I hesitate to recommend this game, really... In fact, I kind of hesitate to call this a game... and yet, I've somehow managed to sink more than 60 hours into it. What the heck have I been doing all this time? I dunno... It's been kind of a slow, meditative journey of self-inflicted admin, teasing out a puzzle and a narrative via slowly catalogueing and organising the game's contents. I've even found myself maintaining a massive sprawling spreadsheet. Even now, I'm still not quite sure why I'm doing it, or why I actually enjoy it.

This recommendation comes with a qualifying statement. This game is not for everyone. It requires patience, curiosity, and a willingness to read a lot of tooltips. It rewards you greatly for doing so, but some will find the user interface (involving placing cards, that represent your resources, into verb slots, that represent potential actions you can take) too alien to enjoy. At its core it is a puzzle game with a slow dungeon delve, a rich narrative and deep lore. Part of the joy of the gameplay loop is in discovering things for yourself, and I will try not to spoil anything more here. Fans of Cultist Simulator will find a lot to like here, though this is a more gentle and forgiving journey, with (as far as I know, 29 hours in) no failure state.

豪玩 - 一如既往令人着迷的文本和世界观，我自己尤其喜欢技艺这部分，还有从回忆和自然现象（天气）中挖掘影响应用于神秘术法的路径 - 工具、性相还有能做的事变得更丰富了，节奏偏慢，没有生命危险，永远有尝试和体验的自由 - 肉眼可见用了一堆密教模拟器代码所以极好上手 以及角色扮演侧的爱好，我一直想过这种在隐居之地抛弃束缚喝茶看书观赏世界的美好小日子啊。。目前才刚开始玩期待后面内容如何 二编：我看预估游玩时间是40小时，现在三十多个小时了我还感觉才渐入佳境，原来是一款能煮饭采花泡茶养宠打工装饰屋子的超级多配方版合成大西瓜。好玩。好想穿越进游戏里过图书管理员的日子

this game is super addicting once you figure it out. its's really peaceful to play cause you can pause time and really figure things out. the only thing I didn't like is there was no tutorial on how the magic system, crafting mechanics, and upgrading abilities. like they throw you in the pool with no floaties and I had to figure out the basics and there's still some stuff I don't know how it works. but overall fun cozy game.

This game is weird. I can't recommend it. I can't tell you how to play it or why you might sink either 0 hours into it or a billion. I can say that if this is the game for you, it will find you. You won't understand how to play it at first or imagine yourself sinking hours and hours into categorizing books, learning new skills and carefully labeling/arranging various bookshelves according to your own specific needs. In short, I feel like this game is what I wanted others like Strange Antiquities/Horticulture to be and why I found myself so disappointed by them in the end. It is strange and branching with more mysteries to discover, confusing, labyrinthine and yet intuitive all the same. You truly feel like a scholar left to your own devices. It doesn't hold your hand or leave you feeling confused by various outcomes. Once you learn the hang of it, even bad outcomes are completely understandable and you just have to roll up your sleeves and try again. I think the sole thing that kept me playing is the reminder screen when you open it that states something like "if feel like you hit a dead end, it's ok." There are always more options to try and to keep going. I hope the creators take the hint and make more games like this that involve mysterious objects/ plants and larger, more mysterious towns/cities. For the time being, I feel like this game was meant for me. It won't be for everyone, but if you click around and find yourself playing for several hours without really understanding what you're doing or why, you'll be hooked.
