A decent compact point and click puzzler to dive into for a couple of hours. It has unique visuals, great atmospheric soundtrack, and an intriguing story that doesn't take the center stage (gameplay does), which is both a pro and a con of the game, depending what you want from it. Graphics are simplistic and puzzles are straight forward which makes it hard to recommend it for desk PC sessions. Playing if on mobile or handheld feels way more organic.
I would suggest getting this game only with discount. It's decent puzzle game. not too hard not too easy, I enjoyed it, but base game is roughly 2 hours long but... story is a bit wierd, more questions than answers. and like half of the "hidden" achievements are truly unnecessary. like replay the game, or spend 5 hours in one room.
i was scared and on edge thanks
Definitely a unique puzzle game! The gameplay is all incredibly solid but the real star of the show is the atmosphere! Everything just feels so off and unsettling and it can be genuinely creepy playing through some sections. I was very intrigued by the mystery and really enjoyed the environmental storytelling, especially in some of the later levels as you start piecing together what horrible event has occurred. It's still pretty open-ended but I appreciate a game that doesn't spell everything out for you and lets you reach your own conclusions. Good game!
Not bad for a puzzle game. I'm just to dumb to comprehend the hints
this game was such a surprise to me! despite the simple mechanisms and style it managed to tell a story that was very compelling and i found myself completely immersed in it, the way the story unfolds and you connect the dots is extremely satisfying! i played it in one sitting, making notes and taking screenshots to make a mind map, even though it was technically totally unnecessary, but i quite enjoyed doing that and it definitely added to my experience with this game. i would 100% recommend this game, especially for people who like puzzles and a good story!
