### 2/5 — progression bug

*2026-09-02*

i have exhausted all dialogues with each character and am completely stuck. my goals also rarely update. if i have spoken to larry and chosen each dialogue option my goal is still, speak to larry

### 5/5 — Amazing horror point and click

*2026-09-02*

Played this for the first time last year, shot up to one pf my favorite games ever. If you are a fan of the John Dies at the End books, you will love this game. Puzzles aren’t overly challenging, but they do make you put in effort to solve them, story is full of fascinating twists. Can’t wait for the sequel!

### 1/5 — I could not hear anything

*2026-09-01*

Clearly there was something wrong for me with this game as I could not hear any sound despite having settings set appropriately, I also found very early in the game that I was just going through doors and ending up back where I started, which I quickly ran out of patience with. Shame as I was looking forward to trying it but without sound it just wouldn’t be a good experience. And the doors thing just finished me off! I am sure it is actually a lot better than this it’s just I had an unfortunate experience.

**Developer response:** Thanks for playing the game! Please make sure you don't have your phone on silent mode, which will prevent the audio from playing. The doors in the beginning are a puzzle; take a closer look, you can do it! :) If you're still having troubles, feel free to reach out to mike@portablemoose.com and we'd be happy to help

### 5/5 — Beautiful.

*2026-08-30*

Great story, pacing and designs. Every character is lovable, the visuals are disturbing in such a great way, I would say this game definitely lived up to its hype. So excited for sallyface2, hope to see more of this game soon. All love goes to the creator.

### 5/5 — Spanish

*2026-08-30*

I love this game, but I do wish it were available in Spanish, since I don't know much English and find it a bit difficult.

### 5/5 — Проблема с синхронизацией достижений

*2026-08-28*

Здравствуй Стив,очень рад что столь легендарная игра теперь всегда в кармане,но заметил проблему что в game center перестали засчитываться достижения,в самой игре с этим проблем нет и они есть во вкладке достижений но почему то ее синхронищируются

### 5/5 — Strange bug with achievements

*2026-08-27*

I completed the first episode 100% and noticed that all achievements—except for "Sleep" (spiking the tea with a sleeping pill)—showed up in Google Games. The others registered within the game itself but didn't appear in the Google Games statistics or on my linked account. Please fix this if it's a bug ❤️

### 5/5 — I love this game

*2026-08-27*

This game is generally so entertaining and it's so worth the money
