### 5/5 — 面白くてボリューム👌

*2025-10-16, version 1.2*

畳を作る⁉︎
ふるのヘルメットに袴姿で、初めはふざけた内容の作品かと思って手を出さずにいました。
私が幼少期に庭先で畳屋さんがビシバシと作業しているのを見ているのが好きでした。
少しだけのつもりがアイテムを入手する為の謎解きの手の込みようが面白く、レッドさんを見ながらの畳作りにはまりました。
でもレッドさんの大きく開いた袖口が何か持っているように見えてしまって惑わされた事もありました。
そして後半の竹の細かさには参りましたが大変面白くクリアしました。
懐かしさから畳屋さんの脱出ゲームをインストールして良かったと思っています。
次回作品も期待しています。
有り難うございました。

### 1/5 — 進みません！

*2024-09-27, version 1.2*

左右色が分かれ5つの記号を入れる所で間違ってるのか？と思い答えを観ても合ってるが進まない、棚の謎解き先に出来てしまった為の不具合なのか(軍手等が入っているやつ)やり直しは面倒なので終了。

### 5/5 — 畳

*2024-06-29, version 1.2*

謎解き自体はとてもオーソドックスですが畳を作るのがなんか楽しくて良いですね！
既に他の方が書かれていますが操作性がちょっと良くないのが気になりました
タップ判定が若干厳しめで、畳の画面では正面からしか元に戻れないので、ブラックさんの作業を確認してから戻るのがちょっと大変です。ゲーム自体は面白いのでもったいなく感じてしまいました。

### 5/5 — だんだんと

*2024-06-16, version 1.1*

最初は、畳を作る？？？と思ってましたが次々と作業していくうちに楽しくなってきました。脱出したあとはけっこう達成感があってよかったです。

### 4/5 — コンセプトは良い

*2024-06-15, version 1.1*

が色々と面倒で煩わしい。特に移動、畳周りは更に酷い、何処からでも戻れるようにした方が良いと思う。
難易度は若干高めに感じた。最初、何をしていいかよく分からなかった。同じ色の物が沢山あるのも煩わしい。特にトラックの荷台は、まさかコレじゃないなと思って入力したのが正解だった。
あれだと意図が伝わらないと思う。
他にもただ面倒な仕掛けが沢山だが、ノーヒントで解ける難易度で、理不尽はさほど感じず楽しめた

### 4/5 — メモ推奨

*2024-06-15, version 1.1*

畳を作りつつ脱出を目指す、ちょっとユニークなゲームです。
思ったよりボリューム多めでした。
残念なのは、視点移動が分かりにくく面倒な事。特に畳の場面では周りをぐるっと一周するように8箇所移動するのですが、畳から離れられる場所が1箇所しか無いため、離れためには何度もタップしないといけなくてかなりしんどかったです。しかも畳が自分のとブラックさんの2枚ある事に気づかず（画面上部にちゃんと書いてあるので、これは完全に自分が悪いのですが）あちこちぐるぐるしてしまいました。フォークリフト等への移動もタップポイントが微妙。
それとスクショ機能もメモ機能も無いのに、1箇所に入力するために必要なものが多すぎます。紙にメモするか、何度も移動して入力しないといけない。非常に面倒でした。
難易度的には中くらいかと思いますが、以上のような手間がかかるので時間がかかりました。
ただ、謎解きそのものには理不尽なものは無く脱出慣れしてる人ならさほど難しくは無いと思います。

### 5/5 — 他には無い斬新な謎がテンコ盛り

*2024-06-11, version 1.1*

畳職人の技を真似ながら、畳を作るという経験ができて面白いです！　他には無い斬新な謎もテンコ盛りで、解きごたえのある秀作です。
