Wow, this was surprisingly so fun! The writing is awesome, and the world is extremely immersive. My favorite elements were the environmental storytelling, just how lived in this small yet expansive world felt. I would say, I underestimated this game when I saw it on sale on the front page. Waiter, more of that please

The lore is fairly simple, but captivating. It's been a few weeks since I've finished it and the world-building still stands strongly in my mind (admittedly, the characters slightly less so). This game has such good bones—great UI, consistent and attractive art, an inviting balance of challenges, an interesting world to explore. There are a handful of spelling mistakes and the "voice" of all the characters are a little too similar, but altogether such a blast for fans of the old-school interactive fiction games. And it's ridiculously cheap for the playtime you get (which isn't *too* long, which is such a blessing these days).

I only played one playthrough yet. It took me about 10 hours but i also didnt hurry. I took my time. The game is incredible. You can choose a lot on what to do and your decision actually affects the game quite a lot. It will not be the last time ive played this and i dont want to spoiler anything. But this game is just incredible. I enjoy the look and feel of the game a lot. I can imagine that some might be scared by the art direction but dont let that stop you from playing such an incredible game

Exactly like a cyoa book, without the tedium of notekeeping.

Simple play style, fun mysteries, not very long, but well crafted.

The visuals, writing and world building are all great. It can be a bit tedious to go through everything again on repeated playthroughs, but the first time around everything's a blast to explore.
