iPhone adventure game 1112 Episode 1 goes free for a day

Mulholland Drive meets Dave Dickinson

iPhone adventure game 1112 Episode 1 goes free for a day

| 1112 episode 01

1112 is an odd adventure series. The first episode came out over a year ago to a mixture of acclaim and bemusement, showing much promise in style but suffering from a few niggles in execution. Then, a few months ago Episode 2 was met with a cooler reception, having failed to address the flaws of its forerunner. So the first game is probably more worthwhile than the second, and for the rest of today it has the added benefit of being free.

1112 Episode 1 stars frustrated, middle-class antique-peddler Louis Everett and his snooping, yet undeniably fit, wife.

Aside from an overly meddlesome wife, Louis has two other major problems: strange dreams and constant headaches.

Taking up the role of the American David Dickinson, you're introduced to a motley crew from whom you must garner information to solve the mystery of the migraines.

A tutorial is provided to help you navigate through the beautifully presented story, its collection of puzzles, and the surroundings themselves.

For one day and one day only 1112 episode 01 is free as part of OpenFeint’s ongoing promotion.
