Really liked the drawing mechanic! Such a unique idea. The voicelines are also a great addition in my opinion. The game freezed for a few seconds during drawing though. Overall I really liked the game!

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it! Yeah, the web version might have some issues, maybe I will add some performance settings for lower drawing resolutions in a later update.

Great game! I really enjoyed the riddles. I couldn't solve the murder puzzle involving the movable steel plates, though. Really well done overall!

Developer

Thanks! Yeah that one is quite hard, but you were pretty much done then!

Very clever interpretation! As you said I think our games are based on the same riddle, its cool to see how we've both expanded on it. There were a couple of puzzles I think where a second correct answer was marked as wrong, but all round very good :)

Developer

Glad you liked it :)

Do you remember which ones? I am pretty sure only a couple puzzles have multiple solutions, and in those case the other solutions should be accepted.

So clever! We played through the whole thing. A little ending might have been rewarding, at least hearing the narrator congratulate us. That being said, this was great. Thanks!

Developer

Yeah I agree. The current "ending" was done rather quickly to meet the deadline :D

well executed and fun idea
voiceover is a welcome addition

Yoo our games are close lol, I made something like this as well. Well done, I liked the visuals and the calm music. I appreciate the fullscreen button in the game, as mine on the itch is not working right now. I have a question, are there any puzzles with multiple correct answers?


Edit: I am still playing, I realized there were multiple correct answers ok. Good to know. Really fun game!

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

Yes, but only two of them (three if you include the all-green one) have multiple solutions. I did not manage to come up with a simple three-statue level that had a unique solution xD
