Do not pay attention to the one star review this game rocks. Clever, tricky puzzles, fun story.

I really wanted to get lost in this game, especially after the referral from the folks at Rusty Lake. Unfortunately, it’s not atmospheric, there’s not really a story or mystery to be solved, and the puzzles are sparse and lacking in connectivity to any of it. It held my attention, I guess, but there are much better point and click puzzlers out there.
