Ratings and reviews

I have given it a 3. I love the originality, the story, the artwork, the theme, the music, its simplicity. It has great potential. Some elements were a little frustrating, the zooming in and out was quite disruptive to my experience. It wasnt clear to me what I had to do and haf to rely on the walkthroughs that helped me get aquainted with the game further. I only got 2 of the secrets. Overall I really enjoyed the game. It has potential. Congrats on it being the developers first game!!!@

Just finished playing! I recommend it to anyone who enjoys a relaxing puzzle game. Throughout the game, we follow Milo sneaking around the neighbourhood and we have to interact with the environment to help him find the way back home. It is funny to see the solution to some puzzles and the end is unexpected and touching. My favourite part of the game was the pleasing piano soundtrack. Congratz Johan and Second Maze for the good work!

Although it's a bit short, it's also only around 2 dollars too. The graphics remind me of "The Snowman", "Beatrix Potter", and the piano music fits the game nicely. If you get such stuck, the hints link to a YouTube playthrough (so you could, technically, just watch the whole game without paying it). However, there are some hidden bugs in each area that they playthrough video doesn't seem to give away. Combining these with the area select option might give some replay value.
