  • Supports solo and cooperative play, offering a fun social experience with friends.
  • Multiplayer aspects feel underdeveloped, with limited player interaction and issues such as inability to rejoin sessions.
  • Game is relatively short with some puzzles feeling too simple or repetitive, leading to a lack of depth for some players.
  • Several technical issues and bugs, including game-breaking glitches and occasional player getting stuck, affecting overall experience.

  • graphics

    16 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, 31% neutral mentions, 19% negative mentions

    The graphics receive mixed feedback, with many praising the unique, colorful, and cartoon-like art style for its atmosphere and charm, while some criticize its simplicity and occasional technical flaws that impact immersion. Although not photorealistic, the visuals are generally considered appealing and complement the game's puzzles and overall experience well.

    • “Cool graphics and 100% optimized.”
    • “The colorful, cartoon-like visuals are fine, but this world has so much atmosphere and character that photorealistic graphics would have elevated it into something truly breathtaking.”
    • “Nice atmosphere, good quality graphics and well made puzzles.”
    • “The artwork is simple, with basic shapes and repetitive objects.”
    • “Overall graphics are okay, but from the corner of your eye you can see the holes where terrain wasn't properly connected to the rest of the game elements, which breaks your immersion.”
    • “Additionally, this is entirely subjective, but I dislike the art style chosen for this game. Escape First Alchemist looked fantastic and I felt like it had a great atmosphere, which this game lacks.”

  • gameplay

    15 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    47% positive mentions, 33% neutral mentions, 20% negative mentions

    The gameplay is praised for its fun and engaging mechanics, especially the use of potions and spells that enrich puzzle-solving and progression. Online cooperation significantly eases gameplay, though some find the character's slow movement intentionally prolongs playtime. While generally simple, the mechanics offer an enjoyable escape-room style experience with an alchemical twist.

    • “Game mechanics and power potions ability is a game changer and a fun factor to have.”
    • “The progression of gaining new spells, that help you reach new parts of the levels, works well as an extra motivation and enriches the gameplay as time passes.”
    • “The spells you unlock as puzzle-solving mechanics are a lot of fun too.”
    • “Inviting a friend during gameplay is problematic; after one of our friends lost connection, we couldn't re-invite them back. The only solution was to recreate a new game session.”
    • “Online cooperation makes the whole gameplay 70% easier, and it seems like developers made the main hero and interactions super slow intentionally so the gameplay takes longer.”
    • “My only gripe would be that it would be nice to have a running mechanic for faster movement.”

  • story

    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    25% positive mentions, 50% neutral mentions, 25% negative mentions

    The story is charming and heartfelt, centered on a homunculus's quest for the philosopher's stone, with a cozy world and engaging puzzles that tie the narrative together. While some find it minimal and missing some expected cutscenes, it maintains attention with a twist and meaningful progression, making it enjoyable for fans of story-driven exploration. However, a few suggest the prologue alone offers a comparable experience and recommend other games for a more expansive story.

    • “As a homunculus on a quest to find the philosopher's stone, the game delivers a charming story with a surprising amount of heart.”
    • “There are no side quests, no filler, no fluff, just the puzzles, a cozy world, and a story that ties it all together.”
    • “The story was pretty good, and had a twist that we only noticed immediately since we were paying attention.”
    • “The story is minimal, with most of the narrative revealed in cutscenes at the beginning and end of the game.”
    • “The story is... there... and honestly it's a bit sad, you've lost all of those cool cutscenes that were meant to make this some grand adventure, and if I'm truthful, just play the prologue because it's a lot better and offers you about the same playtime, and it's still the same experience, if not better.”
    • “I don't mean to be so harsh, just for the price tag, it would be better to get another game like Voidtrain for its story, or In-Sync if you like co-op puzzles.”
