other: Sehr gut und herausfordernde Rätsel. Dafür ist die Story langweilig. aber eine absolute Empfehlung für echte Knobelfritzen

We loved the riddles! My personal favorite was the last one. The route was really nice and covers quite a few sights! The story is sometimes a bit repetitive, we learned multiple times that Alex wanted to be an architect, but that is just a minor critique.

Thanks for the review, Mitra! Glad the riddles landed well, and great that you enjoyed the route and sights along the way. On the repetition — that's actually intentional, it's a hint pointing toward one of the hidden puzzles. But fair critique that it can feel repetitive if you're not looking for that yet! (Slight spoiler for future players who read this far :p)
