I enjoyed the beginning a lot, the game started to tell a story but I didnt find out much in the end. Well it´s like in a real life. Not every clue leads to interesting experience.

the dialogue was well written and the start showed a lot of polish. I wished that translated through the entire game. For instance that all the book titles were of the same quality (i.e. not "A book" by ...).

Yeah, to both points, there was a lot of lazy, quick writing in this one. There's basically not much of a narrative, just quick decisions made on the fly, with no real idea of what the arc was going to be.

finding out how how cellphone indicatives work in the us just kicked my ass . so i quit ... still the game has a nice foundation ! and i certainly liked the mysterious vibe.

I was really worried about that, and I'm sorry that it caused a problem for you. I am pretty ignorant about how calls are made outside the US. If you have any tips about what is confusing, then let me know.

I honestly couldn't figure out whats with the phone and the number thing :o but I think the start was good :) a little bit spooky considering previous visitor left quite important stuff behind etc.

Pretty great adventure game! More of that please.

Very interesting concept! I included it in my compilation video series of the Ludum Dare 37 games, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/xWdPMmlW1Hs

Well done for a compo entry ;)

Herm. I got the birthday, but the phone implies I don't know what it is... a little frustrating.

Cool game, though. Nice graphics, interesting mechanics, engrossing story.

Well, I got the mom's birthday but the phone won't let me punch it in. Good start though.
