Beautiful, but some obvious flaws
I wanted to like this game, but overall it was a bit of a let down. I do hope the authors keep up the good work and improve the points I'll mention in the following. The art style is absolutely fantastic, exactly what I was hoping for, bringing back good vibes from my childhood. The music is okay, it mostly matches the atmosphere. The music playing in the druid hut (one of the early locations, and one you'll visit frequently) is incredibly annoying and should be replaced or simply removed in my opinion. The dialogs are full of typos and incorrect English (the German translation is also done poorly). If the devs want to release a patch, this is something that should be addressed with high priority. I like some amount of 4th walling, but it occurs way too early in the game, at a time when the player is not yet properly immersed in the game world. Many of the puzzles feel random and there are too few hints that nudge you in the right direction if you're stuck (perhaps a matter of taste; this is of course true to the spirit of early point&click adventure games). Besides the choice of language, there is not a single game setting to adjust, like windowed vs. full-screen, font size or text speed. On Linux the game freezes when you Alt-Tab to another window (probably an issue of AGS though. Run "pkill ags64" from your console when that happens to terminate the frozen process). Btw. the same issue also affects "The Castle" by the same company.
