Although initially off putting, the art style quickly won me over and immediately felt just right for the story it was telling.

Mechanically, I don’t think I’ve played anything like this; perhaps Outer Wilds - which I loved - comes the closest but it’s a whole different tangent of this (and Obra Dinn is already on my queue, btw!). I was totally engrossed by it from the start.

The story was intriguing enough that I was thinking about it and coming up with theories even between play sessions across days.

This was a blast to play with my wife, who loves mysteries in general - which I guess made the whole experience just take around 4 days, and without need for hints whatsoever.

Although I was able to predict some of the twists in the story, in the end it was still a super rewarding experience.

If this team releases new mysteries with the same mechanics, I’ll happily support their efforts.
