Ratings and reviews

Good game. Lots of puzzles and things to figure out. I gave 4 stars for redundant, unnecessary moving back and forth to different locations (although got me to get the fast travel simply out of frustration, so clever money maker). Got stuck a couple times, but simply by going back through virtually EVERY location there was still something unfinished and matching to items/pictures should prevent purchasing the also unnecessary hints/guide. Kept me busy and entertained, so dont mind the money.

Downloaded long ago then forgot I owned it, but finally played through and enjoyed the experience. Puzzles are quite easy. Piecing together clues is fun if hints aren't often used. The flow of discoveries isn't confusing like I've often seen from similar games. Playtime was ±3 hours – I wasn't rushing. Overall it's a relaxing, smooth-running game. Kept my brain occupied with good, clean fun.

engaging solo adventure, puzzles and objects to find and use to further unravel a mystery. lots and lots of going back and forth, though, throughout about 70 different scenes and locations. I did pay for the fast travel option and also for all hints, @ .99 cents U.S. each. definitely helped so much and worth the small price. enjoyed the fantasy elements and medieval historical locations explored as a modern adventurer. look forward to playing similar games from this developer.
