Cute game with a decent puzzle.  The camera snapping sometimes made it difficult to stay in a new room though.

Really cool game, loved the visuals the camera changes were some times a bit annoying to deal with but overall really good game :D

This game is really underrated, it is extremely polished and all the elements of the game together form a truly magnificent puzzle! Really reminded me of games like Cluedo, amazing job guys!!

Really polished game, great job! The puzzle elements were awesome, the storytelling was fun, the duration was perfect for a game jam, the only thing I had issues with was the transition from camera to camera, I would be moving forward and the it would transition and I would be moving backwards and get yo-yo'd through a transition. Also tricky seeing where all the doorways were but I figured it out. Music was a ton of fun too, UI looked super cool, the assets were really well made, great job!!

Actually brilliant game, should be top 10 at least. I love the art style and the camera changes + music were very cinematic, made me feel like I was playing in a murder mystery TV show. The camera changing angles was a bit disorientating, but that's really nitpicking. Great job :))

I could not finish it the furst run! really cool puzzle game! i must try again and see if i can figure it out haha! only think i did not like was the camera and movement, it was hard sometimes to navigate since the movement changed the moment you switched camera! other than that, great work!

Fascinating! I felt pretty calm the whole time, but I liked the polished graphics. The camera and perspective tricks were cool even though they made the gameplay a little clunky at times. Well done, truly an innovative take on the theme.

Fantastic game with great polish. The notebook was not only useful but wonderfully integrated. The models were also quite charming and well made.

My only complaint is that the camera angles in the dungeon and certain parts of the lab made it difficult to move around. The shifting of the camera made my character go back and forth between zones until I moved slowly enough to get them out of the loop.

Loved! everything was superb

Your game is very well made. The controls and notebook were really intuitive to use. The castle is interesting to explore and looks great. My only complaints are the audio bugging out when you first load in and the movement between areas being glitchy sometimes.

i love the solid and established aesthetic your game has! i also adore the notebook assets so much.. you can tell the amount of thought that went into each detail, and though i had some camera issues, i really enjoyed the gameplay! really fun and well polished, especially within the week timeframe!

This is probably one of the best when it comes to the quality and attention to detail. The camera changes were struggling a bit, but besides that, amazing work!

I really liked the setting, the camera was as little disorienting though. Overall very solid! :)

Whoa really nice game. Simple puzzle though execution is superb. Art and music is high level. The camera work though giving a lot of vibe was giving me some issues in navigation making transition in few places a bit hard but overall this one is great and quite polished game. Great job

Fun interactions/dialogues. Integrated the assets very well. It's nice to explore the castle and piece the events together. Maybe a few more hidden clues could have been more rewarding but that is very very picky. The only kind of flaws I can think of are, that the movement when you switch from screen to screen can be a bit jarring, as you change the orientation/direction of the player. I had a few cases, where the screen was flickering, because I kept switching screens. Also there was a bug when I was arranging the keywords, where the Barbarian field just disappeared. So I couldn't solve it in the end. But still great game :) I feel like the theme is very loosely connected though.
