We have a new release today!
It's a real beauty, without doubt. But be aware, reviewers consistently report less than two hours for a playthrough even with the puzzle solving.
Really cute. Will wait a bit though, seems like a very short game.

Edit: Just saw Vainamoinen's post, 2 hours huh? Hmmmm...

Good news that there are still people, who love and create 2D point&click adventures. However in this specific case I'd rather wait a while for the first reviews...
i'm going to pick this up i think. even if it is short, i think my youngest will enjoy it.
With that price tag it was easy to asume it'll be short. Which is fine to me.
Looks gorgeous and short is fine by me
Well I had put the game in my wishlist. Seeing the price and the artbook bonus, knowing that Charles Cecil produced the game, insta-buy !
This reminds me of Lilly looking through:
Pretty, full of detail, passion behind it... but short and lacks challenge.
Oh well, I'm obviously not the target demographic.
And since my backlog got an unhealthy boost during the last two weeks, I'm going to stay away from this one. At least for a while. Off to the wishlist you go Little Acre.
And it's here. Pleasantly surprised it doesn't come with higher than the US price points, and nice to see the art book included.
Wonder what the "beautiful original score" is like, not even the composer's site has anything specific about it.

I have to wishlist it for now (the tax man is relentless this year, and does not share my fondness of p&c adventure games), but hope it sells well, so we see more from the devs.

i think i have that lilly game.

instabought this game because:

1) it looks not 3d
2) the req. should be ok ( 2,67 hz quadcore)
3) the gpu card should manage it

same here but i haven been able to buy anything i can run and like, i only got Deadlight: Director's Cut here at wintersale because i bought the old one at steam at sale and the game has some movements and effects but i haven seen 3d rotating and fpp, and i wanted to run the game without the darn steam client, so i 'promised' myself to buy this game if and when GoG would have it.


So thats why i was able to save some cash : no large buys in 2016, no black friday , no fall/wintersale
