Ratings and reviews

It really starts well, and the concept is there. The problem is that in an attempt to make it challenging it dissolves from actual puzzles into obscure nonsense. Not like the puzzles are hard to interpret, they just aren't puzzles. It's often just giving you tools and instead of giving you knew clues they use interpret art and expect you to interpret the art as they intended. It's a pointless exercise in guessing and ruins the game part way through. Basically it's too vague.

This app really surprised me, and was so much fun. Finding all of the secret notes was an exciting challenge! I 100% completed it in my free time in about 3-4 days, and would play any sequels they decide to put out. For other puzzle gamers: The navigation throughout the game (and 2nd bonus level with the rotating center) gave me Myst vibes. There was also an a-ha moment reminiscent of The Witness' use of perspective that I liked.

Short and lovely experience. The atmosphere is pleasant, the style is gorgeous, and the puzzles are satisfying to interact with. It's not a hard game, by any means, but it's still fun. My favourite feature is the possibility to take pictures of hints, so you don't need to run back and forth when you don't remember a code by heart. Great QoL feature. I'll be playing the sequels :)
