Good introduction to mystery IFs, December 4, 2013
by streever (America)

This would be a good mystery IF for a new player.

It was easy to solve without hints, and I felt a sense of satisfaction at having completed the game.

The writing was at times over-done--more pastiche than parody--and the game suffers from a few pointless stereotypes. Despite those flaws, this was a fun mystery, and one that won't take you more than 20 minutes or so if you have any experience with the conventions.

The game has some truly humorous moments, and some funny writing, mixed in with the sense of dread and horror. I did feel genuinely immersed in the experience when threatening and creepy events were taking place, and cracked a wry smile when reading my horoscope later in the game.

I enjoyed this and am looking forward to more from the writer.
