What players say

I would give this game an "Informational" rating if I could. The art style is simply AMAZING. A tremendous amount of effort has clearly gone into creating the various comic pages that tell the story. There are TONS of panels, each one incredibly well crafted, often dynamic and featuring unusual perspectives. The problem lies in the writing. I don't want to sound too harsh; story-wise, it's an action-oriented...

More of a interactive-novel broken up by narrative/room puzzles... but a VERY good one at that. Great art, clever writing, immersive sound-design.

Really fantastic artwork, great sound design, and interesting world building. This was a pleasure to play through and was paced really well. The UI and some of the puzzles have some issues, but they're easy to over look.
