### 5/5 — A hidden gem

*2019-11-12, version 1.0*

Amazing game! So glad I ran across this and decided to take a chance. Beautiful artwork, puzzles and stories.

### 2/5 — Would be fantastic if...

*2017-07-02, version 1.0*

Would be a fantastic game if I could get it to work. Got to swinging picaxe part and it won't work. Tried several times over several days - nothing. So I can't even finish the game.

### 5/5 — Captivating

*2017-01-19, version 1.0*

Intriguing game with heartbreakingly poetic story.

### 4/5 — Much too short

*2017-01-11, version 1.0*

I had absolutely no problem with freezing. My complaint....hence only 4 stars.....is that this fantastic game is WAY too short.  I don't have a lot of time for game-playing so I was extremely surprised when the storyline ended abruptly after playing about 4 hours total.  Seems like the creators were in a hurry to get it running without realizing how quickly it would be completed by even an average player like me.  I do hope the makers will consider making another great one like this but will make sure it takes a while to finish it.

### 2/5 — Fun?

*2016-11-26, version 1.0*

This game looks like a lot of fun, and I'm sure it would be, but unfortunately it's designed to freeze part of the way through the first story.  I've restarted it, deleted and reinstalled it, but it's just too buggy and poorly made to function.  I think they should consider making this app free, so people aren't ripped off when it doesn't work.

### 4/5 — Pretty cool

*2016-11-25, version 1.0*

I swung my pick axe at he rocks for 10 minutes and nothing happened, so I had to skip that puzzle. Otherwise, it's a creative, unique and pretty interesting puzzle game.

### 3/5 — Good design but short

*2016-11-25, version 1.0*

I like the story and the concept, but this is perhaps the shortest game I have ever played. Hopefully it will be expanded with an update because it can be finished in less than an hour.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2016-11-22, version 1.0*

This game is so well done. Fantastic job!

### 5/5 — Challenging, elegant, moving

*2016-11-19, version 1.0*

A story-based puzzle, you interpret clues to make a picture from letters and numbers. The story is moving, the animation simple and elegant. Highly recommended

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2016-11-17, version 1.0*

This title should be experienced by anyone who enjoys art & design, puzzles, or great narratives.  Very gorgeous game that hooks you from start to finish.
