Very fun, indeed. Puzzles can be solved by pure chance. And it's ok, for most of the puzzles are not really connected to the story or demand you do some math (when you don't want to, maybe). But the whole adventure is designed and written with a smile, alas ends fast.

Very cute. A good feature would be a loss if the puzzle was solved incorrectly, because now it's enough to click all the options to pass.

I liked the characters. James Pond was my favorite.  The rough style fits with the comedic style of the plot. Great job!

Loved the puns and all the puzzles, and the art style is so cute!

Charming, cute and fun! I love ducks!

Charming :) It was more challenging than the art style made it look! The puzzles were fun to try, I got few wrong on my first guess though! I think there were two correct answers on the last one ;)

Wasn't expecting anything along the lines of Professor Layton/Puzzle Agent. I was wondering if this is something you can play with little ones. But for the little ones, the end is perhaps a bit too action-packed (you know what I mean). When it comes down to some of the riddles, they'll probably need mum or dad's help anyway (or guess, I guess). :)


At the last puzzle, I also had a different answer than the one intended. It doesn't look wrong to me either.

The graphics are super cute. The characters too. Great style. I love the Layton vibe and wouldn't mind seeing more of it. :)

Great game! I like the humor and the riddles are hard enough. I really like the art style too!

I feel it miss some sound effects that would help to immerse in the game. A little note on the last riddle, maybe I didn't understend correctly, but I belive that two answers are equally valid.

Overall is an enjoyable experience!
