And clean up the couch when you're done napping!"[/I]

I thought I would play a nice cozy, narrative waliking sim. But No! The atmosphare got a very eary after a bit and I waited on a jumpscare. But nothing happend. The End was so not expected! I really liked it.
What to say about Answer Knot? at first i was like "Ehm.. what i'm supposed to do?" and after a bit of time, i finally found what i'm supposed to do, the story are really good, and the plot twist! omg i don't see it coming 10/10
Игра 'Answer Knot' – это увлекательная головоломка, которая заставляет мозг работать на полную. Простая концепция – развязывание узлов из слов, путем правильного ответа на вопросы – скрывает за собой довольно сложный и затягивающий геймплей. С каждым уровнем сложность растет, вопросы становятся заковыристее, а узлы – запутаннее. Мне особенно понравилось, как игра объединяет образовательный аспект с развлекательным. Она заставляет вспоминать факты из разных областей знаний, от истории и географии до поп-культуры и науки. Если не знаешь ответа, всегда можно воспользоваться подсказкой, но это, конечно, влияет на итоговый результат. Графика минималистичная, но приятная глазу. Интерфейс интуитивно понятен, и разобраться в нем не составляет труда. Игра отлично подходит для коротких перерывов или более длительных сессий, когда хочется размять мозги. Единственный небольшой минус – хотелось бы больше разнообразия в типах вопросов. Однако, в целом, 'Answer Knot' - это отличный выбор для любителей головоломок, которые ценят не только развлечение, но и возможность узнать что-то новое. Рекомендую всем, кто ищет интересную и интеллектуальную игру.

Very short and free; hard to be too critical... But the puzzles aren't very intuitive- getting a 4 digit code is way more of a process than it needs to be... A lot of red herrings that aren't intentional, just demonstrate a lack of staging/planning. The twist is fine but doesn't really make a whole lot of sense in the broader context of the game. Great voice acting, though.
Love the environment, and the ending was great!
It's free, it's short. For me it *consistently* crashes shortly after I pick up the motorcycle magazine so I literally can't complete this 15-minute game!
loved this game it was super fun i enjoyed watching the story unfold and the twist at the end i played it twice all the way through to collect all the achievements. this type of game wont be for everyone but i enjoyed it you might too.
Great twist, very atmospheric, got more and more ominous as it went. Loved it.
Great atmosphere and story-telling short horror game. i recommend this game to all horror fanatics. not to mention it's free!
