I previously said a 4/5 for artwork and ambient of the sounds... but I changed my mind to 3/5 because the puzzles were 90% guessing and clicking putting stuff together. No logic... That should be the main part of a "puzzle, escape game".....

I love the ambient sounds a lot! Gives it a creepy feel. Also really like the style of the art work. Wish it was longer and was able to enlarge the game (control + mouse wheel scroll). I play on a really hi res so it was tiny. Overall pretty good. 4/5

honestly it only took two tries and i got all but the exit code first time no hints needed just think like a mad man and also dont use logic in an obviously illogical game

Um, I may sound stupid, but I struggled with the part about taking the pills. Turns out using the pills on the water doesn't work, you have to open the pills and use water on them. + if you got stuck too.

I have this strange block, but I have no idea how to make it match any patterns. I keep clicking but it just stays white all over :( Help

Seems like the only way to figure out some of the puzzles is either through luck or by being the guy who made the game.

Wow, a point and click game that is not based in logic. Why am I trying to make a tin man? So I can put a photo next to it and get the can's contents. Of course. How else would you open a can? Or rip open a bear that already has a big hole in it? Or light up a drawer that is already located directly under a lamp? Seriously, for every problem you encounter in this game, think of the LEAST logical way to solve that problem. Anyone who claims they solved this without hints either created the game, is lying, or is just the right amount of insane.

A really beautiful game. It creates an excellent atmosphere. However, there were a few flaws in it. First: the log. In my opinion it is a bad idea to give the player a list of all messages without context. Just display the text again when an object is examined. Secondly: the tin man. Why does it have to be exactly that order? Does the ball somehow prevent me from putting the spoons under it afterwards? Thirdly: puzzles that require you to click something repeatedly. Give the player some feedback that that's what he's supposed to do.
Besides that a really great game. I love that you can actually finish it in 20 seconds! 4/5

I really liked the game, but I would have prefered a more "mindf***ing" end... But combining a kind of "mental illness theme" with the wizard of oz is deeply atmospherical. I also enjoied, that the restart after an overdose of morphid was very well implented in the story, so it didn't frustrate me to start all over again at all.
Thank You! to Sashka and MutantSparrow for that (no less than 5 Stars deserving) Point and Click game!

ARRRGHHHHH
You spend 2 hours burning your brain on the clues until you find out what to do then you take the pills, ooohhh a new room! then you fall asleep and start from beggining... FRUSTRATING! not trying to end it again, ill just wait for someone posting a gameplay video so i can see the ending... ¬¬" Give you 3/5 for that.

Cant get the brick out of the Box...have used the same pattern as the notiz-sheets on the board, but nothing happens. Help! :(

I really hate these kinds of games, and this game just proves why. "Game" makers who make these kinds of games think that obscurity is the same as mystery, which it's not. Parts of this game have no hints as to how to continue on, and there's no real story. I liked how you used the wizard of oz story, but there was no real reason or explanation to do anything.
Nice graphics/feel/music though. Next time make a real game please.

A VERY challenging game. The clues were all there..but it really does not take instant logic to always find them out. Good game, a lot of puzzling puzzles! (P.S. Thank goodness for walkthroughs).

*SPOILER* For those still struggling, don't forget to read aDayforNights post and remember to put the lit scarecrow in the drawer. After that, exchange the Letters HOME IS OUT THERE for the numbers (0=O, 3=E, etc). If you really want to know the combination, you can e-mail me, but that is how you do it.

After messing up (with the knife) the scare crow and turning on the lighter i cant use it on the scarecrow, what gives?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Cool game, weird atmosphere. Is it just me, or do the notes you find make more sense if you read them in reverse order?
Bit unfair punishing a mistake by sending you right back to the start though. (Though once you know the exit code you can use it as soon as you take the pills, without having to go through all the steps again). I found the end a bit disappointing, but still, not a bad game.

@danihorawr: Tin man needs a body, perhaps a can might suffice, if only we could get rid of the sticky label. A round head. 2 arms and 2 legs from an item that wouldn't be used for its actual purpose. And finally a hat. Don't forget to make sure everything is secure.

Somewhere over the rainbow way up high (brush up on the Wizard of Oz).
Tin man lacks a heart (until he met with Dorothy which makes him kind and sympathetic), the Lion lacks a courageous heart, while the scarecrow lacks a brain.
Follow the golden brick road to gain the powerful ruby shoes.

Help please.. I'm really stuck on the safe behind the portrait and none of the clues have helped though they have helped on everything else. except the box.. stuck on that too... :/

In the beginning, it says that there´s something carved into the wood. It does NOT mean the snowglobe, it means that there´s something carved into the DRAWER.
Pls Dev - you should make this a little clearer to us ;-)

ATTENTION DEVELOPER: I'm not sure if this happening to anyone else, but the lighter overlaps with the spoons and the heart overlaps with the funnel.

SPOILER______ Put canteen on stove to boil put oil can on steam. zoom in on oil can remove label, add bent spoons, marbel, funnel, use screws and sd.Then place the picture next to tin man. put heart on lion to get lighter. with the scarecrow, use knife on his head then catch his head on fire :). use key from scarecrow get box, match tiles up from bathroom and post it board. Put scarecrow in drawer to get a code. on the back of the picture it states Home, back of the label states is out, 5 misc papers states there, use code from drawer with HOME IS OUT THERE to unlock safe. place cord on tv. = shoe. use brick on tv to get shoes. Answer phone she tells you to pop pills again so thats what we will do. First look at shoes and note the size. At this point u should have 15 journal pages. The last page tells you how much meds to take. take medicine with cup of water and put in code (from shoes) on the new door.. and out_______SPOILER_______WALKTHROUGH________

If you are having trouble with the combination, just let me say that just like home is out there, the truth is out there as well.

True story: I was so excited that this is a point and click game that I started clicking around on the main page thinking it was the game already. Would be cool if the developer added some achievement or something for finding something cool on the main page by clicking around.

I played until I found a snowglobe that said, "something is carved in the wood. I need some light." I put the globe under 5 different lamps, and oddly none of them provided enough light for me to read what was carved. This is another one of those escape games where you have to pixel hunt because it isn't based on logic. Good graphics, but that doesn't help the playability at all. 1/5

Vstriker,
Combination- a sentence
Brick-post it notes u need to get into cabinet first
key- from straw man, (first get tin-mans heart) to do that "Dorthy keeps a heart close"

Where do I get a brick?!? A key for the desk?!? A combination for the lock?!?
If I don't find it out quickly I'm gonna become as retarded as the guy on the game!
