I do like this alot. I like the lore and the tone and the themes. Good story telling. Interesting characters. The only qualm is that you are forced to go to the clock tower when there are still other things to do. I wanted to exhaust all of searching before facing the end boss. Then there are very few options to choose when facing the boss. I know it can be replayed to see what was missed, but it feels rushed when you have no choice but to end the game when there are places you have not gone yet

So far so fantastic. One of the best text based horror games out there, with high quality writing, authentic worldbuilding, suspense and an excellent grasp of the eldritch cosmic horror lore that are the hallmarks of this developer. The ambient music is a lovely bonus. The build up is stellar, sanity system works well & compounds the overall dread. Achievements are a great addition. Tad short but $1.49 AUD is more than a fair price, tbh I'd have happily paid a bit extra to support this dev/team.
