    The Bookwalker isn’t about inventing new wheels but combining familiar concepts in intriguing ways, ably marrying point-and-click adventuring and turn-based combat to provide a dark world to explore, filled with surprises that are ultimately more intriguing than its grand finale.

The puzzles are quite easy, I only got stuck twice and had to resort to a YouTube walkthrough but other than that I beat the game in under four hours.
