(Players aren't the ones performing those actions. There also are flashback scenes that show a fatal bludgeoning. The biggest issue is the story's violent moments there are graphic flashbacks showing a character's legs being cut off by a train. So, while the storyline is still very strong, it does suffer a little from its ‘do as you will’ style of play. Parents need to know that The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is a downloadable mystery/puzzle game. For instance, I missed the ‘Spaceman’ part when I first ran through it, so when I doubled back for it, that part of the story held minimal impact as I had already seen much more unfold already. However, the impact storyline can get a bit muddled if you decide not to play the game linearly. Ultimately, you want to find out what happened to Ethan, his family and who The Sleeper is for both peace of mind and to see if you can still save Ethan. The storyline is easily the strongest aspect of the game as it flirts with the paranormal while keeping the human elements front and centre. The game relies very heavily on the players desire to discover what happened to Ethan and what is wrong with his family. That is both the strength and the downfall of ‘Ethan Carter’. Using your abilities to track down integral items, you piece together all of the events and recreate them, which leads you to the next part of the story… if you decide to play it like that. As a detective with supernatural abilities, you uncover clues to help you solve puzzles in the various areas of the world as each puzzle helps you unravel the bigger, overall mystery. The game is an open world setting that lives up to its ‘doesn’t hold your hand’ claims by allowing you to proceed in the game however you see fit.
