This was a pretty fun little game and I look forward to more parts of this game in the future.


By Wiggy on 8 September 2019

Another beautiful game from one of my favourite developers. The artwork, animations and coding are superb, the storyline
interesting, and the prospect of a whole series says "Bring it on!!!" I found the puzzles a little on the "too easy" side in this instance, but that's probably because of the subject matter. Either Nessie exists or not, and I am, unfortunately,not a conspiracy theorist. However, this is an amusing and interesting game and I think you'll enjoy it. I did.
