Love the concept and retro-style presentation. The growing narrative and mystery being built just through the back and forth emails was really intriguing and oddly, exciting. I see ALOT of potential in making a series of games with this kind of style and gameplay. With just the right amount of polish and depth, I can see this becoming something genuinely fantastic. Excited to see more from this team!
Короткая, но интересная игра. Головоломки не особо сложные, как и сюжет, но проходила с большим удовольствием
really loved the format of this game, the mapping and the concept is genuinely very fun. maybe it's because i recently read Olga Tokarczuk's "The Empusium" (quite similar in narrative direction) but the story felt like it could've gone a bit further. nevertheless: loved the look of it, a fun short game, and i look forward to other games by the developer!
Wikipedia bender Town of Salem Sherlock conspiracy in a short and sweet 2-3 hour adventure. Easy to see and left wanting this concept turned into a 10-15 hour detective-stringboard puzzler -- I will keep an eye out for other things like it now.
Fun, short game! I like the information-web style of information and detective work, it was a good way to keep things organized. I would love another game just like this one that was a little more expansive and twisty.
Decent puzzle game, but the clues could've been more consistent, IMO. Some were quite on the nose, while others were too obscure for my taste. Rating: ★★★☆☆
took me longer than what id like to admit; but for a retrospective, its honestly better more as a story than a game tbh and i think a lot of people have the same sentiment as me gameplay-wise it was just a little. um. frustrating from time to time, as one might say, trying to connect the dots and allat, but it surely wasnt something that was completely annoying otherwise, i kinda liked it, story was good too but it definitely has some kinks that need to be worked out like more mechanics overall (the worldbuilding is good but i think that couldve been done more better through fictional website links instead of a linear pathway)
good gameplay. but the story is very basic and I figured out every twist like 30 minutes into the game. making the rest of the game me just trying to find what specific key word needed to go where.
A bit short, but very enjoyable mistery game.
My only wish is the game was longer and a bit more obtuse with some hints haha! I loved the game and the format. Managing a fake desktop to solve a mystery is one of my favorite types of game. I do wish I was able to spend more time with the game, as I loved the atmosphere and style. The story is interesting too, and I think it fits well. I do wish clues were more difficult to obtain or required more thought and searching, and I wish there were both more articles and more hidden articles. Maybe I've just spent enough time in games like these to pick up on what clues look like and this game takes longer for other players. It's a fun game, though, and devs I would encourage you to make more like it, or add on some more to this one specifically!
