Assorted short reviews
A strange game that didn't seem to make a lot of sense and was annoyingly difficult in places, but oddly likeable all the same. Several times I seem to find myself at a dead end but then just managed to figure out what I needed to do to make further progress. I struggled quite frequently with the correct wording for some of the puzzles, and exits being incorrectly marked from a couple of locations didn't help either. Still, for a game written in three hours, this wasn't bad at all.
