Probably best to not try and 100% this because the controls for the gamey parts are kind of janky and there are some tight time limits but definitely worth a play if you want a chill series of puzzles that you can choose to engage with or ignore. I got emotional during the back third.

很好玩
有点玩不下去了,不好玩 如果有机会也许会打完吧,然后看看要不要改评价
真的很差劲的手感,我还以为我在deck上玩所以手感差,跑到电脑上玩发现不能用鼠标,键盘手感更差。一个休闲解谜小游戏为什么要恶心玩家呢?差评奉上,谁买谁后悔
人生是一场场等待
I only played half of the game before dropping it which I feel is important to note, though the way the game is levels of the same type of gameplay I don't think my opinion would've changed by the end. The concept of this game is so good and the levels themselves clearly have a lot of creativity and thought put into them but the controls are clunky and it's pretty unforgiving with time limits (I thought going into honestly there'd be ample time as we are waiting) and the specifics of the goals of each level. I think this game would've benefitted from having more steam achievements also! Also you move around painfully slowly which when there is a time limit to each level is very frustrating. I'm really sad because I was SO looking forward to this game ):
I really liked the game, but there are some things that annoyed me so so much. Pros: The story is very nice, and the levels really are a connected story all together. The art is really good, and there are a lot of easter eggs and funny things. Cons: Usually, in a level based game like this, I tend to 100% the game or at lease do most of the stuff (80%~90%). But in this game? There are so so so many almost impossible things, that in order to complete them you need to be pixel perfect and be on the right millisecond. In the menu, there are 2 main buttons: "start" and "levels". When you first open the game, you press the start button and it gives you a non-skippable tutorial, which that is fine. If you press levels, you can scroll through the levels menu. But if you press start even on the 1000th time you open the game, the non skippable intro is still non skippable which is very annoying, considering that I have to sit through an intro that I saw a million times. Overall, I do recommend the game because I enjoyed it a lot, but if you want a game to 100%? DO NOT try this one. I really do like the idea of the game, but there are some things that are really, really, really pissing me off.
