Lots of options, it was interesting
I like the story progression. With a little bit of sound or imagery this could be really cool!
Very interesting take on the theme! Yes, I tried to run away from the maze, but there was no escape. :(
The furthest I got in the game was the part where it described the four spectral figures in front me. I couldn't scroll down when I got to that part, so that's where I stopped playing.
Many paths, many ways to die ! I think MidJourney or other AI to generate images could have been a great addition.
Had fun, nice setting, just lacks some music.
Enjoyed it. If you do more like it, adding some music/sound might beef it up further.
Nice story and the writing was goo. The choices were abundant. Nice job!
I liked the story, the writing was very visual and well done, especially for a game jam. I found the riddles were somewhat spoiled by the link colors changing based on having visited the "correct answer" page before.
Creative story and gamedevelopment execution, enjoyed it. Maybe the visuals could be a bit more coherent. Nice entry, GG! (oh, and some music could intensify the feeling)
Solid! I confess I tried to immediately flee the maze! :)
