Interesting game. Traveling from a mirror world to the real world with the unique gimmick of getting help from real players through it's own in-game subbredit on a computer. While it was cool at first to get stuff from other players, you get an item that you can't use to proceed so you upload it than a different player can use it and you download the item you need that a different player did. That's interesting.
But it has a creature that will chase you, which makes it extremely frustrating trying to do puzzles. The creature spawn stalks around the area constantly slowing down the puzzle solving TO A HALT. Since while the creature is active, you can't exit the mirror world to get to the computer to access the subreddit needed to progress and when the puzzle can be solved in the mirror world the creature is still around getting in the way. I found it easier to just DIE to the creature often, since there are periods where the creatures doesn't spawn at all. Allowing me to freely solve the puzzle.
There was an fun NES segment, where I had to get all the cables, nes, a game, and controller. With I starting out with 1 and uploading it so others players can use it. Than after doing so I had to play just a cute in-game nes type game. It was fun. My favorite segment of this game. There is a part where a spooky thing happens so you have to call a number to install a fix for the game. Which is neat. The creature just happened to not spawn my entire time during this segment so really just let me enjoy the puzzle.
But ran it has a puzzle showing the major weakness of the subbredit mechanic. It is required to deliver 4 boxes to a corresponding door. You have to label each box correctly by typing it in manual, so if you misspell or copy off info from someone on the subreddit that misspelled and don't catch it while you're delivering the boxes. You must exit the mirror world return to the computer to fix the spelling. That sucks but also the creature is there killing me. Making me have to get the boxes from the computer again, since items are lost on death. I also have to guess where the boxes go, I assume the players get more specific hints on which boxes go where. But I couldn't find any, so it besides the toy train going to the room with train rails. I was forced to try all of the boxes on the remaining 3 doors. Again it was just easier to die to the creature for it to have a chance to not spawn instead of run around with this thing chasing me as I tried 3 boxes on 3 doors.
There was a frustrating periodic table puzzle. There is a set off buttons in the shape of that table. You have to look into windows where there are various numbers or letters. Having to figure out elements you need to press on the button and which from the random red hearings are important. If I wanted to help, I would have to go down stairs every time to exit the mirror room and check the subbredit. Only to have to see if someone explained how to deceiver the info well. Nobody did so I had to just youtube check. To figure out wtf numbers were important from the like 5 red herrings, testing it on a period table keypad. Just really tedious. So I gave up just looked it up on youtube.
Fun game at first. But holly crap it felt like shit to keeping going towards the end. I am giving up on act 5, where the game handed me a safe and stethoscope. That only info as to what to do sometimes an audio que while the dile seems to randomly switching between letting me spin it clockwise or counterclockwise. Under a time limit. I have no clue how to progress even though I'm cheating by looking it up. So I'm pissed.
