Unsatisfying
It does look pretty, but the screenshots on the store page show a significant proportion of the entire content. As a puzzle-game, I only give it two stars. Most of the puzzles don't give a sense of accomplishment, and there's a lot of "can I interact with that? No." There's one specific blocker which caused me to spend a lot of time wandering the entire currently-explorable area searching either for a missed item or for an undiscovered puzzle, and the play-time felt padded by the character's slow walking speed. Not wanting to look for a walkthough yet, I looked at the reviews here and over on Steam, only to find that the review overwhelming voted most helpful over there gives two important pieces of information - one of them being the (hidden) spoiler for that specific blocker, the other being some documentation about how to make the character drop objects when playing with mouse+keyboard. Later on there's an event that looks like a hint for that blocker, so I feel someone saw the problem at the design stage. However, I replayed to check and the hint isn't available until after passing the blocker.
Is this helpful to you?
