What players think
The recurring themes across 94 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The plot is interesting, adventurous and comical, there are no real puzzles but we have to collect objects and understand how to use them in the right way, some will have to be assembled together.
Although it is not a recent product, it is fun to play, the graphics are well done in a cartoon style and are not stylized but full of details.
The graphics are great (they do resemble the classics like "The Curse of Monkey Island", but it is definitely not a clone we see here!), the settings are unique (you can name quite a few of "Steampunk" adventure games - and this one has a Slavic / Eastern European vibe in it that I have never seen anywhere else!), the puzzles are good enough to be neither too easy nor too hard - and not repetitive or monotonous either (we are talking about adventure game puzzles of course, like Inventory- and dialogue-based, not about pure Myst-like puzzles)!

All of this said, despite the glitches, simplicity, and other issues, the game is actually pretty fun if you enjoy point-and-click gameplay.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
No themes split opinion in this sample.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
