Awoseme game, loved everything - the look/art, the music, love the detective theme. I personally didn't have any problems or complaints about finding items to click/collect or how to get out of a scene. I think maybe it is designed to be that way on purpose, so as the item in perticular not be so distinguishable and easy to find from the rest of the art in the scene you are examining. I can see how that can be annoying for some, buy I personally love that everything is merged and unified. Great game, thank you.

This was an interesting game. I had a lot of fun with the puzzles, and the background music was simple but a bit haunting. The plot was nice, and I liked the ending scene very much. While the art style is nice, it makes it a bit hard to search for items and find my way out of rooms. Several times, I had to return to a scene because I had missed a key item. Otherwise, it was fun to play.

I didn't ask the barman about the girl, and now all I see is his shop. If he has important dialogue, there should be an option for "talk" or for "shop"

Who would suspect the priest? Well, me for one! A decent game but I'm mixed on the art style. While I did like the stencil drawing, it made it hard to find objects sometimes, most notably the lever to move the bookshelves.

That's terrible. As in almost all early Pastel games, the graphic style makes it impossible to navigate and to notice the objects that we can pick up or interact with. The music is okay, but then there's this loud, obnoxious spooky sound, which I guess was supposed to be unsettling, but it's just so loud that it hurts to listen. And it plays every 5 seconds or so. And most puzzles are basically "get the key, open the door" kind of stuff. Just awful.

I love their style of art. In their game 'Daymare Cat' (If you haven't already, CHECK THAT GAME OUT!) the style kinda reminds me of the UN FINISHED GAME 'Fran Bow's (DONATE PLSE, ITS COOL, PLAY DEMO!) Artwork. 5/5 for these game developers. (But Fran Bow is I think from another developer). <3

Why the heck couldn't the tram driver turn on the power to the tram himself? It's very easy, all you have to is open the power circuit and flip the switch!

Since the whole point of getting the holy water is to use it on the skull, why can't we just dip the skull into the basin with the holy water in it?

Wonderful little challenge. Simple yet entertaining, with all the ambiance one has come to expect from these Pastelgames games.
What really caught my eye was the art - super delicious, gritty and rough yet easily readable. Full marks as per usual.

Great game, I love detective stories and the artwork Pastelgames provides. This certainly deserves badges. And another thing, this one reminds me of Morbid, if you catch my drift...

I enjoyed the game, creepy, but the plot was lacking in some respects. It really doesn't make sense that the detective called the boss "a pawn." How, exactly, was he involved at all? And assuming he was, -why-? You never explained that. And actually... "the priest did it" is...well, nearly as old a concept as "the butler did it." It was also a little short. At least...I think 11 minutes of gameplay is short. Nonetheless, A for effort.

I enjoyed the story even if the game was a bit easy and the story plot a little obvious; I suppose I can't really complain though since it is still a good game.

is it just me or do other people play the game and then come back and play it again feeling like a boss because you know what to do.

My only problem is that one obnoxiously loud whistling noise. It rises up so far above the normal volume that it makes the ambient noise unbearable to keep on.
Otherwise, no real complaints.

Very good game. The storyline kept me guessing while still making sense. One thing, though: I found it rather confusing to see "myself" in some frames but not others; "I" stood by the pub at the beginning, but not when "I" am inside it. Similarly, some of the tower stairs scenes showed my face in profile, but not all. This discrepancy was distracting and often confusing.
Still, it is a good game, challenging enough to keep me interested without being frustrating. Well done.

The second lever on the control in the library is difficult to see and it took me AGES to realise that there even was a second lever!

Pastel games are some of my favorite developers with their unique art styles of games. However, this game looks really ugly. After playing for 5 mins my eyes are hurting.
