Five Days a Stranger is an extremely well made horror adventure game which will keep you on the edge of your seat. The game is such an engaging experience that it qualifies for the title of psychological horror rather than providing pure slasher-type thrills.
Five Days is a medium-length free adventure game with a haunted mansion theme, made with the AGS Engine.
Star of the game is Trilby, mysterious, cunning and immaculately dressed, he is an enigma to his contemporaries and a nightmare to his pursuers. An expert at stealth, gymnastics and lockpicking, he can get in and out of any stronghold before anyone even realises he's in the area. Having evaded the police for many years and restricted himself to robbing only the rich, Trilby has made himself out as something of a hero to the downtrodden. He doesn't make mistakes often, but breaking into DeFoe Manor may be his worst, and potentially, his last...

What is the point of posting if you don't comment on the game or a discussion going on?Sorry I am doing a bad example of what I just said because I haven't played the game. Thats why I am at the User Comments. I was trying to find out something about the game...
Five Days a Stranger
Its a good old style game but theres a few obscure things too do, you'll most likley get stuck.
Five Days a Stranger

Five Days a Stranger
This game is suprisingly good if you try it out. (With a good imagination, this can be a very fun game) I just got to the second day, and i'll post anything I find out if anyone needs it. Oh and Anonymous at 2:3, you played the original two monkey islands? Those games bring back memories... :)
Five Days a Stranger

This comment reminds me on an old Quake advertisement.
Five Days a Stranger
Well I can't believe it, user comments on megagames that aren't full of idiotic remarks about various things. Let's hope its the shape of things to come =)
Five Days a Stranger

Five Days a Stranger

Five Days a Stranger

Five Days a Stranger

Five Days a Stranger
Pretty good, not your average run of the mill amateur stuff. Nice work.
Five Days a Stranger
it's better than half-life2 that's for sure
Five Days a Stranger
sh*t is very hard to find the dead bodys in the basement, it took me hours! A Really nice game! UP!
Five Days a Stranger
When you are in the bath room, and the killer show up, take action to the carpet, and aha! surprise! I love this game.
Five Days a Stranger
no excuses for anyone who doesn't d/load this game who likes the look of it cause it's only just over a mb, even small enough for dial up user's. Anonymous i wouldn't say it's better than hl2 lol that's a bit far, but it certianly will pass an hour or 2 if you get right in2 it
Five Days a Stranger
I am in the day 5th, but I am stuck :S. I really think is a good game, because it isn't easy!

Five Days a Stranger
Wow great game
Five Days a Stranger
Feels like the old school games like monkey island 1 or maniac mansion, just cool and makes u think hard about what to do and how to interact with stuff, good one yet maybe a lil short, one afternoon of fun, i would say. Liked to play it and feeling like playing old skool game, nice one :)
Five Days a Stranger
i sat up ALL night to beat 7 day's a skeptic & i beat it. I'm not proud of myself since i used the walkthrough at some parts (which myself am not impressed with) i never use guids for real games..anyway,i hope they make another game called 10 days a tangarine or sutin. You gotta find out who ate the tangarine in 10 days & er.....well...yea whatever um....anyway, i beat 7 day's a sk.....er...i told you already...em...cheerio

5 DAYS A STRANGERFAQDAY 1Q. What am I supposed to be doing?For the first day, you're just exploring the house and getting to know its inhabitants.The first person you need to find is Philip, who is waiting in the trophy room. You canonly find the others once you have found him.Q. How do I open the locked doors?You don't, at least not now. You will have the opportunity later on.Q. Where's Simone?She's upstairs.Q. Where's Jim?You can only find him once you've found Simone. Push the tree in the back garden, thentalk to it.Q. Where's AJ?AJ is nowhere to be found. Once you have located the others, just go to the lounge.Q. What am I supposed to do in the lounge?Just talk. Talk about everything you can. Eventually, the scene will end by itself.DAY TWOQ. Now what am I supposed to be doing?Your task is to locate AJ, who is still missing after your encounter with him yesterday.Restrict your attentions to the back yard.Q. How do I drain the pool?You'll need to find where the pipeline leads. Since it goes under the lawn, you can'ttrack it without a metal detector. Fortunately, it just so happens that Philip brought one.Q. How do I get the metal detector off him?He'll only give you it when he finds the underground tomb, or after he sees evidence thatit is elsewhere. Such information could probably be found on a map, or architectural plan.Q. Where do I get one of those?Someone has been able to break open one of the upstairs doors. This is the library. Amap can be found in one of the sections of bookshelves. After looking at it, you can showit to Phil. Note that you can only take the map after you've spoken to Phil about theunderground tomb.Q. What do I do with the metal detector?Use it on the pipeline by the pool, and it will lead you to a certain mound of dirt inthe lawn.Q. What does the button do?Press it once and go
