Encyclopedia

I can’t purchase the encyclopedia no matter how much I tap the button
And I got stuck at 34 elements and I can’t figure out what to do next

Not clear instructions at all

There are some places where the English is grammatically incorrect or does not make since. I don’t mind seeing as their only small errors and do not prevent me from playing. However, the hints that are located on signs around the game are not always easy to understand. I spent most of my time trying every combination until I got something useful. Now at 69/100 I’m stuck. With no clear object that needs to be created. And not willing to pay for a book that others have said is no help. Most annoyingly every few failed combinations I’m am reminded to pay for the book, as it will help, with no way to stop the pop up. I’d rather watch ads and receive an exact recipe than deal with this. As it stands I’m stuck in the looping forest with no way out but to try 4,761 different possible combinations.

Please progress

I’ve love the concept, games like this are hard to find. It has a vibe like Earthbound and Stardew but it’s as if the idea started out that way and was never finished. I’m currently stuck in the game, 60/100 elements, I don’t know what to do next but I haven’t given up

IT’S SUPER HARD!

This game is way to hard. You have to buy the encyclopedia as well. This game doesn’t really make sense either.

Difficult controls

I really want to like this game, but the controls make it difficult to navigate around and the text scroll rate is painfully slow. The idea is a great one and the game seems fun, but playing it is a chore since it takes so long for me just to walk around to discover what’s going on. Also, it’s zoomed in so close it’s hard for me to see what’s going on in the environment. Maybe making the controls like a d-pad where you press and hold the button or a point and click where you press a location on the screen and the character goes there. I will continue trying to play because it seems fun!

—- edited to add i bought the encyclopedia i hopes that it would help, but it was a WASTE of money. The encyclopedia should show me what i combined to make that item (ex: i made the bat but i have no idea how and i will never know) and should give better hints on how to make items. I also get frustrated that after I’m trying to go through and make more items, i get a message telling me to look at the book for help but the book has no information on how to make items or even hints on what it could be. I know what the unknown items are because of their description and placement in the book, but i can’t make them and it seems useless to have the encyclopedia.

No book

I bought a book and it won’t load

I don’t understand those clues

If I don’t need encyclopedia, and the dialogue is too slow, then how am I supposed to do that?

The movement controls

This game has a nice concept, but I’m just keep having difficulties moving around. I don’t know if this is a press and move game or a drag & move game. If it is a drag & move then I would recommend a joystick that the players can choose whether to have or not. Otherwise everything seems fine. (I’m only in the first land right now.)

Response from developer

Hello and thank you for your feedback. The game is a point and move (it's a new concept I found very nice to use comparatively to other I tried). So you should touch near the character and move your finger (keeping it on screen) to where you want to go. The character will follow your lead by taking the best path possible. I hope I made it clear, still I will have a second iteration on this method so it can be even better for the next version.

new one for English addition

Thanks for adding English. It’s definitely an interesting take with doing the genre in rpg/adventure style.

Response from developer

Thank you for this nice compliment :) Do not hesitate to talk about the game around you :) But you've already did the best thing with your ratting!

Add English Support!

Please add English! The only reason I bought this was because it said this game was in English
