Oh my... what an amazing and unique piece of art. The rather short game itself is pleasantly entertaining and the puzzles are all quite solvable without any frustrating moments. But in my eyes, the real masterpiece is the art behind the game. Everything you can see on the screen has been handcrafted using paper, cardboard, motors and miniature lights. The entire city was made as one large, connected model. The gameplay was captured with cameras using stop-motion technology and great use of depth of field. All together it took three years to create the game. I am so very impressed and recommend watching the corresponding documentary on YT after playing the game.

Absolutely stunning. The art and design of the game is top-tier and a joy to look at. Some of the puzzles are quite simplistic and straight-forward but it is a joy to play and is beautiful to look at.

The game is a handcrafted piece of art. Has a couple of bugs here and there, but nothing major. There are roughly 20 to 30 puzzles, of which about 4 or 5 are simply nonsensical--which is a low enough percentage. Story is a tad poor, but there was no real need for a complex story, since the game visuals were very compelling and immersive. The ending left me wanting, true. And one other thing I'll never understand is the need to include such a massive handbook in the inventory that was not even used nor referenced at all. Still, highly recommendable.

I loved this game. I found it hit a nice balance with puzzles that were not overly hard or simple. A great variety of puzzles most of them needing logic and in several parts to solve. There is a hint manual if you get really stuck and I had to use about 4 times, but even that is a puzzle. To find the right page in the manual, the 'contents' page has a riddle you need to find the page number with the hint. Lots of creativity to every aspect of the game. Beautiful setting. The set was done with actual models that were filmed. There is a story line though out that gives some plot, hints, and atmosphere and humour to the game. Some mild meta commentary on neighbours, community, and industrialization, but all done in a fun way.

The visuals and sound are all so pleasant, and solving the puzzles is fun and satisfying. However, there were times that I couldn't for the life of me figure out what page of the handbook to go to, and in those cases, I couldn't solve the puzzles without a walkthrough online. With the handbook, the puzzles are a good mix of hard and fun and doable.
