A nice little puzzle/adventure
3rd person point of view
with 1st person close-ups of puzzles

Solve the mystery of the island
Discover the identity of the disembodied voice

But has only a single autosave
Like a casual game
And bugs that cause loss of inventory
Mean you have to start over
Even after Patch 1.2

It's nice to be important but it is much more important to be nice.

That's a shame about the bugs and the no manual saving.
Thanks Jenny.

Thank you everyone. I'm glad you found the review useful.
I liked the game, but having to restart the game as much as I did (because of lost inventory and/or testimonies) was so annoying -- even though replaying didn't take that long. I'd really rather not have had to do the pitcher plant puzzle more than once. I hope they eventually work the bugs out -- and that they allow manual saves instead of using a single autosave in future games.

Good review Jenny as always.

Why on earth do developers put so much hard work into a game, go thru all the stress of getting it funded, finally get it to market and then make such an amateur mistake as allowing only one save and an autosave at that? I won't play a game with one save. And it's a shame because I love puzzle-oriented AGs.
