure as hell would not have payed this much for it if I knew this. I should have read the other reviews first.

    Its not a game, its not a film, its not something good in between. It has a strange, weird story, idiotic interaction with a player. I dontIts not a game, its not a film, its not something good in between. It has a strange, weird story, idiotic interaction with a player. I dont really get what was the point to make this product in such format. Its either you make low-budget film, or a low-budget game. In both cases there could be a humble success. While for now i just dont understand what for i spent 3 hours of my time and money. Don't recommend at all. Expand
