As most of the reviews said its very interesting game, good atmosphere and overall presentation. UI is good as well. I think that game got kinda confusing and think that you would benefit from smaller scale, make the town very dense not too big since I also got lost couple of times. If the map is too big we would need some navigation UI to help us as well. If the town was smaller like couple of homes on street the game would fit it perfectly. Overall you nailed the atmosphere and the looks.

Interesting horror investigation game. Could've done with some volume controls because the first time the music kicked in in town was probably the most startled I got by the game. The NPC dialogue got very samey very fast which made it kinda easy to spot the missing and suspect, I succeeded my first investigation pretty much just by taking a guess on who got some variance in their lines. I really like the vibe of the game though, and the concept honestly seems strong enough to carry a full release with some more development. Good work.

Thanks a ton for the review! I had some problems before submission unfortunately and never got around to adding and changing dialogue.. I really appreciate the feedback, and settings will definitely go higher on my todo list in the future!

You managed to convey the atmosphere of the old games quite well, but I got confused in the game itself — I didn’t know what I was supposed to do.

Thanks for playing! I definitely focused too much on the vibe of this game rather than the gameplay. The goal is to find the NPC that acts 'strange', then click the "sign here" area on their page in the notes. Thanks again for the comment and playing the game!

Replaced WebGL build with an exe, misunderstood the download rule. Apologies!
