good.
Maybe I just expected too much from this game. Before it, I played Lily’s Well, and I absolutely loved that one: the story really hit me, I was motivated to unlock the true ending, and everything you did there felt logical and well thought out. This game, unfortunately, feels like it’s missing all of that. The story doesn’t pull you in, and it’s hard to care about the characters at all — with the exception of Caroline, maybe. On top of that, some of the visual choices are just strange. For example, when it starts snowing, the effect is so harsh it actually strains your eyes. But the weirdest part is how much attention is given to the protagonist’s deaths. It feels like the artist is genuinely enjoying lingering on them. In Lily’s Well, there were disturbing moments and deaths too, but they were scary in a meaningful, appropriate way. Here, you get dozens of different mutilated corpses and death scenes, all drawn with almost loving detail — and it quickly becomes uncomfortable rather than effective. The puzzles aren’t engaging either. Most of the time it’s just “guess which item goes where.” Often, logical uses for items don’t work, and the protagonist doesn’t comment on failed attempts in any interesting way, unlike in Lily’s Well, where the main character’s reactions added a lot of clarity. The locations are also way too large and empty. In Lily’s Well they felt more compact, intimate, and cozy. Here you’re forced to run back and forth across huge, barren areas far too often. Chase sequences quickly turn into routine. They’re not challenging — just repetitive and boring. Overall, the game didn’t live up to my expectations. It’s not terrible, but it feels pretty mediocre as a whole.

Regret buying it. The dev's other games are much better. Nothing in it that would make it either interesting or not confusing
First of all, coming off Lilys Well I really tried to like this game but I just couldnt. Maybe it's because I'm a big dumb dumb, but I couldn't understand what the story is about at all. Since you can solve the puzzles at any order you like you also get the story elements in random order aswell and you have to put the puzzle pieces together in your head. Well I couldnt keep track of all the different people, who did what and when or how it all tied back to the player character. After completing the game I watched the other endings on Youtube but that didn't help me either. As for the puzzles they were mostly alright. I really liked how the game lets you explicitly know when you are done in with some objects. Also there is no dead man walking syndrome which is always a bonus. I'll admit that I had to consult a walkthrough couple of times because I couldnt understand the adventure game moon logic for some of the puzzles. I really liked the different death screens and the amusing writing that came with those. But the game really should autoload the last autosave when you die instead of booting you back to the title screen. That would help keep up the immersion more and also it wouldn't waste the players valuable time. It also good how you can visit the graves section to look at them again. The graves section overall is really nicely done, It's way better than some boring list of different death screens. The other thing that was kinda dissapointing coming off Lilys Well was the lack of unlockable costumes. In Lilys Well you unlocked the costumes organically throught the gameplay and you could try them on during your first playthrough. In Lost Cartridge however I finished the game before It gave me another costume literally before the end credits. Overall the game couldn't hook me and for this and all the other reasons I can't recommend this game, atleast not for 6€.
pretty spooky well worth ti
Haunting library.
If you dig Lily's Well or I Cannot Drown, check this out. Hell, if you like RPGmaker horror games in general, this a solid one, and well worth the price tag. The art is good, the puzzles are entertaining, and it gave me a few good spooks.
This game can keep you intrigued and always on alert. There's room for some dark humour also, like the old sierra adventure games. Recommended.
This is what happens when you return your library books late.
My horny ass could not be in that library 😭😭😭
