Nice idea on moving around and getting clues through audio, the concept is nice but there could be more of a story using it. I managed to get the key, nice stuff.

I thought the audio touches were nice and enhancing them with the onomatopoeia particles was a really nice touch. I had a good time working my way around from the clock to the piano to the fireplace and what I assume is a window I could open and close. I kept searching and searching though, and I just couldn't find the key.
I'm glad I came back to revisit this. I couldn't get it to run on my Mac in HTML, but on my Windows laptop it ran no problem. This was a really unique take and a cool idea. Good entry.
Unfortunately I wasn't able to find the key but would love to know where it is located and to see what happens when he gets out. This could be down to my old laptop not working properly on some games, especially the 3D ones. Having the game in first person perspective was good though as it makes you feel like you are the blind man and the visual clues were done nicely but in truth I can't say that I had much of an adventure playing this game. Would like to play again when there is a bit more development to the game and a story to engage with.
Not a very engaging story, let's put it that way, but certainly a very interesting (and well-designed) take on the "you are blind" game genre (which I also made a quite similar game for, if you feel like playing it). I don't get why the clock was classified as "danger", but whatever. It was fun, good job. (If only there was more content...)
