Looks like fun. Did you find it very challenging (aka on the Lighthouse/Iceman/Gold Rush side of the scale), or was it way too easy?
I'll give it a try myself. Thanks Tawm
No, it's not too challenging. There's a few ... off beat puzzles. And some things I wish the text parser was more diverse. (I am looking at you
key in the bush and rope)... There are two mini games - one is super easy (it's just the "Break Out" game... the second, not so easy to finish... I managed to do it through sheer luck, really
). It's one of the things I mention in the commentary, I wish there was options to skip those and just not reward the player the points for completing that part.

In case you wondered what the kippensoep (around 42 mins) is about, that's a Belgian meme that got into the world about ten years ago, when a radio show had a game where they'd call and talk to people and the called would win a prize if they said the word kippensoep (chicken soup) within 15 seconds of the call starting.

Good to know. I assumed it was some made up word! Cool bit of history to that! <3
