  • Die abgedrehte Geschichte watet ebenso tief wie gekonnt im Horror- und Psychothriller-Bodensatz. Phantasievolle Gruselstory.
    Heinrich Lenhardt - PC PLAYER

  • Sanitarium ... die wunderbare Welt der Wirrköpfigen...
    Einmal begonnen zog mich die intelligente Story mehr und mehr in ihren Bann. Dank geschickt eingestreuter Filmschnipsel blieb die Spannung am kochen und immer wieder setzte der berühmte "Nur noch 10 Minuten"-Effekt ein.

    Gunnar Lott - GAMESTAR

  • ...unbedingt einen intensiven Blick riskieren... Verstärkt wird die beklemmende Stimmung von Sanitarium obendrein durch einen düsteren Soundtrack, der diesen alptraumhaften Trip atmosphärisch abrundet... qualitativ hochwertige Videos.
    Chris Peller - POWERPLAY

  • Sanitarium ... sorgt für Spannung und gruselige Kurzweil.
    Thomas Borovskis - PC GAMES

  • Fantastische Alpträume...
    beklemmende Atmosphäre...
    tolle Gänsehautstory...

    ANIMATED VIOLENCE - STRONG LANGUAGE

    Contributed by Jeanne Bronze Star Contributing Member (58798) on Feb 24, 2002.

From the homepage:
    Spiraling upwards out of the void, you open your eyes and struggle to comprehend your environment. Underneath you, the springs of an institutional cot sink almost to the floor. The mattress is roughly the thickness of a paper towel, and reeks of affliction. Vague memories assault you, a hurried phone call, a message of utmost importance, a car losing control . . .

    Your head throbs. In the background, you hear people screaming, sobbing, laughing manically. Is it a nightmare? Are you insane? Is it reality? Maybe this is death.
