[REVIEW] MISSING: An Interactive Thriller – Episode One
By Dan Spence on August 10th 2015
MISSING: An Interactive Thriller is an unusual game.

The collector’s edition contains all of the episodes from the game’s first season as well as a number of extras and frankly, it’s fair to say that I’m impressed.
