A girl in trouble.

Enjoyed it so much couldn’t put it down. Might go back in a couple days to play it again if that’s possible and see what I can do just for memory alone. Loved the game thanks. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-05-30, version 2.0.3* Great game. Overall, if you’re not good. Solving problems. You’re not gonna enjoy as much. But can still help you to learn how to solve problems therapy. Having fun. Please play, and if you can donate. ### 5/5 — I’m in love 😍 *2026-02-09, version 2.0.3* Amazing voice acting and fantastic puzzle design! Some of the replies are hilarious. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and didn’t have much trouble with the speech recognition system. ### 5/5 — Excellent voice controlled game *2026-01-27, version 2.0.3* This game was thoroughly enjoyable, from the start until the end, I for one cannot wait until part two ### 5/5 — It’s a great idea to be able to play using your voice as the controls for the game *2026-01-25, version 2.0.3* Sometimes, the game doesn’t understand what I say. I give it the five stars because I like telling it to read last command and hear what it thought I said. Some of the time it’s pretty funny. As well, I enjoy hearing the short responses that tell me my character doesn’t want to perform this silly action. The sound design, voice-acting and general idea of the game is great. I havn’t got too far so I am looking forward to finding out the rest of this intriguing story. Thank you. ### 3/5 — Stupid hedge maze *2026-01-01, version 2.0.3* I hate the hedge maze. I haven’t figured it out and the hint isn’t helping me. I have not figured out how to get this through the head mage I mean, hedge maze. ### 5/5 — Great game *2025-12-05, version 2.0.1* I’ve seen the developer response. I don’t know how to type in email. Do you guys have a phone number that I can text or call? ### 4/5 — Lots of Fun! *2025-12-05, version 2.0.1* Having so much fun!! But have a few bugs that I can’t get past. I have to give the maid flowers, I give them and get the confirmation prompt, and then the flowers are still in my inventory and the task is still on my to-do list and I’m kind of stuck. But it’s been super fun gameplay. It’s like an immersive choose-your-own adventure book from when I was a kid. Love it! ### 5/5 — Five stars *2025-12-01, version 2.0.0* This is one of the best audio games I have ever played. It really requires you to think. ### 5/5 — Great game *2025-11-23* So this is a great and fun game I need help. I am stuck on where I have opened the door I have completed I think all the tasks if anyone has any other tasks I have charged the Rollingstone. I have opened the basement door. How do I go through the vortex or what do I do next? The encyclopedia won’t help me I don’t know what to do. **Developer response:** Hi Great gamer! Glad you've enjoyed the game.
