The value story

May 2024 is where it bottomed out, at $1.49. It has been discounted 75 times in the 8 years tracked here, typically at 87 percent off, with about 5 weeks between sales.

It is pricier than 98 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 61 percent. On the same math Thimbleweed Park™ ($19.99, scores 71) and Gibbous - A Cthulhu Adventure ($19.99, scores 62) are the better buys, and they are the games it most resembles.

Of the 621 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 1 comes from a buyer who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 46 percent of the 105 reviews written there were positive, against 73 percent overall, and those are 7 percent of everything written about it.

At 5.6 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.

It's a very dry game. I didn't like the Voice Actress's English, so I swapped to German. Thanks for including subtitles. Great set design though, I love all the scenes. It clearly was LucasArts/Monkey Island inspired, but it doesn't have the charm. I don't know why I'm giving it a thumbs up, It's in no way worth 30 dollars Maybe 30 deutsche marks.

I am very happy, that I actually liked the game, because I like supporting German Devs and Publishers. The Game has a very endearing art style and overall good German voice acting. The puzzles in the game are mostly good and logical, but there are a view, where it was a little tedious to solve them. Overall I would say, the game was a bit on the easy side (especially, if you have a LucasArts-absurdity-trained...

The game has great graphics but that's about it. The puzzles are unintuitive, the story makes no sense, and the characters have no depth. We had to resort to walkthroughs to get through the game, which was very unsatisfying.
