I love the game's aesthetic. The dialogue is very well-crafted, and the mystery-solving is excellent. The SFX are well-placed and enhance the setting. Congratulations, it's a great job.

The style and ideas are cool, but I found it a bit hard to understand the goal at first. Maybe if History just showed the most important interactions rather than all of them, I could more easily scroll back through. Good work!

Thank you so much! I did have the idea to have a hint button of sorts, but couldn’t implement in time, maybe I can have an update sometime that adds it.
