Loved the atmosphere of the game, the journey and cryptic language. If lovecraft designed the titantic, this is what is would be like. Fantastic game.
It did take me a while to successfully click on the photos, it would have been nice to have a bit more feedback as to what you can interact with. other than that, great stuff.
Thanks for playing and your time spent giving us feedback :)
We did plan to add more communication to the player on what was interactable but ran out of time to do so. The feature is being implemented and should be available in the next build with possibly more content.
Solved the city puzzle, green light lit up, door did not open. Can't seem to find anything else to interact with.
Hello KristyBanalia,
Little hint. All puzzles in the game have an accompanying riddle nearby to the puzzle itself. Hope this helps.
