Reviews
Decent puzzle game for the most part. Art style and story were okay as well, even though I did see the plot twist coming from a mile away. I did have issues with some of the puzzles, though. Some of them I did not like personally (the ones where moving one part also moves other parts; I'm terminally bad at those), and a few others had rather annoying design choices (like adding a timer to the box with the ink brush, or fading templates when drawing the Chinese characters). But thankfully the game did provide simplified versions of those. And the music needs volume control rather than an on/off switch. I would've preferred to keep it on as it adds to the atmosphere nicely, but it was so loud that I would've had to turn down my speakers, so I ended up turning it off instead. Rating: ★★★☆☆
