Reviews
Some of the reviews saying some of the symbols don't EXACTLY match up are right, but honestly it didn't detract me from having a lot of fun wit the game. The underlying story is what kept me going and figuring stuff out on the Mural stone REALLY pulled me in. It's decoding a language but moreso with the intent of reading a story.
I recommend this game
Beat the game to 100% [spoiler]I am selling their treasure to the British museum of history the Nari can't stop me they aren't real[/spoiler]

Si vous avez aimé Chants of Sennaar mais trouvé qu'on vous mâchait un peu le travail. Si vous avez maintes fois rêvé d'être né au dix-neuvième et d'avoir percé le mystère de langues anciennes. Si vous aimez prendre un papier et un crayon et vous creuser les méninges pendant des heures devant le même écran... Alors jouez à Epigraph. Le jeu vous donne quelques indices pour démarrer, et cela m'a suffi pour assez rapidement comprendre les principes de la grammaire Nari. Mais il y a ensuite un long travail pour croiser toutes les informations et identifier lentement de nouveaux mots jusqu'à avoir une compréhension suffisante pour résoudre quatre énigmes. Cela m'aura pris 7 heures.
This was a master class in decipherment puzzles.
Loved this!! If you are into linguistics / conlanging / logic puzzles then this game will be really intuitive and fun, and probably a pretty quick playthrough. If you are not into those things, then I can imagine this being the most frustrating experience ever. I didn't decipher every single word, and I'm not sure what the [spoiler]superscript squares and double squares[/spoiler] mean. Could probably get the remainder with enough time but I'm not sure the time investment is worth the reward. Features I'd like to see are: 1. [spoiler]A way of tagging the superscript symbols so that you can gloss noun declensions / verb conjugations, even if the result is not quite grammatical.[/spoiler] 2. [spoiler]Some sort of notepad on each passage so I can take notes, write down what I think the passage means in plain English, etc.[/spoiler] I'd LOVE a more extensive game with a format just like this where you're really uncovering an entire language and culture in more depth. This one is short enough to get away with it, but a longer game would probably need phases with some confirmation so you don't play for tens of hours over to discover you've gone down a huge rabbit hole.
Excellent concept mais qui mériterait un petit bouton indice.
Love how there are no hints, no prompts,no levels to pass no nothing, although difficult and fustrating at times, I didn't feel nannied into finding the correct answer like a lot of other games.
Unique and fun game. It walks the fine line of beeing challenging enough without beeing impossible to solve. Most impressively, it manages to do so with only little initial information. Absoultely worth its small price. Highly recommended.
特别纯粹的文字破译,难度很大。 推荐确实推荐,但是内容有点少,玩法有点新意,给8/10。 信封里的字是真的看不懂。
