This could have been so good.
It started out really great. Nice atmosphere, lots of things to find, to combine and to explore. It is more like a much bigger "the Room" than something like Myst with main focus on puzzles with a bit of a story underneath. Not too easy, not too hard for the first two chapters. But with chapter 3 it got more and more confusing for me. Never knowing if I have all I need for a puzzle or if I need to find something else first. One needs a lot of patience, as the game will give you hints, yes, but more then often you just don't know what the clues are for or what they even mean. All that said, I played on a 14" laptop and I'd say a bigger screen would help a lot.
I usually enjoy puzzles and point & click adventures a lot and I'm quite a veteran of the genre.
But towards the end of this one I got more and more annoyed. Some riddles (at the end) where just torture.

We really enjoyed the game through the first two chapters but in Chapter 3 it became very non-linear and difficult to follow. If you like a point and click game then you will enjoy this. The graphics and sounds are good, we were able to find a lot of the items in the game but would recommend turning up the brightness in the game to see things better. Looks like the game has had a lot of effort put into it we just wish we could have enjoyed the last chapter.
