As an aficionado of traditional point and click adventure games I was immediately drawn to this game when I heard about it. After playing it through I must say that it is one of the most beautiful independent adventure games I have ever played. Everything ranging from the music to the unique art style was just perfect in my opinion. It is immediately apparent that a lot of hard work has gone into creating the game and for that I am left in awe at the dedication of the developers. The only reason for why I did not give this game a full five star rating boils down to two things: firstly, I believe that all in all, the game is simply too short (I understand that this is only the first episode in a longer planned series but it definitely left me craving for more. This could arguable be seen as a good thing). Secondly, and this is perhaps the most glaring flaw in my experience, the game has at least one major bug which left the game unplayable after a certain point. The bug seems to only occur on some playthroughs and only to certain people as I was later able to re-install the game and finish it without a hitch. Nonetheless, it left me feeling frustrated with a game that I deemed otherwise perfect.
Regardless of this, I recommend everyone who has yet to play this game to download it right away and give it a try. This applies doubly so to fans of the (fabled to be dead) adventure game genre.

Nice stage graphics and sounds, but the character can be better. I find some bugs too.

This game is awesome! It reminds me a lot of Full Throttle for the computer. The graphics were uniqe and awesome. The puzzles were really difficult, which is what I love about the game. The music was really good, too, it was catchy and cool.

This game deserves a 5/5, and I'm sure everyone aggrees with me when I say this.

Very well put together. Reminds of all those awesome Sierra games back in the day. Not too easy...not too hard...just right on the difficulty end. Looking forward to the coming chapters in the game. Now just to find the other spices...

EXCELLENT !
I did find a problem. The game worked perfectly for 2 days and when I tried to load it on the 3rd day it crashed. Said AGS problem etc and created this file: CrashInfo.3.12.1074.dmp
I was going to send the dmp file to Theodore.waern@gmail.com but I don't have OR want an account there.
Anyway, Started over and played the game through to the end and it was fine.
Very Enjoyable Game.
Excellent Work.
Congrats.

Really liked this. The puzzles were just hard enough to make me scratch my head a bit, but not too frustrating. Didn't have to try looking for solutions online, which was nice.

Glad to hear you liked the pacing! It is very important for me that you don't get stuck so long that you loose interest. Thanks!

Oh wow, I LOVE these types of games! As a big fan of Phoenix Wright & the Fedora Spade games, this already has me interested. As I was playing, I was amazed at the incredible quality of EVERYTHING, it's incredible. Very, VERY impressive!

I did encounter a few bugs, I think. At one point the game completely froze for a few seconds before going back to normal. I think I was examining a painting, I'm not sure. Currently all I need is some chervil, I just don't know where to look. I'll have to look it up xP.

All in all this game is great, and everyone should try it out. Especially if you're a fan of the PW & FS games.
