REVIEW FINAL SCORE

Well, Pixel Heart have treated us again to another hidden gem from nowhere! Who else expected an FMV-driven point & click adventure in 2024? You can draw on your own experiences of lockdown here, good and bad. But crucially this game is full of nostalgia from days when these kind of games were more prominent in the market but having enjoyed every minute of this game, I don’t know why they have dropped in popularity… It’s a wonderful video game and I’m already wishing for a sequel! Well, how about it?!
