❤ Puzzle Gameplay

The core gameplay loop challenges players to solve turn-based tactical puzzles. In each level, you must navigate through obstacles, clear enemies, and reach the end without taking any damage. Failing to complete the puzzle perfectly will reset the level, forcing you to rethink your strategy. These intricate puzzles demand careful planning and execution, rewarding players who can think critically and adapt to the challenges presented.

❤ Narrative Exploration

Interspersed throughout the puzzle gameplay are opportunities to explore the game's environment. You can interact with various objects and mementos within the room, triggering memories and insights into the development team's relationships and the reasons behind the project's dissolution. This passive storytelling approach allows you to uncover the narrative at your own pace, creating a more immersive and reflective experience.

❤ Balancing Gameplay and Narrative

Reviewers praise the developer's ability to strike a well-tuned balance between the puzzle gameplay and the narrative exploration. Neither element dominates the experience, ensuring that you can engage with both the challenging puzzles and the thought-provoking narrative. This seamless integration creates a cohesive and engaging overall experience.

❤ Emotional Resonance

Many reviewers highlight the emotional impact of the game's narrative, noting that it was able to elicit a range of feelings, from nostalgia to melancholy. The exploration of the dissolution of a close-knit development team and the lingering memories of their "golden days" has resonated with players, leading to a meaningful and memorable experience.
