the first time i saw a phone, i wanted to call 911. The game is very beautiful and i like how many interactions they made, and the game also reminds me of the game Rusty Lake Hotel

I loved this entry, it was super fun to play, like a mini escape room. Loved how clean the morse code mechanic was. Great job!
A very cute game, pleasantly plays on the jam theme! You feel like a real biscuit. 10/10 stupid iphones. photo_2026-10-22_20-17-31.jpg
So cute! Works so well with the jam theme, and very fun to play! Gives me all the old Newgrounds feels.
This was a greatly fun, light puzzle game! I really appreciate that knowing how to use the old tech is not the sole thing driving this game, but rather the light puzzle elements too. Using the bits of media given to you gave me those "a-ha!" moments that make puzzle games so great.
The art is on point, and the sound effects for every action are super nice. Both characters have their own personality to them that works really well both with how they're voice acted and the setting of course being an extension of the grandfather's character. I really don't have any criticism here, thank you for this wonderful game!
Fun puzzle game. brought me back to the good old days. I like it that I had to rewind and check the video multiple times for different stages of the puzzle, making good use of the assets.
Nice game—plus, I love point-and-click games. The only thing that startled me was the phone at the end; it was very loud compared to the rest of the game! ^^ Well done on this take on the theme !
Really enjoyed it! It feels very complete! I quite liked the telegraph and telephone puzzles as they required pen & paper (4th wall theme?). The voice acting adds a lot to the mood as well. Not much I can say about issues, amazing work!
Fun little "Escape Room" type game! Impressive level of polish. The old tech felt solidly implemented and intuitive to use. Strong connection to theme. The sound deserves special mention 👏 I enjoyed the time-appropriate music and voice-acting
Fun game, nicely polished. I wonder for how many players here that this was their first time using a rotary dial phone and a tape player. :-)
@tony-li Funny you mention that... I thought I'd be able to figure it out, but after several failed attempts I had to open another tab and search "how to use a rotary phone".
Great game! No notes :)
