Honey, we have Rusty Lake at home. Except, with less charm, worse puzzles and much worse art style.

Love the game itself, but the navigation between houses in the later stages is just ridiculously finicky. Ruined the experience.

At first glance Forgotten Hill might look like "We got Rusty Lake at home", but don't let that fool you, it does have a identity of it's own, even if clearly inspired by RL. The puzzles are very familiar both in what we got in similar games, so if you played other games like this, you will not have any major issues. The "No hint" achievement isn't even that hard honestly, mostly because if you played similar games...
