(Slight spoilers as I gush about everything in this game)
A very short but, personally, emotionally impactful fun puzzle game.
Point-and-click puzzle games are definitely one of my fave genres up there - it's very satisfying to just click and learn about everything as you think about how to go about the game. The longest part of the game that new players will find themselves in Loftlock would be in the attic where this happy, slightly upbeat music accompanies you while you try to solve the puzzle. I loved seeing Runi's personality show through their musings and comments, and the environment tells so much about the relationship between them and their grandmother. I also loved seeing bits of lore about the setting of this game. The art itself is gorgeous, the soft warm air in the attic I could feel even when I'm shivering from my air conditioning in real life. The different emotions on the characters as they make their dialogues were fun to see too. Both the art and writing make each individual item in the game feel more real and natural in this fantasy setting.
But all of those could not compare to the emotional impact that hit me as the music transitions when you finally solve the puzzle. Personally, it had a line that hit me like a break down truck - but regardless of that, I like how both the player and Runi can get the same realization (the player getting too focused on solving the puzzle then bam) as their grandmother explains the book. The music choice is perfect. I didn't know a short game could hold so much weight but now I do. Thanks for the nice fun ride :)
