What players say

Players praise the historical mystery and colonial setting, but split hard on the gameplay. Some find puzzles fair and satisfying, while others call them a guess-driven trial and error slog. Many agree the game demands heavy backtracking and slow walking across empty screens, and a few mention the plot twist landed well.
