A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

A short point & click adventure game in which you fake it 'til you make it!

How to play

  • Click the ground to walk around.
  • Click on object/characters to interact.
  • Move cursor to top of screen to view inventory.
  • To use inventory items, click on inventory item, then click on another inventory item or an object/character.
  • Left-click to skip dialogue lines.
  • Tab to skip entire cutscenes.
  • There is no saving/loading because it's a pretty short game, especially if you skip the cutscenes.
