Pretty good

At first this looked like a low-quality game that was possibly going to be poorly made, illogical, etc. But it turned out not to be. The graphics aren’t as good as some other games, and there’s not a whole lot to interact with, but I actually ended up liking that. Some games have you click on a million things or have only a tiny area of the screen be the place you have to touch. I welcomed the simplicity of this game. The puzzles came at a regular pace and weren’t too difficult. The items acquired throughout the game were all eventually used and weren’t unnecessarily left in the inventory. I enjoyed the mystery as well, you had no idea what the story was behind the creepy mansion. Pretty good game, thanks.

Very enjoyable

Really enjoyed this game. Puzzles are solvable but not formulaic. I do a lot of puzzle games and you keep getting the same puzzles with different skins, whereas these were unique to the game and required a bit of a different way of thinking to solve. Thanks

I didn’t quite understand what to do

Absolutely Delightful

This game was entertaining, and just the right amount of challenging! The puzzles are varied, with a good balance of tickling your brain, but not frustrating. The graphics are good, with several well-crafted landscapes. Best of all, there aren’t any options to purchase, purchase, purchase your way through the game if you get stumped. Finished it within a day, but had a blast!

Don’t bother

Game gives no hints on how to solve puzzles. Thank goodness it allows you to skip or I never would have completed. Could not find a walkthrough. No easy way to navigate from place to place either.
