i respect what this game is doing a lot - it doesn't hold your hand at all, and gives you a bit of freedom when deciding what order to solve the puzzles. the setting and presentation are excellent, and most of the puzzles are fun and well-designed (i got extremely lucky with the train puzzle and didn't suffer through it the same way many others did). i don't have the benefit of nostalgia with this game, so after playing it in 2021, i mostly just feel "whelmed" with this game - it neither disappointed me nor blew me away. it was just fine. and sometimes that's all a game needs to be :)
