What players say

This was a cute but sometimes frustrating point & click game. If your not into 100% games, this game will take you about 9h to complete. Story wise it did not do much for me, but I really found the puzzle parts fun and a bit challenging.

I am going to presume here everyone knows what a point-and-click game is like. It is a rather great point-and-click adventure. I am not saying it is very in-depth or anything: it is linear like almost all point-and-click games. In this one, I appreciated that most item usage made sense and the theme/message of the game is quite cool. It's about 10 hours.

Nice game. Point-n-click puzzle solver. Pleasing graphics, character design. Haven't completed the game, but the story seems promising. There are some nice hidden gems in the game, from social commentary, to meme references. Streamed here, Encodya
