The game is just a series of timing/memory puzzles. Nothing more. It gets to the point of frustration replacing enjoyment. The puzzles are not difficult in a mindbending way but rather a hair pulling way in that they require exteme quickness with your mouse and memorizing the layout while being timed on a very short clock. They are all doable but it is not what I would call a thinking mans puzzle type of game. As a diehard lover of puzzle/adventure games I really did not like this game. It may appeal to others but for me it didn't hack it. Blind faith can be costly at times. luckily for me it was only 4 bucks.

Totally recommend this game. Hands down the best Indie-Horror I have played. Love how it starts out so innocent but messes with your mind the next moment. The only downside is how quick the dark bubbles reappear. I would like them to remain popped a little longer.
