Development
[edit]The game was announced on March 1, 2007.[1][2] The game's website went live on March 13, featuring concept art, screenshots, a trailer, wallpapers, and other game information.[3]
Plot

Gameplay
[edit]The game is a point-and-click adventure played from the third-person perspective,[5] and includes both musical puzzles and mechanical puzzles, as well as minigames such as a cards game and a conducting game.
Reception
[edit]Prior to its release, Adventure's Planet deemed the project "promising".[6] Igromania praised the game for its aesthetic, taste, and style.[7] JeuxVideoPC felt some of the logical leaps required to complete puzzles would annoy gamers,[8] but commented that the game effectively immerses the player into the world.[9] Adventure Treff identified issues with hotspot-clicking and room navigation.[10]
