I had fun playing this! As someone who likes to walk around old cemeteries for fun, I especially liked the incorporation of the gravestone symbolism.

So glad you enjoyed it! That was very much my inspiration for this game (walking around old cemeteries for fun!).

This was a lot of fun! I always love when supernatural shenanigans are treated sort of matter-of-factly as an annoyance. Don't you just hate when necromancers start causing trouble in your quaint New England town?

I'm glad you had fun with it! Love that our entries seem to have that in common (supernatural shenanigans treated matter-of-factly).

It's very good (of course; that's no surprise).  It did feel like it lacked a little depth, both in its puzzles and in its story. Puzzlewise: the deductions were pretty straightforward, and being presented with options meant you weren't likely to be thinking, "I could solve this if only I had another piece of information, like what gender the names are".  And the [redacted] section wasn't bad, though the puzzles were more "try things, if they fail, restart the section and try different things".

Still enjoyable, to be sure.

Thank you for playing!
