Highlights/Your Opinion/Review:

The game was difficult to start because of the little-to-no instructions, but as the game continued, it was on the easier side of the difficulty spectrum. However, the storyline itself is limited, but a few in world documents and letters provide a bit of context to the scenario. I liked the the integration of using a suitcase to solve multiple puzzles which created a different experience than solving multiple locks. Their hint system was simple, where the gamemaster communicated with us through a speaker. I would recommend this to be an introduction to the genre for new players since there are lots of puzzles for beginners.
