Neat game! I'm not really into horror games but this wasn't too scary and the card combination mechanics were neat. I also liked how I could use a hint if I wasn't sure exactly which cards to combine. Also, rot13: V xarj vg jnf n onq vqrn fb gunaxf sbe yrggvat zr xrrc cynlvat nsgre trggvat gur qrngu pneq!

Nice game. Surprising that it seems like the system will be too simple at first, but then it serves as its own tutorial as well as expanding to provide enough gameplay friction. Great minimalist game design idea!

Really intriguing and beautifully crafted! I would love to play more.

Nice one! As others have said, the vibe is great. The story and the way it developed was gripping and focused enough that I wanted to continue and discover the end. Also thank you for letting me continue after I killed myself!

Congrats on the submission!

This game is awesome! Really nice concept for some mystery gameplay. I love the story, and the visuals were solid as well! I'd be super curious to see what this would look like as a longer experience!

Short, provocative mystery. Enjoyable game play mechanics and I appreciated the reference "encyclopedia" (and the ability to double click the cards to get there, too!) The cards could use some proofreading but had no issues with gameplay. Cosmic horrors indeed!
