My personal favorite. Glad i stumbled over your Post Mortem. Superb!\r\rSpend probably 40 minutes or more on this one, and finally got the 22\/22 score. You managed to make the old trap game concept fun. The ghost-mechanic is absolutely astonishing. I loved to compare my speed to other ghosts and even recognize my own ones taking the exact same routes i was taking. Great fun!"},{"author_name":"Traumendes_Madchen","author_uid":"39080","time":"Sep 12, 2014 @ 1:46pm","epoch":1410529260,"text":"Nice game.
