Love this game!
I’ve always loved puzzles even as a kid! I love the challenges and how it gets me to think outside of the box. With that said, this is by far one of my favorite puzzle games! This is different from most if not all other puzzle games because it submerges you into a story. As you read you (and it’s best to play with headphones) you can hear the background noises as if you are there and you’re trying to escape! I’ve played this game more than once and I’ve been waiting for this team to come out with another game similar! Wishful thinking, but I have high hopes 😅Show lessl8desired
Nothing else like it
I normally don’t write reviews but I felt compelled to write one for this game because it was a truly amazing experience. The stylization of the text was incredibly unique, and the puzzles themselves had a great difficulty that was never too easy or too hard. The narrative itself was fascinating to follow as well and it kept me hooked from start to finish.
If you’re not sure whether you should get this game, I can ASSURE you that it’s worth it. You won’t find an experience like this anywhere else.Show lessGary Bernhardsson
Mind bending and brilliant
I just finished the game, and had to come give a review. This is the most unique game I have played in years, maybe ever. The gameplay and interface are unique, the storyline is fabulous, and I had a blast playing. The ending is brilliant and made me want to immediately replay the entire game with this new insight—so much I ignored the first time became chillingly clear the second time around!!
Do not hesitate, get this game now and prepare for a wild ride!!Show lessOriginal Quartermoon
Funny, stylish, brilliant. And the music!
Yes, it is text based and subtle—and also thoroughly compelling. I have a suspicion of “clever” games, but this one is really very smart! And funny, one of the highest forms of smarts. The layout references mid-century graphic art: the clean, no nonsense style of spy comics and cool record covers. The music, and audio in general, holds clues as well as being very good. This is perhaps the first and only grown-up game I’ve ever played. It makes you think and it’s deeply satisfying when you get the puzzles figured out. What a gas! as the hep-cats used to say.

Buy it.
I’ve played a lot of puzzle games, and I can without a doubt say that this is my favorite. It’s unconventional, non-linear, and unlike anything you’ve played before or will play again. The puzzles are challenging enough to keep you engaged and give you that burst of excitement when you figure it out, but not frustrating. The atmosphere is unsettling and visceral, despite being communicated only through sound, text, and small images. It’s impossible to describe how playing the game feels until you’ve done it, so I won’t even try. Just buy it. You won’t regret it.Show lessTygerlily44
Simply Brilliant
First of all I am trying to describe an app that is beyond words. This is an outstanding game/book/what-the-heck-am-I-supposed-to-do? but that is the magical part of it all. Most of the IOS games show you what to do and how to do it and Blah Blah Blah...it’s like they think we are stupid or something (cough cough). Anyway, from the begining you don't know what is going on, then the pieces start to fit together and you’re like, "Yes, I get it!!" You will go through an amazing story and equaling amzaing "Puzzles". But the ending...Oh, the ending is Simply Brilliant.
This game will change the way you look at life, love, and the way your younger sister eats her cereal. Yes, this game has little to no replay value but you don't need it; it will completely satisfy you. All this to say... the game is worth it, buy it, injoy it, and never let you youger sister eat cereal again.Show lessJ.M.Payne
Good experience, weak at the end
I gave it 4 stars so I did quite like it despite what I am going to write.
First, gorgeously done with regard to the linking of narrative and movement. Best part of the game. But I use the word “game” guardedly (which I suspect the authors might agree with). If you are looking for The Room level puzzles, this is not the place. Some clever mechanics but not overly challenging.
Second, the audio is wonderfully done and adds a wonderful richness to the experience.
Lastly, the ending is weak. I am not sure if there is more than 1 ending so I was going to go through it again. But the one I got was less than satisfying. There are plenty of common tropes that could have worked better.
So in summary, a as game it is so-so, as an experience it is excellent.Show lessgumbright
Completely Worth It
I was randomly scrolling through the App Store the other day and came across this game. I was hesitant about the cost but it is absolutely fantastic. If you like escape room-type puzzles and intuitive game design, you will enjoy this game. I’m sad that more people don’t know about this game, but I am absolutely going to recommend it to everyone I know. I literally made my friend play it and she loved it and thanked me.Show lessPuppylover111
The Best Puzzle Game
This is the only puzzle game I've played on iPad that is worth the price. It's both a legitimate challenge, where you have to really pay attention to the subtle clues, and a fun story to try to walk your way through. It is truly the most inventive puzzle game I’ve come across, including Monument Valley. I really wish it was ten times longer though. SEQUEL PLEASE!Show lessSteveGPrime
Not really much of a game
It’s certainly stylish and well produced, but it’s not really much of a game in the end. There are only five actual puzzles to solve (there is no puzzle in the sixth chapter), and those range from “extremely simple” to “somewhat clever but annoying to navigate”. That’s the key here: the navigation consists of a huge amount of scrolling through text in all four directions, backwards and upside down, laid out by a design school dropout. An intelligent person can easily solve the five puzzles in less than hour, but that’s drawn out to two or even three hours by all of the scrolling and backtracking. It’s better to think of this “game” as a piece of interactive fiction or modern art — essentially “The Prisoner” meets “Alice in Wonderland” — and then let yourself experience it as such.Show lessSilverhammer
