The storyline has been great so far. It's very engaging with a funny premise, not to mention the best part of this game... it has various modes of problem solving puzzles which keeps me immersed into the game for longer then I expect. If you are a fellow gamer that likes to problem solve and various solve puzzles, this game does not fail to execute! The game is pretty intuitive to play too! great game design!

This is a really well done sweet game. Definitely quirky for the beards and talking dog in a suit, but super charming with a comforting kind of narrative. Good music, design, nice blend of exploring/puzzles, and the right amount of challenge with the ability to get past if you get stuck on anything. Also, as a German Shepherd owner, love seeing the representation here.

The music is top notch and really helps get you into the gameplay. I like the mini puzzles that are in the game as they add a dimension to it. There are a good variety of places to explore which I like as well as boss fights and mini games(which i mentioned before). I am about 5 hours into the game and still trying to learn more about the mystery. I will definitely update my review once finished with the game with my overall experience. From what I have seen and played, its definitely enjoyable!

I have been playing this game for the last 2 days and just completed it, plus all the side quests and every achievement.
The Good
----------
Overall - It is a very charming game. Lots to do, good amount of play time for the money and lots of variety in terms of mini games, quests and areas to discover. Also it is pretty funny in places (I laughed a few times), has many unique characters and lots of little cute pop culture references and quirky aspects - like the changing pictures each day based on time travel movies and passing references to TV shows like The Wire
Main Story - The main story took me about 4-5 hours to complete, and the game kind of guides you through it so it is not extremely difficult. I liked this aspect because otherwise I might get lost walking around all the time, There is also a full walkthrough guide posted in the community for the game page for if you get stuck. I did not use it for the main story but I did for 2-3 of the side quests. The story evolves in quite a fun an unexpected direction involving time travel, espionage and quantum physics.
Side Quests - The side quests are varied and there are about 30 of them. You have to do about half to complete the game, some are easy some are hard. All are different and match the characters personality who gives them to you.
Battles - The battle system is more like a puzzle mode on a small grid where you use weapons is certain order to kill enemies. At first I was unsure but after doing 1-2 of them and getting used to it I did really enjoy them.
Graphics - Reminds me of SNES type retro but with a lot of detail, definitely very cohesive and adds to the atmosphere and ambience.
Sound - One of my favorite things, the sound really good. Fits the game and has lots of variety and ambience.
The Bad
---------
Overall - overall there is not too much bad to say, I really liked this game. It is not an action game but it has all the elements you would expect of a casual RPG, and done well. If anything bad could be said overall it is just to improve the little aspects listed below to give an overall polish to the whole game.
Main Story - The main story is quite linear, it could perhaps have 2 endings, but then that would be a different game.
Side Quests - Some side quests are not clear what to do and I had to turn to the guide for 2-3 of them in order to complete every one. I didn't personally mind this, but some might find it too hard and perhaps there could be a couple more clues for the harder side quests from the dog sidekick or in from other NPCs. I emailed the developer about this and a couple of small bugs, and he said he is going to make some of the side quests clearer and improve the continuity, so by the time you read this it might be a non-issue. He also fixed the small bugs very quickly and pushed a patch within 1 day, so that was encouraging.
Battles - A couple of them were quite hard. Again, I turned to the guide. A couple were also insanely easy. I guess it is good to have a variety of levels but 2 of them were REALLY hard, at least for me. The guide gave me the answer I needed to get past them though.
Graphics - A couple of the animation are a little hokey, but aside from that I have no qualms with the art.
Sound - Nothing bad to say.
Summary
----------
I loved this game, if you like games like **** Valley and story RPGs with comedy this is one of the best you will find.
