  • I really like the atmosphere you build with art and music, interesting game idea, unfortunately, while playing I faced some issues I picked up fuse I opened the fuse box but there were no way to place it also when I choose mechanics to interact with items you pick fuse from you inventory and it just disappears. Game really would benefit from guidance on how the mechanics works. Great attempt, keep going!

Tekeli-li, yall! I be loving me some craft, even not being a fan of point and click per se.

Loved the sound and atmosphere, the only critique I have that game's really short.

I really liked the spooky atmosphere you guys made here. The sound design really sold it for me. Its so eerie and mysterious.... No major critiques that I have. Its a solid point and click. Good work!

I'm enjoying the atmosphere and the point and click style puzzles. Something in the shadows keeps killing me though! I'm determined to find out what! Nicely made game, artwork and ambience are top notch!
