I think I would have personally given this game the number 1 spot for fall vibes, simply because it managed to inspire so much imagination in me solely through storytelling and simple background screenshots. I loved the whole ambiance and the idea of a commite of haunting! Having to convince ghosts to help you is brilliant and leads to a cool ghost-chase that isn't necessarily scary (which I like) :) However (and I might just be a bit too dumb), I was unable to solve the initial puzzles that appeared. I wasn't quite sure where to look or what hints to use. Maybe I missed a bit? I'd love to play it again if you could give me some pointers. Anyway, for now I'll just say good job on this really cool entry. It obviously took a lot of work, and that shows. Thanks so much for participating in the jam!
Thank you very much for playing and for hosting! You are def not too dumb - I kinda ran out of time to really incorporate the hints to the puzzles better and that's the biggest thing I think is missing in making it a smooth experience overall. Some puzzle solutions also require going down certain text paths that might not seem required or seem circular at first. It's all a bit messy, haha. Here are some hints below!
- For Chester - go inside the house and see what kind of toys he plays with/what his favorite sport is
- For Dolly - check inside the church to see what verse the Bible is open at
- For Houndstooth - the animal symbols represent the words you find, ordered largest to smallest
Hope that helps and again thanks so much for the kind words!!
Thanks, I´ll give it another go if I get the chance! :)
one of the best games I've played from this jam! each story was interesting and had me wanting more. I also really enjoyed the puzzles you incorporated. Great work!
Thank you so so much!
This was really fun and full of the fall spirit! The story of each ghost seemed to address a different element of what fall feels like.
Thank you very much!
The idea was so unique! I loved the puzzles and atmosphere, and I thought the music fit the different scenarios well!
Thank you! Much appreciated!!
