really really good puzzle game, some of the puzzles seemed undoable at first until I looked at them from a different angle, overall sincerely great stuff 9/10, will definitely 100% at some point (I'll leave a more complete review after finishing the game probably, but I got stuck on the chess puzzle and it seems well and truly impossible to progress)

太牛了。。。。。。 虽然二者氛围完全不同,但让我重新体验到了当初玩《there is no game》的惊艳。 美术,剧情,谜题玩法三者相辅相成结合得天衣无缝,音乐也是超绝动听,里面那个女声吟唱太有感觉了。 好久没有拿着纸笔酣畅淋漓地解谜了,谜题思维跳跃但是巧妙无比,整个解谜过程脑子都在柳暗花明又一村,一村一村又一村的波浪起伏般的惊喜愉悦里。每一关都有不同的风味,元素太丰富了,偶尔卡关去看攻略,得到答案后也只有对制作组想象力和设计能力的佩服和惊叹! 剧情也很扣人心弦,文案文笔也很好很有沉浸感,但真的好虐TAT 真的好喜欢这种创造力爆棚的游戏啊!多来点吧! 非常棒非常优秀的作品!喜欢喜欢喜欢!! 爱解谜,爱电波系的买吧!真的物超所值! 制作组加油!期待更多更好的作品!!
The creepy atmosphere was bad enough, but then the assistant made a cheap jumpscare joke... I was on the fence about reviewing, since so much of this is personal taste, but that really felt like a slight.
This game is good. It runs great, looks great, and sounds great. It’s immersive, and you don’t notice the hours passing while you play. There are many different puzzles, and it’s fun to explore while using your PC knowledge to help solve them. There’s no shame in looking for hints from the community if you get stuck, as some of the puzzles can be quite challenging. It reminds me a bit of Hypnospace Outlaw, but with more focus on mystery, and it’s easier to get into. I often felt lost in Hypnospace, but this game feels more contained and approachable. I will continue this review once I have completed the game.
畫面、氣氛感做的很棒,有回到以前電腦時的感覺 一開始的謎題 都還蠻好解的 可是到 換另外一個地方的解謎,那邊說真的,緹是真的太少了 我覺得到後面,幾乎謎題是真的很需要有再更多的可尋的細微線索 不然會直接卡死,甚至有一個謎題非常莫名其妙 就是要你硬A才能找到 (煤炭) 我認為到後面不像解謎 倒是像通靈
It's a really good game but it needs a few more quality of life things like a higher walkspeed and a few more hints. Other than that it's really fun and provides plenty of content
i loved this game. the puzzles were just the right mix of difficult and easy. its emotional, its fun and it has amazing soundtrack. 10/10
damn good
Absolutely fantastic, demo was amazing and so I had to buy the game, and it has been just perfect.
