What’s in the box Mr. Freeman? WHAT’S IN THE BOX?
Sorry wanted to stream it but life got in the way.
Notes while playing: Meme of “it fits in the square hole”
Cute cat paw cursor marks when you click. What’s up with random cat games this time around?
Speaking of cat pawing at stuff, the game would work well on a tablet (or smartphone).
Man I did NOT see the greyed out thing on the code sheet for a solid two minutes and instead trying to figure out the rules based on my first guess, which had many possibilities and ambiguity.
No delete button on the codepad and I misclicked.
Poor bomb I give it a virtual hug.
Well-scoped, solid polish. Fun minigames. Not sure how well it fits the theme overall. Game feels designed for kids, are you a parent?
Thanks for the review. Great points!
Not a parent, but I wanted to make a small, simple, silly game, so I did :)
I HATE EVIL MASTERMIND!!! Cool graphics!
Awesome game and puzzle design. Got so excited when I understood the numpad puzzle.
Me and my homies hate the bomb. Got it on my first try, and the bomb does me like that! The code puzzle was well done and took me the longest, and the constant reminders that the time was ticking down was a nice touch. The overall game was really nice, but the holes accepted any shape (edit: I thought it was a bug, but it was a reference?) . Aside from this not fitting the theme as well, the game was really nice, and I enjoyed it.
Really enjoyed this puzzle game. The ramp up was unexpected but fun, once I started to understand what to do. Had to restart twice before I understood the code puzzle.
Lovely audio choices and tunes too. Well done :)
That Veil Mastermind guy seems very familiar. I must have seen him somewhere before...
Very fun collection of mini-games. The presentation kinda reminds me of the video game "Muppet Treasure Island", and similar games from ages ago which I played as a kid (thanks for making me nostalgic out of the blue, I guess?)
I feel like the difficulty ramp got quite steep at one point, but it's a fun and engaging experience non the less!
Cool game with a nice concept, the overall feel makes a good impression. I didn't get past the password puzzle, I guess I didn't play enough of the math games that you see in social media. I liked that you could drop any shape in the middle in the shape match game, I guess you did put a lot of references in there. Nice!
Interesting puzzle game! I got passed the number puzzle but only by guess and check with the green lights, I couldn't really decipher the note. I also don't see how it fits the theme... Still fun though.
Same as plexsoup, as soon as I got to the number pad I couldn't solve it, tried twice and I guess just by randomly choosing numbers figured out second and forth number, but the restart to the beginning felt super discouraging. I took a screen shot of that puzzle, maybe I'll figure it out at some point lol
*Edit! Because I can't accept defeat, I randomly guessed until I got the number! the rest of the challenges seemed good! nothing unfair, really wondering what that one password was. Overall super fun idea! love little minigames and the narrative with the bombs. Kind of a sad ending though!
I'm embarrassed to say I got stumped as soon as the puzzles got more difficult.
