it's good. best not to spoil it for those who don't want to be, so it'll be in spoilers. this is a meta game. you should learn how to dig thru your files. and you can replay the game, if you really, really want to. some of the puzzles are rather difficult. but the hint system did allow me to get through the game; there is one puzzle (the one with the chest) that stumped me for a bit, but eventually i did figure it out.

I love how this game is made and would love to see more games like this. I haven't played a game like this, a fun twist! FOR PEOPLE STRUGGELING WITH THE VASE My first mistake was that my note was with black background and white text, which is the opposite. ANYWAY, you can see in the left top corner if you make the right symbol with the right color. This took me FOREVER since I also had opposite color on the text and didn't realise until it had been some hours.
