Anton Chekhov, a famous Russian writer, is very suspicious - every time someone mentions an object, he thinks that said object will be used to kill him; otherwise, why mention that object at all?
Help Chekhov to survive as long as possible in this weird 19th century varieté hidden object game.
Amazing, a great innovation to the hidden object genre. I had so much fun with it. Also, you nailed the silent film humor and feel! 5 stars all the way
Damn, the unconventional guy asked me if the thing he was going to kill me with was an antique, but he meant the CAT all along! Interesting game, played for quite a few round. Great atmosphere too.

I love the idea and the presentation, it's a funny game. But there too many items, so I can't guess what the weapon is and get killed each time ='D.
Ha, I really wanted to make a humorous game about Chekov's gun but I just couldn't come up with a concept silly enough. You guys pulled it off! Great artstyle and the music fit so well. Loved it.
What a game! Hilarious, innovative, polished. I just had to choose the same weapon few times in a row, you could have done something to prevent that. Also music and graphics set up perfect mood!
Great game! The fact that the "unconventional weapon" is used by your enemies and not yourself is a very clever idea! And the graphics and music give a perfect macabre mood.
I love the "silent movie" presentation, with the graphics and music. The idea is quite clever (though I'm not much for hidden object games, heh). I guessed a couple of times and I think I got the right answer...but then this happened:
"An exception has occured, but exception handling has been disabled in this build. If you are the developer of this content, enable exceptions in your project's WebGL player settings to be able to catch the exception or see the stack trace."
I dunno, I'm using the latest version of Firefox. Anyway, what I saw was enjoyable!
Hahaha, prolly best one I played. Survived 16 times, wohu! I finally died to a cat I couldn't afford. Very nice, rating it high in every aspect. You got yourself 5 stars in 6 categories sir ;)
Very well done. The graphics were perfect, and the music fit the mood quite well. A clever take on the theme too; a room full of unconventional potential weapons. I have to admit I laughed out loud the first time the poor fellow died. He didn't fare too well by me, but I kept trying. This could easily be made into a fun little game for mobile devices.
This is very original, and extremely fun - top scores in every category for you!
My best Checkov score is 11. I like how there are multiple items matching each clue, so I can't just learn it all - there is some randomness to winning too.
Very intersting title. Music really helps you get in the mood. The way they talk is really funny. The first time I just died because didn't pay much attention to the text.
This game has great atmosphere, I liked the old film sepia tone and grain. The hints are sometimes very obscure, but after some time I got better and survived 3 assasination attempts in a row!
This was so much fun! The idea is great. The music fits perfectly and the entire mood is spot on. I only wish we could see some of the unconventional deaths. that might be too far but it is what I need!!!. Really great job!
The darkening and lightening used to try to recreate the old film effect wreaked havok on my ability to concentrate. Too big a difference, too often, too fast a transition, I don't know, but it made it really hard for me to do anything. Then there's the fact that I have no clue what a samovar is and it wasn't possible to view the clue again once it had gone away.

Graphics aren't exceptional but fits well with everything so its nice.
Awesome work, and I loved the old-timey feel and effects.
First real humor game!
A couple times the game crashed after I played for a while.
Great gameplay, graphics and music. Pretty funny game.

They kept stabbing me with expensive vases and I never saw it coming!
