The atmosphere of this game is great. I really liked the secret, chuckled a good bit at that.
Other than that, at first I didn't really know what I was doing until I found the first item. But the best I got with that at Granny was Failure -0.0 so idk. Also there are like 100 typos in the game (and a lot of missing periods) and having to listen to the characters intro again every time is a bit annoying.
The look and feel of the world is great. I also feel like the characters were generally well written. However I felt there was quite a lot of friction exploring what they had to say in how you had to repeat the initial greetings before getting to the options each time. And I never understood the hints they were supposed to give off so I had to brute force myself through the granny wheel. And then I couldn’t really be asked to click through the brute’s options to force their wheel too.
The UI had a few problems, but it was manageable.
What I liked the most though was the atmosphere and finding the secret.

Cool game! I enjoyed it! Really love the aesthetic!
You really nailed the aesthetic! I also loved the 2.5D sprite look for the NPCs. Combined with the sound design, it immediately builds a wonderfully moody, eerie atmosphere.
I feel like I missed a crucial step somewhere, though. Besides the vodka, I couldn't find any real clues, the suspects didn't really want to talk to me, and the hermit was nowhere to be found :(
Thank you! Glad you liked it
After you find booze, you can give it to granny (Actions answer in the dialogue) and she will tell you next lead
Not the most intuitive gamedesign decision, for sure:(
