I came out of MISSING feeling quite surprised. I’m invested in and intrigued by the story enough that I’m excited for what this series has in store.

I can’t deny that I enjoyed it. It proved a fun little distraction perfectly timed to kill a drying cycle in the laundry room on a Sunday afternoon. And I’ll gladly play the next episode, whenever it arrives.

So far, Missing: An Interactive Thriller shows promise. The puzzles might not be mind-bending, but they display a bit of toughness while the presentation is rather top-notch, good enough to break the stigma of bad acting that was previously associated with the genre. The length does hurt it, but the story is intriguing enough to make you want to see where it goes.

Missing: An Interactive Thriller – Episode One feels a little incomplete, even for an episodic series. The episode was too short and the puzzles were dissapointing, but that doesn’t make the episode as a whole terrible.

Episode 1 of Missing is a nice looking FMV with decent acting, detailed set-pieces, and little else. While this is only the beginning, my interest in finding out who captured David and why is tempered by relative disinterest in the characters themselves and the events surrounding them.
