A solid little brainteaser, good for killing time on break.

Thank you for a review. It's a pity there were problems due to language barrier.
English is not my native language so I tried to make the game more accessible even if the player has limited knowledge of it.
I've used proper i18n for dates. All clues are marked in blue and are either numbers (and arithmetic expressions) or parts of dates like weekdays/months which are properly translated (so is the calendar). Chinese zodiac signs are supposed to be in Chinese - it's a part of the puzzle.
Most of the text in a newspaper is just a filler to make it look like a normal newspaper.
P.S. I don't know French and none of my friends know it... it's just the way it is.
I can translate this game into Russian or Ukrainian (but it's kinda pointless on this site), with some effort from my friends it could be Spanish or German at best.
In theory with a lot of effort I can try to translate it into very basic Japanese.
P.P.S. The problem lies not in a translation itself - text can be Google translated, but there must be a person responsible for QA in case machine translation is utter garbage.
P.P.P.S. I strongly believe that every Canadian knows both English and French :)
Not a bad game. I noticed a couple of bugs (no path number circled, broken interactive date), which make winning the game impossible. I do appreciate the word find and the sudoku puzzles - made playing less repetitive, though the sudoku could be done without much effort as it eliminates impossible options.

Thank you for a thorough bug report.
I've updated the game and hopefully these bugs are now fixed.
