A very tentative thumbs up, not because I liked this game very much or would particularly go out of my way to recommend it, but because I think it showed the bones of good development from the creators. This being said, if this studio were to work on another game in the future with more time, budget, etc., I think they could produce something good. However, when it came to this game, the brevity is a blessing. The puzzles don't require much puzzling, however, and it's okay-ish as a stealth game. The graphics were nice - I enjoyed the artstyle and animations. The journals were well written, but the voice acting for dialogue left much to be desired. I was fine playing through once, but after an hour or a bit less I just continued to get the achievements. Glad I got it on sale.

Buzz
KOTAKU - "This isn’t a hidden object mobile game. In fact, it’s a damned gorgeous-looking third-person adventure, that looks as though it were set in a 3D Proteus."
Prankster101 - "Cynthia certainly defies expectations of what a lone auteur is capable of, and is testament to what can be achieved by someone who doesn’t have outside funding."
