★★★ Good but Mac version is bad Game is pretty fun I played for a few hours, but it’s very clunky and the controls don’t seem to work properly on Mac. Then I noticed it had downloaded also on my iPad so I checked to see if it shared the same save file, it started a new save file so I thought it didn’t. Then when I opened it again
★ There’s no mouse?? Can’t use your mouse to click on half the things in the game and there’s no keybinding map or anything to tell you how to navigate. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME, going to request a refund
★ Bricked Currently unable to interact with game and stuck at text box that won’t proceed from initial opening
