Good but a Bit Frustrating, August 7, 2026

This is a decent game. The story pulls you in a bit, I wasn't entranced but I was curious enough to keep going even towards the end of the game which is where the problem comes in. The problem is that the puzzles get harder and the hints are too vague, I'll admit I'm not the smartest or most creativity IF player, but I'm probably around average, and I never would have gotten some of those puzzles without using the walkthrough. Additionally, there's one part the walkthrough missed that I found in an old forum, so here's a very blatant hint for if you're stuck trying to get past the shadow:

(Spoiler - click to show) There may be a room you missed. There's an odd portrait on the stairs up from the lobby, there's no door behind it but maybe you should check inside it? You'll get past the shadow in a flash.

Overall a good game, although a bit frustrating and dissatisfying in the end.
