I bought Haunting Ground recently. I really hadn’t played many survival horror games. But I played my friends imported copy of Rule of Rose and then sought out similar games and found this. Of course, one my friend heard I was playing Haunting Ground - she insisted she played it too. So now we both play.
Anyway, I find Fiona quite a realistic character and I enjoy playing her, actually. The relationship she has with Hewie the dog is cute, and so far, I would recommend this game to most people.
