Good presentation with some remarks
I finished the demo, my best possible rating would be 3.5 stars. It runs on latest Wine on my 11th Gen intel GPU with Garuda Linux. However, not so smoothly. The game uses the Unreal Engine. In this time, it produces scattered lags. Graphical presentation, the modelling and animations, are the best. Good: No limited lives, no occluded environment, no time limit. It is fully playable with caveats. It is a horror game throughout (no blood though) despite the cute look. The demo is a seamless connection of escape-the-room puzzles and feels comparatively big but the rooms are sometimes filled with hidden traps. There is no extra level selection scene. It ends at the big knight statue pictured above. The story is most minimal. The intro cutscene is shown in the trailer. Everything else is narrated by gameplay. No voice over. The explanation or help is minimal too but when I remember right, there are few key hints. The puzzles cannot be solved a prior. Random trying is not so much my personal preference. Sometimes I needed to cheat and passed without available mechanisms. These factors reduce the experience of blind playthroughs. Game design: I had to figure out at least some of the controls by myself. I did not know that you need to press an extra key to run and died directly being catched by the chasing hand, maybe even multiple times. Stressful scenes are unsuitable when controls are not introduced already. Unfortunately, my manufacturer provided keyboard with touch on keys is not good for gaming and here it really sucks. Selecting a target for the bear while activating a mechanism with the boy requires mouse input, an extra device. I tried a GCN controller but still needed the keyboard for the bear actions. Inconvenient. These factors make the experience is a bit inconvenient or annoying for me as someone whose frustration tolerance is not that high. I miss rewards or feeling success for escaping the rooms. This is why this game is not on my priority list now.
