Hm, I don't have a problem with paying a few bucks for a mobile game (esp point and click adventure games), but the price of this one ($6) is a bit too steep based on the gameplay I experienced in the free demo. Maybe if I had a better sense of how long/involved the full version would be? I LOVED Dexter Stardust by this creator, but I didn't see enough potential in the demo for this game to justify the cost for me right now. However, I'd absolutely buy it if I wasn't so income-limited.

Super good game. Lots of play time and great puzzles. There were a few puzzles that were difficult to understand where to go next toward the end. Thats the only thing I didn't like. Also....what was the point of the speck of dust? I picked it up and I never found where to use it. Will there be a continuation of this game? Voice acting is excellent and I love the artwork. Wish there were more things to do and find in the dorm area. Other than that, thanks!

This game is very simplistic and the puzzles are very childish. Not to mention that you repeat the puzzles over and over. It's unfortunate that each puzzle is not a completely different one. Not to mention that this is expensive. You're much better off playing 3d escape rooms. The HKAppbond Mystic Manor Escape is free and 1,000 times better. But then how could you exist in America without being extremely greedy.

Fun point and click style adventure with fantastic pixel graphics and high production values, with lots of cinematics (that are not too long) and good voice acting. The puzzles are good, more in the vein of Myst-type puzzles. I occasionally got stumped and there is a decent amount of backtracking/re-exploring an area. But pretty typical for this genre. It works really well on mobile, it felt totally fine and I had no issues. Great game!

I really enjoyed this experience. It brought me back to the days of The Dig sitting on my dad's lap while we tried to figure which solution went to which puzzle. There's no pixel hunting, and the game makes it easy to find what you need if you need it. I had to write down solutions to remember at later parts of the game. The one issue I have is the in game journal. There are too many solutions that are too obvious, it felt a little lazy to just hand over the solutions in a tidy book.

Now this is a game I'd actually spend money on to buy the full version. Absolutely love the voice acting and the soundscape. The voice acting for the MC is a little underwhelming, but not too much. Love the artwork and the animations. I also love the story aspect! I wish there were more story based games in the game app industry.

If you are able to support individual game creators, I highly recommend this game. The story is intriguing and although I had to look at a walkthrough for a few parts, the puzzles are fun to solve but not impossible at the same time. Games like these are why I still have hope in the creative gaming space when bigger entities and franchises underproduce and overpromise. Games like this, coromon, and btd6 (not as small but still) are well worth the small paywall. A game theory on this would be 🔥

This was such a cool game. It combined action with puzzle solving and escape room-ish type feel. The levels were challenging and really made me rethink while doing certain tasks. It took me a while to beat and with at least a few weeks of play, I just finally finished it today. The colors, design and overall storyline were enjoyable. I would like to have more Acts or a second part of the game or something. I'm left hanging at the end! I need to know the rest of the backstory lol

Graphics are beautiful. The UI is good and easy to navigate with a little memory! I am stuck on the 1st Stage, at 3rd from the last module. I have added 4th gold ring. I'm going to step back a minute to reset my brain. If l can pass, I'll buy the game. Well done.

Wel, it may be not too hardcore for seasoned players, but just enough to enjoy and not to ragequit. Biggest thanks for ANOTHER WORLD vibes and references, I feel it in a lot of moments your pixel graphics is impeccable! Definitely worth buying! Just please, do something with that music at the start and in crucial moments, it's the only downside :)
