TR-49

I thoroughly enjoyed this one. The puzzle part of the game is mostly identifying missing portions of code through reading text. The story was interesting and there are multiple endings.

Absolutely stunning. One of the best games I've played recently; the story genuinely nearly made me shed a few tears. Still terribly upset there's no 'Abbi meets Liam IRL' ending, but okay.. Beautiful voice acting anyways, and I was really surprised that trying to exhaust the dialogue had consequences. Overall will 100% recommend.

Great game with very unique story telling. Well worth playing

This game is quite similar to The Roottrees are dead but it is more narrow in it's delivery and story. The gameplay is okay and navigation in the entries is very satisfying when your match is correct. While i have some grip that the commands are a bit obscur to find (if it is even showed) but to resort to some brute forcing devalue a bit some logical thinking. It is not that much mind you but being stuck sucks a bit. But whilethe game is short and condense, the ideas behind are great and i enjoyed my time with it.

An incomprehensible, unplayable mess. Essentially a walking simulator where you click instead of walk? Maybe there's more to it, but there's not even an effort to make you want it, or any edges to grab onto. Click click click "something happened!" *random "story" exposition that is meaningless, click click click repeat repeat." Voice acting is OK but the writing is absolute trash and gameplay seems nonexistent. I really wish Steam would start banning publishers / developers who blatantly lie about their game content. Pass on this. To be very clear: this "puzzle game" has ABSOLUTELY NO PUZZLE ELEMENTS.

I really enjoyed my play through and I think there is a lot to recommend here. You find yourself in a mysterious cellar faced with a machine with rudimentary inputs that allow you to enter a two character, two digit code. That's the entire UI. The puzzle is discovering the combinations you need to enter to traverse the web of stored documents in the machine. In most cases the codes are completely discoverable from the information presented to you. There are a few cases of trial and error as you scan through a set of possible combinations, but this is rare. In addition, you are often treated to references to real world literature as you do this. As you explore the library of content stored in the machine you'll discover a cast of characters and their relations to one another. The game does a terrific job of taking notes for you in a series of dossiers for each character and publication.

VERY fun! The game is highly immersive, and I'm impressed by the multiple ways you can control everything. The controls are very flexible. Clicking, dragging, keyboard; it all works! The only thing I wish for is a way to tell how many total things (cards) I haven't seen. Now that I've beaten the game, I want to see the content I missed or couldn't find. I don't want to spend many hours brute forcing to see everything. I highly recommend opening the settings and turning off hints to see how far you can get without them. I beat the game (good ending) without them after about 5 hours.
