But rest assured, you shouldn't really worry about logic in puzzles, as the game's story should push your suspension of disbelief to the very limit xD.

Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
In other respects, the game does quite well: the interface is alright, you have unlimited saves, puzzles are pretty good and just about the right difficulty (I didn't need a walkthrough at all), I didn't find any bugs at all (nor crashes), it was fun throughout, and there weren't many of the annoying things these kinds of games tend to have: backtracking was okay; you can double-click to skip the walking to change screens; you have an option to show all the hotspots, which eliminates the need to pixel-hunt (something I hate); and there were clues if you needed them (although I didn't use them, so I'm not sure how good they are).
