The game looks good and is fun, but a better tutorial showing controls and what to do would make it better.

Mitzie is so cute, I like the paper figurines, UI and voiceover! There are often misunderstandings between family members or friends, just like these notes. If they are connected incorrectly, they will lead to misunderstandings. Fortunately, I acted as a bridge in this game~

I have a small suggestion. I hope that a note can get positive feedback immediately after it is connected correctly, so that it will be easier for me to think.

A cozy game with beautiful art and wonderfully written, funny dialogues. The only aspect I’d suggest revisiting is the research node system: sometimes the correct answer isn’t very clear, and there’s only one possible solution. Perhaps some feedback on whether you’re on the right track with your conclusions could make this part more user-friendly. Aside from that, it’s a very cohesive game that delivers an immersive experience with a heartfelt message at the end. Congratulations on the great work!

I really enjoyed this game! I felt that the visuals, gameplay and dialogue were great, and I thought that each character having their own version of the theme was a really cool decision. Fantastic work!

Really love the care and effort put into crafting this game! Everything from the art style, the sounds, to the narrative design draws you in. The answer to the puzzle was a little obscure, but great game nonetheless!

This was a really charming and pleasant experience with a great tone. The puzzles might be a little obtuse in their solutions sometimes, but it didn't take away from the low stakes, but high excitement  family drama and chuckle worthy writing.
