Folks; it's hard to tell if others are playing this game but I know a couple of you have a close connection to the people at Big Fish Games. Perhaps you would be willing to forward some information to them.

I have found a programming flaw which results in a dead end; something that got by the beta testers.

Rather than post a lengthy narrative here describing the problem, it might be more efficient if I write it up and send it to one of you - Marian or Ana, or whoever the most appropriate contact would be. You may send me a private message, and I'll keep an eye out.

Thanks
Doug

So - for the record, I like this game very much.

Yes, I found a flaw in the programming, but I suspect it won't affect very many players because the majority will take a more "normal" path than I did. I sent the details to Ana, who promised to send it on to BFG. I am confident that the programmers will be able to correct the defect and publish a patch.

That said, everything is high quality. The storyline hangs together, the artwork is very satisfying, the music (which most people overlook, but not this musician) is totally appropriate; and the puzzles are nicely designed. Some are same-old with a new look, and some are new ideas. Voice acting gets high marks - it seems natural, not forced.

Where I am in the game is:
First playthrough - got into a dead-end.
Second time - played quickly to be sure the dead-end is avoidable
Third time - played quickly to ensure the dead-end is repeatable
Fourth time - played slowly to enjoy and finish the main game.
For that round I used the player-name Intrepid. Appropriate yes?

Now to go back and do the Bonus Chapter.
