Very simple and interesting. I guess I got exactly what I expected. Awesome game.
Love how fully drawn the characters feel in such a small package and the worldbuilding is delightful. The puzzles didn't feel too obtuse or too obvious.
An absolutely brilliant text-based game that has a really interesting take on the combination of magic and technology. Along with it is an amazing premise about an AI Fire Spirit developing consciousness, which I adore as a concept. And both are executed amazingly. I loved it since I first played it when it was first put online, which is where the majority of my hours are. It was a fun, short game- and with time it was expanded to be so much more. A single playthrough takes only a couple of hours, but there are a LOT of different paths and possibilities to explore. So it's cheap, it's fast, and it's brilliant. Absolutely worth your time and money.
This is a really good and creative game with a neat story. I actually got it during an Itch giveaway a few years ago and liked it so much I bought it here on Steam, though it's taken me a while to play it again here and write a review. The gameplay is simple but the story is fun.
Short *and* sweet, like it's remarkable how much I cared about these characters given how brief a time I spent with them. It's over quickly, but it feels complete and satisfying, and there's a Speed Mode so you can delve into alternate choices and story paths on subsequent runs while skipping over things you've read before. Which I did, several times, because you need to have played a thing for 2 hours in order to leave a review. And also because it took me a few tries to figure out how to make the funbuns happen. Anyway I liked it enough that I'm going to gift it to friends and get the designers other games, so.
An incredible investigation of what it means to discover, learn, and know.
