Great game but short

The game is very well done. It looks great and game flow is good but it’s considerably short. For a pay game instead of one with ads it almost feels like it’s not worth the money. I really did enjoy the game. It reminds me of some of my favorites in escape room genre games. I hope this is a start to some short of series or a bigger story plot. The storyline in the game was really interesting and am interested to see where it goes. I’m looking forward to more games like this. Keep up the great work!

Great game even tho short

This game has so much going for it. It’s a sophisticated 3D design with complex puzzles, beautiful artwork, and an interesting story. Everything works. I loved it. Like others I wish it were longer, and it would be lovely if there were more chapters coming (hint hint, dev 🙂). I did need some hints in places where I thought I was getting the solution wrong but it turned out that there were things I could do in the game but didn’t realize. It’s the kind of thing that if the game were longer, I’d learn how the dev’s mind worked and would learn to try more swiping, poking, trying when a puzzle wasn’t solving and I thought I had it right. But overall a really good game with creative, satisfying puzzles, even tho it’s short. Thank you, dev! More please!

Good job

Short but a decent collection of puzzles. I’d guess early teens could work their way through this and have fun with the puzzles and story. For more veteran adventurers this wasn’t too hard. Story-wise it’s rough and an overreach of scope for such a small game. Still, we should hope for sequels from this team. There a definite place for short form adventure gaming, I think.

Nicely done but short and anticlimactic

This game is really pretty and beautifully made, but the big reveal (spoiler) where the machine just spits out a list of the hints you used is really anticlimactic and makes the whole game feel abortive. I’d love it if your choices really impacted the game in some way! The art is so good, I’d honestly prefer to pay a few dollars more for a game that feels more complete than play an inexpensive game that feels truncated.

So well done! loved playing!

As an avid iOS escape room, click and point adventure game lover, I miss the days when more of these types of games were made. This game brings me back to those days! Very well done, just too short as I wanted to play more! Hoping this developer quickly releases more!

Love this Genre

Absolutely beautiful game with a captivating story line to go with the challenges of the puzzles. It did have a hint system, but I didn’t use it so I’m not sure what it entailed. Yes I wish it had been longer but I wouldn’t hesitate to pay for this quality of a game! More to come I hope!

Cleaver, well crafted.

Graphics and gameplay are well done. The choices one makes are thoughtful and self reflecting. The fact that the game is short for me isn’t a issue, just wanting more for her invention.

Nicely done

Relatively short game but well-made, with nice puzzles, graphics, and integrated story. Hope there will be more chapters in the future! Fans of The Room and other similar games will enjoy this.
