cool and fun. the puzzle for the menu was unintuitive though.
I really like the setting here, it's a fun take on archaeology-- a restaurant that, to us, is vaguely futuristic, and to the protagonist is entirely alien and ancient. The puzzle introduces a classic parser quest-- find bits needed to push the buttons that open the doors that you get you your prize-- but it's signaled clearly, fairly small scale, and focused. The tutorial "level" is short but gives the player the tools needed to handle the more complex environment and puzzle. I think this is a solid intro for beginners. I'm not a great parser player, but I solved this with a little thought and experimentation, no real problems. Nicely done!
The game was a lot of fun for me, I just wish it had been longer. I never got stuck at any point, thanks to the excellent explanations. I was also able to vividly imagine what was described. What I especially liked was how it felt like an old point-and-click adventure. Great game!
Super fun game! It took me embarrassingly long to realize that we are the aliens going to Earth to find a mouse. Very creative idea, loved it! Also loved the variety of puzzle difficulties! Even though I have to admit that I couldn't find the wifi password or any way to get the cheese for the mouse without downloading your walkthrough ^^" Still super fun!
