REALLY STRONG ENTRY HERE!
Definitely one of my top picks this contest, I can see this making it into the top 3 easy (I'll be pretty annoyed if it doesn't). I do agree with Colin though, the first lock-picking thing wasn't too bad but I feel like a bigger version in the future could get real annoying real fast. Other than that one nitpick, good writing and pacing, and despite puzzle games not being my thing at all (partially cause I suck at them), the atmosphere is real nice and kept me engaged the entire time.
Nice work on your entry!
