-Theres some way I can loop it and John says hell figure it out. I hope there is a loop button on the transmitter because thats about all I know about transmitters.
-John asks Anna what she put on the tape. Well I told them who you are. And where to find you. And that youd like to go back to Vanien. And maybe bring a few friends this time around. Anna was this whole thing your pitch to get a free vacation?
-Anna is all in on the alien abduction thing. She thinks all those people in 1972 were taken by the Vanien as well but Kornfield isnt so sure. Likley on account of not seeing them when he was there.
I show Anna my geode and shes very impressed. Yes, yes, Im aware of the effect I have on women.
-Tyler pages me. Time to go back to the office, I guess.
-Tyler excitedly tells me people got a video of the spaceship! And its on the news! And John is thoroughly unimpressed. He begrudgingly admits it is interesting to himself, but thats it. John why do you have to be such an alien party pooper, man?
-I show him the tape Anna made and he helps me create that loop, so thats one bit of the puzzle down at least.
-I do laugh because this scene is the first time all game I feel the Playdate struggling with what they want to do. It is a conversation like Lets go inside (two hours later) Now we just need to loop it (six minutes later) I have to go to dinner, but youre almost done (one hour later). Ive actually enjoyed the mood of the game so far this is the first time it feels cheap to me where there probably had to be a better way to do this that conveyed what was going on without it feeling like a gag almost.
-I get the transmitter connected and hook up the tape. ALIENS. COME GET ME.
-This feels like a good stopping point.
-All in all, pretty impressive so far. The puzzles are a bit easy but I like that format here and the game overall is charming and interesting. The plot has me intrigued. Im down. Definitely one of the better Playdate games Ive played so far!
-Unless things go off the rails in the back half. I take no responsibility for that.

Time Played: I think already two hours or so. Times flies when you're detectiving so I'm not positive.
High Score: No high scores, but I did talk to one cute girl about my food court experience, so that's something.
Beaten? No not yet
Grade: This is heavily story based so it really depends on the ending, but right now it is in the 7-8 range pretty easily.
Favorite Part So Far: The way the guard at the Pearly Gates lowers his sunglasses to look at you when he talks. What a fun animation.
