A true masterpiece

I've played dozens of point and click games over many years and I'm usually very specific in what appeals to me. This follows that format to a degree (picking up objects and interacting) but is focused mostly on puzzle solving.

But what this game does, is create a fascinating dystopian world with bizarre interactions and visuals which I found absolutely mesmerising. There are no games which are styled like this so it's great to play.

I must admit I had to cheat on a couple of puzzles as I couldn't work them out but I wish I hadn't now! Puzzles are unique, fun, strange and well thought out.

I had to scour forums and use ChatGPT to look for games I hadn't played and this one stood out to take a chance on ... very pleased I did. Other reviews say this is maybe too short, I can understand that based on games that might take days to complete. But I don't think it's a concern having finished the game and I have no complaints about it.

I also found only 5/8 cats. But when I revisit the game in a year or so I'll look for them all.

Please make another game like this! And thank you.
