Wonderful art, surprisingly deep story, and thoughtful game design. Also the music is really pretty. There's a few more things I still need to discover, good game.

The art in the game is amazing and I really enjoyed the soundtrack as well. The story was also nice. The puzzles could be a little harder though, most of them were pretty simple. The pace of the game felt a bit too slow at times, the caracters walk slowly and had some interaction animations that could be skippable. The cutscenes, specially from the second half of the game were too long though. Had some small bugs with interactive elements not being interactive, and had to go back and fourth till it got the target

Started playing mouse-based games since I can't use my left thumb (I usually prefer a controller). This is the first on my list and even though I've only played a little bit, it was already totally worth it. Very strong and coherent visual style, beautifully animated with a fitting score. The puzzles don't seem very hard so far, but they're a lot of fun. I certainly don't regret picking this up. (I didn't really play that many hours, I just have the game running while being distracted) EDIT: Played some more and the gameplay does get worse. About half of the puzzles become hard because it's not clear what's interactive, the game does a pretty poor job at hinting and just moving around becomes cumbersome. Keeping the thumbs-up, but you'll likely need a walkthrough and a lot of patience in a few spots.
