A game filled with mystery and many fun puzzles to solve, and once I got into it I couldn't stop playing! Very very fun, a bit of a metroidbrainia, and I really enjoyed the writing and story! It felt like the perfect length for this kind of game too.
The only downside I would point is that the font used can get hard to read, especially on some resolutions, but it didn't affect me too much.

Detective Instinct: Farewell, My Beloved is a lovely game about a mysterious woman's disappearance on a train... I heard of the game for its old-school look and after a few minutes of playing, I was hooked by the writing and the intrigue, completely immersed in the story. The art also never disappoints, with great animations making all the characters so expressive and unique, and I loved the old game feel on every aspect, even the UI, the backgrounds, the titles. After playing the entire story, without spoiling anything, it was fascinating and the setting very interesting! The OST was amazing as well, with great tracks that set the mood for the scene. All in all, I heavily recommend this game, especially as a mystery fan!

A great and beautiful game with many mysteries to unfold. The game gives you an end goal but you only have to play for a couple of hours to understand that there's much more to discover! There's a very well-crafted world around the game, and it's always great when you get to piece little things together to understand something new. It can be frustrating sometimes so it's definitely not a game for everyone, but as someone who loves puzzles and mysteries and has a lot of patience I'm in love

My mouth...
Very atmospheric and immersive narrative game, pretty short but it still leaves a great impact after playing!
It easily makes you want to uncover the mysteries around you, and the graphics and sound design wrap it all up to make a dark, intense but beautiful experience. Absolutely recommend!

Absolutely amazing art, every scenery and landscape is beautiful! Gameplay-wise it's a very fun game, with a lot of variety and different ways to handle a battle, and the story is very catching, with characters you easily get attached to. Overall I really love Arco, a beautiful game with a good, moving story in a very interesting setting!

I usually hate platformers because I struggle so much, my coordination isn't the best and I tend to panic easily and make more mistakes... But I love puzzle games, and Animal Well offers so many great puzzles and exploration that I don't mind doing the platform parts over and over again. Trying to figure out how to do things with the tools at my disposal was incredibly fun and satisfying! And it's also incredibly beautiful. Animal Well? I sure hope so...

A very refreshing management game that includes narration segments that blend in really well with the gameplay. I haven't seen everything just yet but so far the story is super interesting and intriguing. The characters and the world they live in, the conversations, the different documents you can read all make for a great immersive experience, and I love it!

Early Access Review
This is the kind of game you could either play to beat some challenges and highscores, or when you just want to relax after a long day. The calming atmosphere really makes it satisfying to play, even when you keep restarting that level to win. The minimalistic look and the soothing music combine and let you in a very peaceful mood.

Like it's been said before, SinaRun is easy to play, hard to master.
I am personnally not really good at video games in general. I don't really play that often, even if I love the art of video games. Some would call me a "casual player", and still this is one of those few games that I really enjoy playing, from time to time.
You can either play half an hour a day or for three hours straight, you can choose how much time you spend here.

Maybe you're scared of that "Early Access" thing, but I guarantee you the developper actually listens to feedbacks and is always looking for improvements. You can tell she's doing it out of passion.
