Reviews

    Too much of the game is blocked behind a paywall. Edit: being made by a solo developer is impressive as the visuals are really nice and the gameplay is intuitive. This needs to be titled Demo or something that makes the player aware that they will only be able to play the first 10 minutes for free.

    A playable demo with voice acting that makes it feel like it is for the under 10 years old. The extream hand holding makes all the challenges / puzzles in this game redundant and could easily be replaced with a "continue" button to move the narrative (what there is of it) along.

    Despite not being listed as such, this is a demo for a paid game. You can play for roughly 20-30 minutes of gameplay before being cut off with a charge that's over $5. I'd rather buy a game upfront then be tricked into downloading something I later have to pay for. The game itself does seem interesting and I enjoyed the puzzles but not enough to pay for it, particularly because each chapter seems to only be 20 minutes or so, the gametime for the price ratio is way off.

    Quite an interesting spin on the usual snapbreak published point and click. Mainly taking a pixelart point and click approach while feeling simiar puzzle wise to games like the doors series and especially the far away games. Aswell as the inclusion of a story that's more integral to the plot of the game whilst not taking too much of a deviation in terms of setting. Definitely a good mobile puzzle game all round.

    Now this is a game I'd actually spend money on to buy the full version. Absolutely love the voice acting and the soundscape. The voice acting for the MC is a little underwhelming, but not too much. Love the artwork and the animations. I also love the story aspect! I wish there were more story based games in the game app industry.

    Bought the full game after playing act 1. Very charming artstyle and voice acting. The world building is really good for this 'little' game! Puzzles are not too hard, my playtime was around 4h. I wish there was a hint system because there was one puzzle I got stuck with a long time towards the end of act 4. The extras are lovely, hope to see more games from this dev.

    I really enjoyed this experience. It brought me back to the days of The Dig sitting on my dad's lap while we tried to figure which solution went to which puzzle. There's no pixel hunting, and the game makes it easy to find what you need if you need it. I had to write down solutions to remember at later parts of the game. The one issue I have is the in game journal. There are too many solutions that are too obvious, it felt a little lazy to just hand over the solutions in a tidy book.

    Super good game. Lots of play time and great puzzles. There were a few puzzles that were difficult to understand where to go next toward the end. Thats the only thing I didn't like. Also....what was the point of the speck of dust? I picked it up and I never found where to use it. Will there be a continuation of this game? Voice acting is excellent and I love the artwork. Wish there were more things to do and find in the dorm area. Other than that, thanks!

    Great art style, puzzles may require going back to previous locations to try something new. Just wish there was a fast travel back from the map. The free playable section felt too small, and if the rest of the game is short I think paying for the full game might be a bit of a waste. If this was ever discounted I would snap it up though.

    If you are able to support individual game creators, I highly recommend this game. The story is intriguing and although I had to look at a walkthrough for a few parts, the puzzles are fun to solve but not impossible at the same time. Games like these are why I still have hope in the creative gaming space when bigger entities and franchises underproduce and overpromise. Games like this, coromon, and btd6 (not as small but still) are well worth the small paywall. A game theory on this would be 🔥

    *Full game* Got hooked by the art and the univers design. Story pretty nice, got surprised a few time by the turns it takes. I found the puzzle and clues well balanced. Basic logic puzzles but efficient, never got bored to solve. Liked the book to consult. Foot steps a bit boring after some time, more atmospheric background sounds or music sometimes. The voice is sometimes a bit tactless? Need different answers types? Overall, loved it, kind of game I would love to create. Good job to the team!
