Disliked: Game to dark, had to turn up the monitor brightness which gives a bluish hue. This is not a horror game so don't see the need for the darkness. Also, very short, a good escape room expert could crack this in less than an hour, I'm more of a dabbler than serious gamer but I still cracked it in under 2 hours. Liked: Good puzzles, good hint system and the controls and inventory management were good. Is it worth the price? Just about. If this concept could be extended into a much more expansive and longer game it would be terrific.

well quit after the first room past the tutorial. seriously, if you play word games and drop red herrings ("my body is below that chest, help me find peace! No actually all you have to do is count how many times I say left and right, the body and chest don't mean anything") I don't want to play your game

The "clues" or puzzles seem SO FAR FETCHED that, in my opinion, the puzzle game just isn't enjoyable to play. In fact, it is down right miserable to the point of just clicking on the hints became boring. But for 99 cents.... Try the Demo, if you can run it, and give it a try first. I haven't even played it two hours yet so I could 'probably' get my money back BUT: I just deleted the game from my machine and called it a day. The game was so miserable that I didn't even want to waste MORE time asking for a refund.

Great fun but short. Considering the cost, great value! The puzzles were fun and not too difficult for two of us.

Very good value for money - very good graphics - nice gameplay although hard to do it within the 1 hour time period. My only gripe with this game is the movement speed is far too slow and a game like this really should have a run option (especially when doing the buttons). Would be helpful to use the right mouse button to exit the inventory screen as well - interface gets in the way a little but overall this is a good game and worthy of a play. Please try it and support this great developer.

ooh I liked this! I was so enthralled, I forgot to take a screenshot lol. I liked the puzzles and the story. It looked great too! I didn't really notice the BGM which isn't a terrible thing. That's how BGM should be- non intrusive IMO. The voice acting was on point! My only problem is- in a timed game, MC should be able to run lol. Great game!! Can't wait to see what comes next!!

As the other review says, a bit unnecessarily dark, but fun! Felt like a real escape room.

Very well made and enjoyable! All around well worth a dollar. Only thing missing is brightness options, I had to turn off lights in order to see some of the puzzles.

The game is too short for the price, and some of the puzzles are impossibly obscure.
