The House on Highfield Lane

The House on Highfield Lane by Andy Joel (IFDB). An IFComp 2021 entry.

I feel like I only made it a quarter of the way through this game in two hours. The house is a maze, but fairly sparse. I wasn't even sure I ran across a puzzle - it's just mysterious. It's clear that a lot of work went into this, but I felt like it didn't nudge me towards the more useful or interesting bits very well. Rated 5 of 10.
