Dec. 2025
GAME: Solid and funny adventure title. Memorable characters, super cool artstyle, and nice atmospheric soundtrack. Story itself was only so-so for me personally (a little generic and predictable), but I did enjoy the different locations you go to and interactions. Puzzles were pretty fun to figure out, though I did have to consult a walkthrough a couple times. **ISSUES**: Unfortunately I also did encounter several bugs while playing (cursor issues, progression/cutscene not triggering) and the only solution I found was to switch to a different save file. Therefore I HIGHLY recommend creating many different saves in your playthrough. And if you play on an ultra-wide, you WILL need to switch the resolution to a regular 16:9 ratio (important aspects will get cut off in ultrawide). There are no resolution settings in-game, instead hold "alt" key while launching the game from steam, and that will bring up a popup to let you change the resolution.

I found Chapter 1 a bit slow and lots of going back and forth between places but after that the story and game really took off and became very engaging and enjoyable! I also thought the artwork was gorgeous!

i loved it! the art style is great, cartoony but still with atmosphere. the humour is great, i laughed out loud several times and i like the goofy references. the game doesn't take itself too seriously, but still manages to have some edge to the story, and good tension. the puzzles were a bit difficult but still lots of fun, and a lot of variety to the different puzzles. gosh, i love a point and click! 8/10, would play again!
