Loved this small game - the puzzles were challenging, the story was instresting and kept me intrigued and the art style was really cute I would recommend!

Great puzzles! Higher difficulty than other simpler games makes it a fun challenge.

Great first outing. Some unique puzzles and fun environments. The art was delightful. Not too hard but you still had to think a bit. The story was a bit nebulous for me (no pun intended) and I solved a couple of puzzles without knowing how, but good fun all the same.
