Very fun mystery adventure game with a delightful final set piece.
The game features tight writing, a clean graphic style, and a compelling story that keeps players engaged.
It runs smoothly on the Steam Deck and offers a nostalgic experience reminiscent of classic games.

Some gameplay moments can feel obtuse, making it difficult to figure out necessary actions to progress.
The lack of a log option to reread previous lines or a replay button for voiced dialogue is a notable drawback.
The game may feel a bit short for the price, leaving some players wanting more content.
