This is a part escape room, part detective mystery text-based game.

Took me a while to figure out how to unlock the drawer (learnt piano on Do-Ré-Mi instead of ABCs) and kinda failed the test at the end of the game, but it was a neat escape room experience. The grid puzzle was dope!

small side note: you may want to add the walkthrough as a downloadable on itch as well, or link the IFDB page here :)
