Chapter 1 review: So far, so good. This probably took me 3 hours. My time says 5, but I took a nap once. That's not a criticism; I was just super tired. It was fun, but a bit too easy. Sometimes the dialogue tells you what to do with the puzzles before you have a chance to figure it out for yourself. Hopefully the later chapters don't hold your hand as much.

The story, characters, and art are really enjoyable, though. That's where most of the appeal comes from in this game. Even the simple puzzles are still entertaining, and the main character, Bwana, is very charasmatic and likable, unlike games like The Whispered World, which is a dreary slog to get through because of the whiney and depressed protagonist, Sadwick. This game stands in stark contrast to that. Bwana is a happy, easygoing dude.

Bottom line: It's fun and very enjoyable, yet a little too easy and short. Still, definitely recommended. Buy on sale due to its short length.
