Nice tale, didn't age that well.
Got it ages ago on some sale and it waited patiently for its turn. What can I say? The game didn't age very well. The graphics look really dated and - most importantly - back in its days the game could have been forgiven for the way you control your character. Nowadays - it's a big no no. I assume they went cheap and didn't implement routing in the environment. That's one big drawback of this game. The other one is that it's annoyingly linear. It consists of several chapters that need to be completed in almost strict order to advance. And there's a bit of pixel hunting. And some minigames are frustrating. On the upside - the story is interesting and even though it's confusing for the most of the game it explains itself in the end. Good thing about the game is that you can't die so you can just happily explore your possibilities untill you find a solution. Remake with decent gfx and more up to date controls could be an interesting idea.

I almost went insane myself...
...because of the horrendous movement and control. Also, I realised adventure puzzle games are not at all for me. And I got the game for free. That said, I don't want to duck a bunch of points only on personal preference, I'll give it three stars because it is a well loved game which indicates to me that the aficionados consider it worthy and because it seems lovingly made. But, I found puzzles to be very tedious with a few exceptions, those being the most alien puzzles, where you just have to be creative istead of spending ages to figure out which exact pixel to click. The game aesthetic I found very lovely. Sound and voice acting are quite good, haven't got any beef with that but the dialogue is a bit obtuse at points with some dialogue branches not taking into account things previously said and similar. The story was quite impressive and competently told. The absolute biggest gripe that I have with this game is the atrocious movement, that really drops it in my eyes in a big way because of all the exploration you have to do, even when you know what you are trying to accomplish, let alone when you are stumbling around. That made me give up on the puzzles after a point and I just kept checking the solutions to save myself the tedium of walking to and fro in search for clues. I can definitely recommend if you are a fan of puzzle adventure games, but if you, like me, think this is going to be like the other beloved 2D isometric games - alas, it's not. In that case maybe skip this one.
