Cons
❌ everything about this game (animations, story progress and gameplay pacing, mouse speed, camera movement, screen transitions) is so slow. unfortunately, this makes the game boring
❌ there are some boring scientific and mundane conversations between two characters
❌ unreal engine laggy and runs with low fps
❌ In the middle of the game, you finally realize what's going on in this game. However, after that you start fetch quests and the game drags on. At that point, the game even forces you to watch an unskippable mini concert
❌ unskippable credits roll, cutscenes and some dialogues
❌ some puzzles don't make sense and the solutions blurry.
❌ there is no manual save, only auto save
❌ game is short
Overall, I found this game slow and boring and I have mixed feelings about it. However, it's not a terrible game, so I give it a thumbs up.

If there is one thing I sympathized with Gretchen than Hans. How about a reboot of a sequel with Gretchen as the main protagonist?
Somehow this game reminded me of some East German stop motion kids TV content from the 80s - this, along with the Maniac Mansion, Zak McKracken, Kathy Rain, Lovecraft and even James Bond(!) vibes were an instant sell for me, and I never regret the decision of jumping head first into this adventure.

Some of you have never seen Twin Peaks and it shows

The game is on the short side, and not overly difficult, but the animation is lovely and the story is pretty good.

Cozy couch game adventure. Humorous, original, easy to solve puzzles, not too challenging. Good voice acting with a twist.

We played this two and a half times, and overall it's very enjoyable.
The art style is impeccable, and the best part of this game.
On some puzzles, it's not immediately clear what the goal is or, in some cases, the solution is somewhat silly. Nonetheless, they are generally satisfying to complete.

This is so much better than its reviews. I played it when it first came out and did a second playthrough five years later - there is very few games I can say this about. It's an absolute labour of love, and the setting, the scenes, the loving stop motion animation and the soundtrack alone are worth your time. give it a shot. right now it's at 90% off, you can't go wrong.
