This free title stands out for its hand-drawn art style, its strange and enchanting atmosphere, and a story that blends tenderness with a touch of darkness.

Nice Short Rusty like, good art all around with interesting environments and characters.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
7 of 207 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay is mostly serviceable with some enjoyable puzzles, however be warned that there are both annoyingly obscure solutions and very finicky puzzle elements where you can have the right solution but not be pixel perfect so not get a success trigger Watch out for the wheel puzzle.
