I will keep this short because there are other. longer reviews which make clear what some people will find lacking in this game. As others have pointed out, there aren't really what I would call "puzzles" in this game. It may be I just don't find them particularly interesting as puzzles. When the final puzzle for a section of a game is mixing someone a drink, you aren't talking about a lot of excitement and mystery. I know a lot of people enjoyed the story but I find the premise unlikely at best. The idea of a woman having an adventure and learning self-reliance and independence is fine, but the particular events that take place are so bizarre for the most part that I can't imagine anyone, woman or man, feeling like they were on a journey of self-discovery. I imagine most people would think they were trapped in some Kafka-esque novel that was leading the to their doom. It's possible I'm thinking too much about the story. This game kind of reminds me of the first time I walked into a Big Lots store (deep discount remainder store for those who have never heard of them). The tool section in particular made me feel like I was shopping in some Eastern European Soviet-era store where you couldn't actually get what you wanted, but instead had to settle for third-rate knockoff tools that would break two weeks later. Other than that, it's a great game!
