Nice exploring game. Really fitted the theme and "missions" really got you exploring the land.

I had the exact same idea with the map that everything appears after going to the spots.. but I failed and activated every piece of the map while building the game :D But it's funny that someone else had the same idea

Brutal explorerNice sense of adventure, complimented by the choice of music.
Was slightly confused at first when I couldn't interact with certain characters when they had the question mark icon, but got the hang of it when I realised I needed to complete some certain preconditions first or check my inventory.
Really charming entry :)

No Life DetectedI think I went the wrong way to start, a found lot of people/things with question marks above them that I couldn't immediately interact with. I eventually found my way back to the start and went the other way which put me on a better path.
I'd maybe consider turning down the footstep sound or mixing it up a bit with other similar sounds. It started to bug me a bit while walking around (probably did more walking than most because of my wrong turn at the start), though I did chuckle myself when I just started pretending my little dude was a helicopter that was afraid of going over water and tall trees.

Finding BeautyNeat, relaxing little game. I liked wandering around and discovering landmarks (took me a while before I realised the clicky-noise was me discovering a new landmark haha). Also, I enjoyed getting a new note about a landmark you know you've been to and having to retrace how you got there again.
The only thing that slighly confused me was that NPC's have question marks above them even when you're not supposed to interact with them yet.
You built an entire world? Alright :D
The movement felt a bit weird and I could not figure out what to do really. Like the look of the map and the scale of the game though.

Mob Battle: Night of the TowersI had a good time running around, the map wasn't too big that points of interest were too far apart, however I was confused when I ran into people with question marks above their head but they wouldn't actually give me a quest. I like the use of the map asset and think it was really helpful.
