Anticlimatic ending...
süper
I mean, it's a free game and I feel bad about posting a negative review for a free game. Having said that, the game is quite boring. It starts good, with a good enough suspense story (full of cliches mind you) but still interesting. But I struggled to finish the game, basically the pace of the game is slow, and I don't mean the puzzles, I didn't struggle with any puzzle cause I've played games like this before so I'm used to it. But the pacing of the game is bad imo. They should have sticked to a simpler murder mystery instead of going full sci-fi. Also, the protagonist, he has the charisma of a trash can, which doesn't help. This game would have been much more fun to play with a bit more humour in it. Like the Broken Sword games. It takes itself way too serious to the point is laughable but not in a good way. Having said that, it's impressive for a free game, they could have easily charged $5 for this. And I would give it a neutral score instead of a bad one if steam allowed for neutral scores.

I hate negatively reviewing a free game, but this just ain't it for me. The plot gets crazy, which is kind of fun, but the puzzles and overall exploration are just kind of lackluster. Not a terrible time, but not the best us of my time either.
Point and Click Games sind leider nicht meins. Das Spiel gibt aber von Anfang an das Gefühl von einer interessanten Story rüber. Für Leute die PAC Games mögen, ist das bestimmt ein gutes Spiel
Histoire et graphisme sympas !
Fantastic! 5/5 stars, could've easily been a Gabriel Knight game back in the day.
boring, slow, cannot skip the intro and it even pauses in the background btw. had to manually edit the AGS config to get a bearable screen size
Get it because its free. Recommend its because of the David Lynch Easter egg.
A simple P&C rpg with a good storyline/writing and puzzles that make sense.
