It's fantastic and runs great on the Deck. I kept hearing people talking about how great and unique it was, and I'm really glad I jumped on it when I did.

The game is unique and doesn't really compare directly to any other games I know of. The core game play is kinda similar to a board game, you're building a house layout by choosing between randomly chosen room tiles. In-between adding rooms, you're exploring the house in first person, and solving puzzles on the way. There's also a resource management system, where you sometimes need a keys and other resorces to progress into new rooms. At the end of the day the mansion resets and you start over.

Overall the game is an interesting mix of board games, rogue-likes, puzzles, resource management, knowledge-gated progression, permanent puzzle progression, and environmental story tellings. That's a lot of things, but they work well together and I'm just getting more and more invested in fully exploring this game.

The back story as I said is probably the thing that kept me going, not 100% there but I needed to know if my own theories were correct.

Trying to be vague as heck in the spoilers, totally get it! Don't think there's anything there that's super spoilery (I hope!) But definitely play it safe.

Fingers crossed next run, as for the item there's a
