Neat game.
If you get bored by slow dialogs, just go to options and configure the button to skip dialogs to a mouse press instead of weirdly chosen ".".

fyi “.” is the key for skipping dialogue in all the LucasArts adventure games from the 90s, which are like the foundational works in this genre, so I would say it’s incorrect to call it “weirdly chosen”; it is in fact a pretty widespread genre convention at this point…that said, it’s understandable that someone who hasn’t played all those games wouldn’t think of “.” as their first instinct.
But for me (someone who has played tons of old adventure games) it was very intuitive, i.e. I guessed it without even looking at the controls :)
