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.

I have been going back and forth on whether to buy this one. Looks like it is right up my alley but reviews seem to be all over the place.

Since it runs well on Deck I might just give it a try.

Hope you enjoy it! Fantical has it for about $5 off if you want a bit of a discount.

The experience did steadily grow on me the more I played, so don't expect to be blown away on your first couple tries.

Thanks, that's exactly where I bought it from.
