In "Scratches: Director's Cut", a careful combination of inventory-based and deductive-style puzzles, integrated with a riveting storyline, non-linear gameplay, intricately detailed graphics, and an entrancing soundtrack, immerse you in an even more haunting gothic atmosphere. As a famed horror writer isolated by a washed out road at the dark and mysterious Blackwood Manor, you search for clues to a long-held mystery. Exploring every dark corner of the mansion and its untended grounds via point-and-click interface, you examine, probe, and hunt your way through musty rooms, an overrun greenhouse, a sinister chapel, and a forbidding crypt. As your investigation deepens, you slowly become aware of one terrifying fact: you are not alone.

In addition to a breathtaking conclusion to the story in a new chapter that will stay in your nightmares for months to come, “Scratches: Director’s Cut” also features new, revealing thoughts from the main character in “Michael’s Diary”, and an alternate control method with fixed mouse, FPS-like movement.

This game has been rated “T” for Teen by the ESRB for Alcohol and Tobacco Reference/Blood/Mild Language/Mild Violence. A Mac version of the game is scheduled for release in May.
