Cool concept, and kudos for the huge amount of writing you must've done to make all the critters' messages! I think the idea of flipping thru the book and trying to quickly find relevant info, or having to fill in the blanks where there i no good answer, is quite fun. I could also see it being fun to get a sense of mastery from learning all the different critters, maybe allowing harder modes with no book or very short time limits. Sometimes it was a bit too easy, like the critter would say "i like X, what do you like?" and X would be one of the options, so I wouldnt need to use the book. Nice work!

Thank you for the feedback! I would totaly want to work more on dialogues. I just felt that after making bestiary and time limit it was really hard to give all those conversations enough personalities. So they were simplified and rushed a bit. I would love players to spend more time reading bestiary rather than selecting pretty obvious options.
But I am happy you liked the concept!
