Thanks for checking it out, even if it wasn't your type of thing! It means a lot that you still gave it the time of day.
The game was designed so that the player would be able to take notes & map things out on their own using pen & paper, but in hindsight I might have to include something in the opening scrawl to make it a bit clearer since I can definitely understand how some people might find the directions confusing to navigate otherwise.
