This is a really interesting concept, the mix of genres is one i dont think ive ever seen before, but it fits very well with the theming, super cool. The controls dont feel super intuitive to me, but then again i prefer turning with the mouse, so..
One thing i especially liked is that, while in most games, you "research" just by clicking a button and then your character comes up with something, here you actually have a bit of the research process, in that you observe events and then create hypotheses/theories from those observations.
