✦ AI summary

Players appreciate the charming steampunk graphics, creative puzzles, and engaging story, though most note the experience is short at 2-3 hours. Common complaints include awkward English translations, overly strict puzzle mechanics that require specific object interactions, and a particularly frustrating watering pump puzzle that causes input fatigue. Despite these issues, most find it an enjoyable indie experience, though concerns exist about whether the promised sequel will ever materialize given the five-year development gap.

A great little game says it only took me 3 hours to complete but sure it was longer,puzzles not that difficult but some make you think great graphics some translation a bit off but easy to work out a couple of annoying puzzles one that taxes your mouse finger but overall an enjoyable game very entertaining and to be continued in the future...cant wait

Nice effort overall, warm graphics and nice story concept. Puzzle solutions pretty obvious still the way to get to the solutions is strict in the manner of the mechanics of the game. There are objects that exist in the game and can be picked up only after certain events, resulting in you having already tried to pick them up and considering them just background for the whole game.

Came here after getting annoyed at prices in mobile version (Gears Enigmas). And I have to say, it both better and worse than that. Mostly worse. Font is worse, translations are way worse. Some puzzles are better, but only because they were clearly re-done for mobile version (mostly to be easier). Point it, I do not think this game will ever get out of Early Access ("3-6 months", sure), because mobile is cleraly making way more money selling hints and access to that promised second chapter.

I hesitate to recommend the game I fully enjoyed it for a long time and then I got to the place where you use a pump handle to fill a watering pot and I had the same problem that a few others complained about. I wore out my fingers doing a fast and faster tapping on my keyboard to fill the pump and it would never go all the way to the top and finish the full pot. So, up until that point which is not extremely far from the end, I really liked the game. The only other thing is the English wording in their conversations is weird but easy to ignore and go on with the game. I could not find a fix or suggestion about getting the water pot to pump full so I guess this is another game I cannot finish....not the first game like that either. Good game except for the above.

This is a really nice little game. I loved the steam punk graphics and the characters were charming. The story was alright if a little confusing at the start and end (who were those two guys hanging around outside?). The puzzles were a pretty good attempt at originality and not too hard or too easy. The dialogue let things down a bit as it was badly translated (quite funny in places) into English but I got the gist. I nearly gave up trying to fill the watering can until I realised I needed to use both left and right mouse buttons in quick succession. It was very short (about 2-3 hours - although I had the help of a walk through) and it seems that the developer intended to continue the story, but 5 years have gone by since the release so I guess it maybe didn't make enough money to warrant another one. Very sad really because I would have bought the follow up. It reminds me a little of the games developed by Cotton Game, which I love. So a definite thumbs up from me with some reservations which could easily be improved.
