ENJOY!

I am begginning the game and now I am playing Lucia. Well done so far! Quite challenging! A lot of antidotes to start a game! Was it really necessary? I have not been poisoned once. I wished I would have collected more tonics or have the ability to heal. Before sleeping, I purchased a lot of tonics. I am glad I did because otherwise, I would not have been able to heal and fight more, explore the area. The gameplay is fun and the story really interesting. So far 4/5!! Thank you for this great game

I just finished the demo and was so intrigued that now I have to buy the game. It seems well written so far.

Bummer! The demo doesn't transfer.

So glad a game came out on Christmas Eve!!!

What is the general play time for this game?

Well I think I have found the first error. In the Depths A I got one of the keys but the other one is not accessible.

What exactly do you mean? The save files do not carry over to full build or the download isn't working? The save files do carry over, if the download is not working, I will let Indy know about it.

I would say 10 to 15 hours of gameplay.

Thank you for reporting this, I have correct the error and will let you know when the updated build is available.

I didn't have a problem with the save file but demo wasn't in Windows programs to delete so that might be why I had my save files. I bought before update. Like the story line. I couldn't get the key near lava either.

This game has now been updated. Merry Christmas everyone!

Thanks and a Merry Christmas to you also.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!

Another error..... In the earth village there is another chest you can't get to. It is on the left behind the soldier who says they have removed all of the rocks.

There are a couple other chests in the side lava room on right also. Overall, decent game.

Thank you Zulukat for your review. It is always helping! You don't know how much it can change everything for the other players. You often is the first to finish the game or find the bugs.
Have a merry christmas and a happy new year!
