- The game runs, however the controls menu does not work and there no other clear instructions. The theme of alchemy is embedded in the planned functionality, but does not seem to function in game. The shadow theme referring to the darkness of the catacombs and the shadowy monster works fine. The Artstyle is basic, but serves its purpose well enough.
- The controls screen didn't work, which was important for me because I play inverted mouse controls. Moreover, I didn't know what I was doing inside the game. I knew I was trying to get away from shadows, and that there was a chance at putting runes on the ground... but I didn't get there. I got trapped by a door that wouldn't open and couldn't figure out what to do from there. The idea behind the game is great and you should keep working on it.

As a distant relative of Nicolas Flamel and a member of the Parisian Chapter of Alchemists, you have dedicated your early life to finishing your ancestors work of creating the Philosopher’s Stone. Having recently uncovered a lead bringing you to the Catacombs of Paris where you hope to find the remnants of his work, you find something far more sinister awaiting you in the shadows. Use your skills as an artificer to draw runes and transmutation circles to help explore and fend off the shadows.
