Inanimate Alice «Episode 3: Russia»

    Well, I have already read the story about Alice in Russia that had been accompanied by strange music and I want to tell you about my impression. I followed the story carefully, my eyes scanned each screen from left to right, and I really enjoyed readying. The pictures were quite gloomy and scary, but they were exciting and fascinating at the same time. So you couldn’t stop following the arrows. Words appeared in different parts of the screen not very fast, so you can easily read them.  But I absolutely dislike the music, because it was strange and even disgusting.

   Most of all in episode 3 I liked that it seemed to be a real story and I worried about the heroine as about myself. I imagined what I would do if I were there.

   There were nothing difficult for me in reading this story, except some unknown words, but there were not many of them.

  The best bit about the story was game-parts where I should to catch matryoshkas, it was really funny.

  In conclusion, I want to give other readers some tips for their first digital story reading. You shouldn’t hurry, try to understand and analyze what you had read and be sure you will enjoy the process.
