Stories are dark and emotional. I got quite attached to every character in the stories. I sympathise with them and eager to know how it could end. I really love the writing. I like that the puzzles are metaphors that goes with the stories. Some things could be improved though. The gameplay can be a bit more challenging, like the puzzle difficulties, especially clues for photographs are too obvious.

Neat idea but the puzzles have bad conveyance. You get stuck on puzzles that make zero sense and if you can't get it they just skip it for you. Super frustrating. My recommendation is to add an indicator if a certain step is correct. Don't just let us skip. If you have to use a skip because people can't solve your puzzle then that should indicate that the puzzle is poorly designed.

What an unusual game! Photographs contains 5 individual stories which delve into mistakes and regret. Alongside each story is a different type of puzzle which has been very cleverly integrated within each story in such a way you feel the protagonist's plight even more. I was hooked from the first story and absolutely loved the ending, the art and music are wonderful, and the puzzles can be tough at times but can always be worked out - definitely one to pick up!
