I enjoyed Asher and proceeded to this game but got stuck. In the library, I found the key, but using it on the drawer gets me nowhere - it's still stuck and won't move more than an inch. Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong? (I'm playing the Windows version.) I've tried all actions available in the room, and I can't leave it or use the phone.

Hello! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed Asher.
There are a few things Tetrine wants to do before she will try the drawer again. When you first opened the drawer, Tetrine found the newspaper. If you haven't read it, you will need to go to the card catalog (Tetrine archived it as something important) and read some of the articles. The ones that are important to the story will probably stand out to you.
Thank you! That did the job. I reached what looks like the end - for now. It says more chapters are coming in Spring 2024, and I'll definitely stay tuned for them. From what I see, that's going to be an even more amazing adventure than Asher!
Can you tell me how many chapters it is going to have? And how many endings?
Yay, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! :)
There will be about 6-8 episodes (each having about three chapters each) or about 45 minutes of content each (not including puzzles, just story content). About six endings are set in stone, but there may be more. The next couple of episodes require me to make a lot of the background art that will be used in the latter parts of the game, so these episodes will take longer than the rest of the episodes to release.
