As of right now I would recommend waiting on this title unless you own an original copy, as there isn't any manual included. This makes the game hard to play as the menus are many level deep, icons only and no in-game information on what you are expected to do.
In-short: Simple, short and buggy. Some of the puzzles can't be solved (cause you can't see the parts you need to solve the puzzle). Except for that it is hunting for hidden items, sliding puzzles and minesweeper. The controls is very obviously ported from a console controller and is very clonky and annoying to use with a mouse. For example the controls for picking inspect, interact or read is movement pressure based, like it was meant to be operated with the analog stick of a gamepad this means you will have to keep pushing the mouse cursor slowly off the screen to not go back into the center. All in all a cute game, but the bugs, relatively easy puzzles and horrible controls make it an none memorable experience.
An ok story, but don't expect any game play. The story is linear with no choices left to the player. The only interaction is to move between the self playing segments. Wouldn't have bought it if I knew it wasn't a game at all.
Software rendering is the only mode that works and that's really slow with this game. Hardware rendering mode hangs the computer from time to time and has sever unresolved rendering bugs. http://www.gog.com/forum/gorky_17/weird_graphics_bug
From the screenshots I could tell that it probably wasn't a grate puzzle game. But I did not foresee that they would add insult to injury! The storyline is like many of the other say week, the controls are buggy, and several times I had to close the game cause Arian wouldn't move from her spot. All that would have been ok, if it wasn't that IDIOTIC idea of disabling most of the mini puzzles and making many of the tasks "click on it to complete it" it made me feel cheated and furriness?!? The few tasks that are left is so easy it feels more like an interactive move where you click to continue. Don't wast your time on this game, any the others in the store is more worth your wile.
