Really enjoyed this. Can't for the life of me figure out what the snake is guarding in the tree though...

Really enjoyed this, and appreciate you went the extra miles to put in some synonyms instead of exact word matching

This is a really interesting and fun game. Ended too soon.

@pressxtoskip - That tablet seems to be a reference to the golden treasure Jason and the Argonauts find in a tree - if you know the story, you can figure it out!

Cool idea and well executed.

Appreciated the extra polish, and the music.

I was reluctant to use the help button, thinking it would just give away the answer, but it's was quite a cool way to give a hint.

I thought it was pretty hard to get all words, even with the help system. One example is on the last sentence on the very first tablet. There were also some that I couldn't figure out at all.

Great one with fitting music and gameplay. The help paper surely helped a lot :D

Nice entry! It looks very polished, and you picked nice music. It was quite fun to play, but I couldn't find all the words. ;)

Very well done. I played the web version for.. quite a bit. I managed to translated some of the tablets :)

I grabbed the windows version so that I can play it later.
It felt very well polished, the music and sound effects were just right.
Very well done!

Very very original. And the music is perfect for this game.
