So to start off. I found out about this game because the developers reached out to me and asked if I could make a video on it and give some feedback. I gladly accepted as the game looked fairly interesting and decently made, and I think it's fair to say I was pleasantly surprised.

First off, let's talk about the story. We play as David Adams, who is searching for his sister Emma, who has gone missing while working on a story for a newspaper. David enters the mansion (which is haunted) and the scares and puzzle solving ensue. Now I have to say, I was very surprised with how much story there was. Not only do we get a lot of context when starting the game, but there are also notes and newspapers all over the place to further expand on the story of the mansion and the entity haunting it.

Now let's talk about the mechanics and puzzles. Both are very well made. The mechanics are simple and easy to use, (although I kept forgetting that I had to equip items lol) and the puzzles are great because every item you can pick up, and almost everything you can interact with is part of a puzzle. There are also hints in almost every room if you get stuck.

There's not really a lot to say about the scares in the game aside from they are well spaced out as you solve puzzles and unlock more of the mansion. Some are subtle, some aren't, and there's a couple jump scares. I think that all the scares were well executed and are a good way to emphasise us going "down the rabbit hole" as it were.

Overall I think this game is fantastic, and very well made. Especially for Gamenasticas first game and I would highly recommend giving it a go.
