-Great storyline.
-Mini-games challenges are perfect : not to hard, not to easy.
Hours of fun with great relaxing background music (David Gilmour style !!!).
Works perfectly with macOS Sequoia 15.2 (Intel).
Can we expect a collector’s edition ?
Don’t miss this gem !

Good game but had a hard time following and understand what to do. Felt a little random to me.
You do have to find more items than most of the games as it was a little tough keeping track of what you have, this could just be me. Most items found are used real quick.
Seemed a little short but that could be it had no bonus game which gave it a fast game feeling.

Despite several negative reviews I thought it was worth giving the trial a go, and I'm really enjoying the game so far. I had no problems with the game progressing after the 'knot' puzzle and wonder if it might be the order in which you choose to complete tasks that could be causing the problem. (Just a guess based on what's happened to me in a couple of games over time). But I like the storyline, ...Show more

For the most part, it is a decent game. What I found annoying was garlic to get rid of a snake; some items could not be picked up unless an order was placed first. Some hidden objects had to be put together, which is acceptable; however, in a search and find, the directions are vague regarding whether the item is to be placed or found.

For the most part, it is a decent game. What I found annoying was garlic to get rid of a snake; some items could not be picked up unless an order was placed first. Some hidden objects had to be put together, which is acceptable; however, in a search and find, the directions are vague regarding whether the item is to be placed or found. The interaction was also pretty ambiguous- I always treated a game like someone had never played, so I dropped two stars for those reasons. Mostly, the detective work reminded me of Murders in the Building, but without the comedy. Show less
I don't recommend this game.

Wow, the pacing of this game is so mind-numbingly slow it defies description. You'll complete one pointless task after another after another, and so on. After a short time, it became a distraction to follow the story - which is unfortunate because it's clear there was a good amount of effort spent creating it. Also, the artwork is very good and pleasing to look at. ++

On the other hand, I got so frustrated doing pointless tasks that I was relieved when the trial ended. At that point I didn't care anymore who killed whom. I cannot see myself playing this entire game if the rest of it is played at the same pace. "If walls could talk," I think they would say pass on this one. Happy New Year fishes! - Steve Show less

I wondered why this game was not featured as a Collector’s Edition game. This fact bothered me from the instant I saw this game posted. Why would Elephant produce a game without a strategy guide nor any collectibles? Why would they not produce a beta for this game to get their customers’ input on this game? To say the least, this was somewhat baffling for a developer who prides themselves on cleverly hidden collectibles. Certainly, both Elephant and BFG would like the extra income as well from the game being a collector’s edition.
The sleuth in me propelled me to investigate. I bought this game curious to see why it was never made into a Collector’s Edition game. I did enjoy the game as it progressed, although it was slow getting into the heart of the story. Initially I thought that was the reason.
The format is the same as in Elephant’s other games. Emily Smith, a podcast host, returns to investigate why a local restaurant owner was killed in one of the apartments rented out by her friend, Miranda. In the middle of the game, the pace stepped up and I was enjoying figuring out who the killer was. Then suddenly, after untangling a rope in the classic rope puzzle, it happened! It happened here in this game – it froze up! Nothing I could do would allow me to continue in this game. Now I will never know who the killer is. He may still be lurking in the apartment complex for all I know!
Does that explain the mystery of the missing Collector’s Edition designation for this game? I do not know. I only know I was left dangling by a rope puzzle unable to complete the game. Sadly, I could not even finish preparing pepper spray to spray at the evildoer. It is a good game, Elephant. I only hope you will provide a patch so all of us who are left dangling by a rope can finish the game and discover what really happened in that apartment complex.
This game may work for others who play this game. If you can end the game, please do not tell us the ending. But if this not a fluke, then hopefully we will someday find out Ted Scott’s killer, if he was killed. This game was starting to have many twists and turns and was hoping to see how the plot thickened. This has the potential to be a great game. It just needs to be completed. Hopefully, it happens!
