I really wanted to like it, but...
The game is a relatively (although playing it took me far more than the nominal "2.5 hours") short "puzzle-exploration" game: not really a classic point-and-click, although there IS inventory, sometimes you do need to combine items, and you certainly will click a lot - basically, you will be wandering around looking for your lost pet and trying to figure out how to give the last NPC you passed whatever you suspect they are in need of. And here is my first problem with the game - I'm sure the devs felt real smart for not involving language whatsoever (as all the interactions take an illustrated graphical form) but the result is that fairly often you end up staring at the "comic" that pops up interacting with an NPC scratching your head and trying to figure out what exactly you are looking at, narrative-wise. My second and by far biggest complaint (warranting the three star rating only as a favor, considering how frustrating this was) is that there seems to be some kind of bug remaining in the game that prevents you from solving any puzzle that requires dragging - the objects on the screen simply remain stubbornly untouchable and inert, no matter how much you try clicking and dragging; I chased this damned bug through THREE different operating systems, and it found me on all of them. Sometimes quitting and launching the game again helped - sometimes NOT. Sometimes even only SOME of the objects were draggable, which was quite enough to prevent solving the puzzle. Finally, my third issue - be warned that not even a walkthrough can help you through some of the logic puzzles, because they have random starting points and what worked in the walkthrough video will not work for you - think "tic tac toe towers" that you have to win on your own, because it's a random setup puzzle (and it's not the only one). The graphics are adequate, but the "plot" is the paper-thin "walk around and fix the local issue". Not great, not horrible - unless the drag bug gets you too.
