it actually felt great, like I was on the same wavelength as the storytelling, to be able to guess correctly
This was exactly how I felt a couple of times during my playthrough and I absolutely loved it. It was one of my favorite parts of the Case of the Golden Idol DLC also, where I knew I definitely could have spent a bit more time making sure my deduction was 100% accurate before entering it, but my hunch was also correct. It's a difficult balance to strike and you've done it extremely well in the couple of games I've played so far - currently going through the Daily Spell archive and y'alls catalog in general
