I'm a bit on the fence on this game. While it wasn't a particularly bad game, I didn't find myself liking it either. I felt compelled to finish it quickly, thinking "Hopefully, we're near the end!" That's bad news to me!

PROS:
Pretty looking and creative HO scenes (most), and lovely unique puzzles. Like the death masks, and darts and such. The diary was pretty lovely too.

CONS:
It's confusing. It's hard to navigate where to go or what to do or if there's anything to check out. There's no map, and often times you need to backtrack to locations you've already been to, only to find out there's a new item that magically appears in that place. It can get frustrating.

I often found myself forgetting which item went to which puzzle. A lot of instructions for some puzzles were written so vaguely, it took some guess work to figure out what you're supposed to do.

The story was just...weak. It had an interesting premise and then it built into something lacking of logic that I just...Mmm...that ending.

Looking at other reviews, it definitely is a pretty mixed bag. I'd only recommend it because it does have its nice moments and does offer some gameplay that deserves attention.
