i love the vibe of this soooo much

Might be one of the coolest jam games I've ever played. The execution is very sick and the vibes are immaculate. Appreciate the hints, even if they take me a bit out of the immersion :)

Very good atmosphere - the canned sound effects and music were a little disappointing, but serviceable, and the art was fantastic. I didn't even know how to interact with things in the game until I looked in the description, which takes me out of the immersion. I had no idea what I was doing - I only got one chest on a lucky guess and didn't know how to get to the next clue.

If I could rate the presentation six stars, I would. It is IMMACULATE!
The puzzles, however, feel even more cryptic than the bottom of the rabbit hole that is Blue Prince, and doesn't pair well with an apparent time limit.
Also, with the way you circle around the clock, the cardinal directions mirrored what I was expecting.

But you folks were cooking, here!

Thank you so much for the kind words. We added a Cheat Sheet in the description of the game if you want some extra help with some of the puzzles :)

A bit on the tougher side for my pea brain, but I can at least appreciate the wonderful visuals. I especially like the clock tower in the background rotating as you move. Nice job!

Amazing presentation, could have used more bread crumbs pun intended.

Thanks for playing :) Yeah, on a mission to create something that encourages people to share clues and solve the mysteries together, I think we inadvertently made the game extremely difficult for solo players haha
