Limited replay value
There is so much repetition, and the mini goals you are set run out so quickly, that this is a bit too clunky for repeated playthroughs. I love Inkle and nearly everything they do but this feels like a cross between Groundhog Day and the murder mystery section in 80 Days and isn’t really worth the money, although it’s a nice idea.
Awesome
I love this game! Ingenious and not so easy to beat, it wasn’t random and you have to put thought into it. My only wish is that it was a bit longer or there was more.
