illogicalbroken techvery difficult

From the get go the person reading the script clearly didn't have English as a first language. The weird accent, and multiple mispronunciations made it difficult to understand and listen to.

This game was a mix of video and audio hosting, as a filler between and included in the puzzles.

Initially the puzzles were challenging and enjoyable but later ended up being impossible and frustrating: missing clues from a couple of puzzles and one that made no sense at all, so much so that we had screenshot the puzzle then hit the 'Answer' so we could see where we had made an error - only to discover it was the game itself that was at fault, you can't solve a puzzle if the answers referred to are missing from the images or the audio is incorrect!

After 3 or so illogical puzzles, toward the end, we more or less gave up and just wanted the game to be over. We finished, but only because we could use the hint and answer buttons.

I won't be purchasing any others from this group as from a great beginning it ended up a crashing disappointment.
