Want a game filled with suspense? Here you go.
Some reviewers thought this game wasn't scary enough, but I enjoyed it and thought it played fairly well. The rain and grey atmosphere gave a definite dreary quality to the abandoned town, creating a Silent Hill-esque atmosphere. Still, what really caught my attention was the music--though not necessarily in a good way.
The creepy music fades in and out intermittently, and fits the game to a T--but it got irritating after a while, because at times the music would be barely audible and at times it would be loud enough to be just on the border of annoyance. Don't get me wrong--it's a very clever idea and definitely adds to the suspenseful atmosphere, but just a bit less contrast would be nice.
The only other (minor) complaint I have is with a glitch that others are experiencing as well--check out the forums for more info on that, as I can't say too much here without spoilers, but it was aggravating and might be something, like the music, that could be fixable.
Overall, it was a good, solid game and I do recommend it despite its flaws.

Nice game
Played expert level. Graphics were occasionally grainy, but interesting, HO's fairly well defined. The story is a bit weak, and there is the usual skeletons and blood, but overall I enjoyed it. Voice over was not over done...I liked the intermittent rain. Because it is rainy, the graphics are pretty much grey and muted. The Hint option was helpful, but did not give too much away. It helped me avoid retracing my steps haphazardly when I was stuck. The journal saves clues, but I did not find it to be a lot of help other than recording a code. Gave several hours of playing time. Not a lot of puzzles, and they were not too difficult, but I liked the way the game broke up into puzzles, HO, and searching for 'useful' items.

Shiver: Vanishing Hitchiker, This one is a keeper....
I loved this game. The theme tune is actually belonging to Tomb Raider Underworld, so for all you Lara fans...The characters look real, the story interesting and scenes were clear and hidd obj scenes were organized. This is a game I'd play across the platforms.
A game similar to this was: Voodoo Whisperer Curse of a Legend, and Enigmatis: The Ghosts of Maple Creek

Very enjoyable!
After playing the trial, I decided it looked intresting enough to buy. I was right! It is a very enjoyable game, the graphics are good, the puzzles are well balanced with a rechargable hint system. The hidden object scenes are a little on the easy side, but enjoyable none the less.
Some games only take a few hours to complete but this took a lot longer. The story line is good, but ended rather ubruptly, which is a shame.

Shivered Me Timbers..
I didn't find this game to be "scary" per se, but it had a gloomy, surreal atmosphere that hooked me. It didn't have the best graphics I've seen, but the sort of haziness added to the atmosphere. I did need some hints on where to 'go next' a couple times, but otherwise it was pretty easy to follow. The H/O scenes were 'do-able' without being too easy or too hard. The puzzles ranged from somewhat easy to challenging, depending on your skill level with certain things. I would recommend this game; it's perfect for a dark, rainy night alone!

Like a Book I couldn't put down!
Great game! I enjoyed it and was bummed that it ended. I was happy the collector's edition had some extras at the end though.

Shiver: Vanishing Hitchhiker
It is a well constructed game with a great story. Much excitement and anticipation to it. I have the Collectors Edition and find the extra really adds to the game. This is one of many their many great games.

Enjoyable Game!
Shiver: Vanishing Hitchhiker is a hidden object adventure game. The story centers around trying to locate a mysterious hitchhiker. The graphics are beautiful, the story is creepy and engaging, and the gameplay is enjoyable.
There are two difficulty settings for the game, and I played on the advanced difficulty mode. The puzzles were interesting, and a few were unique, but none were very challenging. I really liked the graphics of this game, and the story kept me riveted. I completed the game in around three hours, without skipping any puzzles, so I'd say it's average length. Even on the advanced difficulty mode there were some sparkles hinting that there was an area that needed to be examined closely.
Overall, I really enjoyed this game.

Short but worth the expense
Nothing bad to say about this game which offers only good features: intro, voice-over, narrative, graphics, a slightly creepy atmosphere, neat HO Scenes and plenty of things to do. Plus a very good musical soundtrack.
However, the game doesn't have many puzzles, just a few minigames, and everything is easy. With 5 chapters the SE only offers a short playtime, hardly more than 4 to 5 hours, so it might be a good idea to consider the CE if your budget allows.

One of our Favorites
Our family LOVED this game. It had all the components we enjoy...made us jump, kept us in suspense, and the storyline hooked us from the beginning. Great visual effects/scare factor.
