*2023-10-31, version 2.1.0*

I love it I’m watching all of you

### 5/5 — Fun dialogue

*2023-05-30*

I love these kinds of games and play them on a daily basis. This one is unique. The characters and character voices are great quality. The developers made the game serious with comic relief throughout. There was a particular part that I found amusing and just kept tapping to listen to it. I liked the way the gadgets are real high tech, but made with simple tools and materials (such as stone). There was also chemistry involved with the use of an apothecary kit. Follow the recipe to get the potion you need. Lovely music and artwork.

### 1/5 — 不喜欢花钱的游戏
