    A very short game that progressively gets more and more eerie as you go along. I really liked the creepy atmosphere and I found the historical notes to be interesting tidbits to help add something to this game. That being said the game has puzzles that at times are very obscure to figure out at first, and the game is really short. I imagine this game if played blind would only take an hour.

    barely any story and nothing lovecraftian.. just poor game mechanics and lots of walking back and forth (clicking like 10 times down a long path with nothing interesting to even look at) to find a few notes that barely give you anything to go on. even the history mode added very, very little to the whole experience. when i went to play this today i honestly thought this was a free game that i had downloaded a while…
