Such a good game with a brilliant ending.
I spent about half an hour just trying to figure out the last riddle but it was worth it.

Whoo! I'm glad to hear that you liked playing my game!
Thank you ;)
This game is one of the best games I have ever played. I love the difficulty of it and the music, which really added to the creepy atmosphere, I really like the text as well!
LucidShadowDreamer responds:
Thanks a lot!
I'm very happy to hear that you liked both the music, the atmosphere, and the entire game!
When I discovered the final answer, chills went down my spine. That was creepy. Stop that.
LucidShadowDreamer responds:
I'm glad to hear that the ending pleased you! It was the basis for the making of the game, pretty much :)
Thanks for playing! :D
I had seen your sequel and saw that you recommended to play this game first, so I did. The game was astounding and I can't wait to play your sequel. The only thing that was a bit hard was that I had gotten the first real puzzle right, but I didn't think of making it one word, so I was stumped for quite a while. Otherwise, I loved every single word play used in this game. It was very clever. Additionally, I love that the letters alluded to the background story. Before you receive all the letters, the letters spell out "Nude Boy," and I thought it was so clever. This game makes you feel smart once you solve puzzles, and all the puzzles make sense. I hope the sequel is just as good =D
LucidShadowDreamer responds:
Thanks for the super encouraging review! Now I really hope that the sequel isn't a disappointment :S
A fair warning. I've been told that the sequel is both more difficult, and slightly better than this one (by my testers). You can find out how true that turns out to be, yourself ^ ^
Initially, I thought about using separate words for the first puzzle, but upon googling it, every result showed them written together. I think that is because it's an actual official word (as it's an old profession, after all),
Oh yeah, I thought about that one for a while. Nice that you noticed the connection! Makes me happy to see you really paied attention to the story :D!
Since it's a fairly challenging game, and you managed to beat it, I think it's pretty fair to say that the game doesn't only make you feel smart, but actually shows you just may be ;)
Holy shit, this was amazing.
The secret ending is way more frightening than the original, I'm still surprised I actually got it.
This game is a masterpiece!
One of the best games I've ever played on this sight.
LucidShadowDreamer responds:
I'm very glad you liked the game. The secret ending is there as a bonus for people who got really into the game, kind of hinting at the sequel :)
So I'm glad you played that one as well!
Thank you for your thoughts ^____^
