Oct. 2024

This game was good for what it is. Nothing to write home about but a good way to spend an hour. The graphics hurt my eyes a little.

Pro An interesting puzzler with a horror aspect. Visuals were pretty. Puzzles not overly difficult. Con I was just starting to get invested in the game when it ended and left feeling unsatisfied... so a little thin & confusing on the story.

Sept. 2024

I'm not sure where this lands in David's timeline. It has it's rough edges like you would expect from a solo hobby dev. It was released in 2015 after all. But it's a compelling little story. I appreciated the multiple options for problem solving, although I did get caught in a couple spots and had to resort to cheeky text walk through. Over all It's well worth the couple of dollars to experience if you're in the mood for a light horror/puzzle game. Story spoilers as I understood the game: My takeaway? The daughter needs to go therapy, see a psych probably get some meds and stay with her grandparents for a while. The mother needs to go to rehab see a psych, get some family counselling, and the family as a whole should probably stay away from pets.

Vintage Szymanski I think I might like The Silven Moon a touch more as I think it has a bit more complexity to it. But this is a fantastic meditative piece on family, overcoming internal demons, and also dealing with authority. Very good experience.

June 2024

While I love the story games made by this creator, this game's game play is my least favorite. The elements used for various puzzles seem arbitrary and confusing. With that being said, this game is cheap and definitely worth playing.
