This self-mockery was funny enough in its own right, but then in the third act Barnett and his team did something entirely novel, something that deepened and enriched the entire game for me. You are required to almost exactly duplicate a puzzle from the first act, except instead of being in Unseen University you are now in Death's garden. Otherwise, everything is identical, both irrational the methodology and outcome. As in the light of day, so in the dark of night. As in life, so in death. irrational Or something like that. There was a lot irrational of this twisting and turning around the game on itself. Even the epilogue turned a well-loved movie trope on its head, not exactly mirroring it but inverting it. Active minds at work here is what I'm getting at, and that makes for a good game, regardless of the seemingly endless chatter. Act IV: Till Death Do Us Part This is where my bright idea about a review in four acts breaks down, as I really can't reveal much more of the plot without doing the game and the reader a disservice.
