In-game training modes are thankfully common these days, but the one in Blair Witch is just plain weird. Confused? I had to watch it through three times before I had even a rough idea of what was going on.

What you think is the intro - the main character seemingly about to be executed - is the training room and you're not going to be executed. In fact it doesn't tell you anything because there isn't one. You'd think the intro would tell you what's going on: Who you are and what you're doing. If the film confused you, then you don't stand a chance with the game.

Naturally, anything relating to murders, rituals, witches and ancient evil is going to be popular, and many fans of the film are going to rush out and buy the game no matter what it's like.which would probably be a mistake. You have been sent in to investigate the murder of seven children by one Rustin Parr, a loner who lives in the forest by town, which is said by local folklore to be haunted by the Blair Witch, who possessed Parr and forced him to murder the children. You play Elspeth 'Doc' Holliday, a member of Spookhouse a top-secret government agency set up to track spooky things (yes, the very same organization featured in Nocturne: expect obligatory appearances from familiar characters like the 'Stranger'). The game is set in the one-horse town of Burkitsville, where all the atrocities took place in the film. It turned out to be an 'action/adventure', which completely buggered its chances with the gaming cognoscenti. Let's face it, Blair Witch could have been a FPS, RTS, RPG and just about any other acronym you could think of. Exactly what you would do in this game was not. The idea that there would be a game to follow up the film's success was inevitable. One half were on the edge of their seats the whole time, the other half wondered why everyone was getting worked up over the shake-o-vision camera work and the fact that you never actually saw anything. The Blair Witch Project was a film that divided audiences like no other.
