    How long is the game? What is the expected timeframe from beginning to end?

    2-4 hours say the devs, although they think it will take some players longer.

    Thank you. I guess that's not too bad. But the more beautiful the game the more you dont want it to end. I fear this will be one of those.

    They do follow on by saying this...

    "We believe that very few will find every little secret. Those of you who will are in for a big treat."

    so there could also be replay value in finding all the secrets.

    Oh man oh man... This game is so polished with its presentation, art style, and sound effects.

    What i love most so far is the exploration, and discovering paths as you play along. Add a very eerie atmosphere when exploring, and the unique cartoony art style feels darker.

    Hopefully this game will take off and be a huge success, which benefits us also, meaning more updates !

    They mentioned earlier that there are no planned updates. I am hoping for a huge success to get another game out of these guys. BSB was my favorite game last year.

    BTW, for those following the "Decoders Club" thread, http://www.vedtorp.se/ has been updated today. If you click around you will see real life photos of places within the game such as the windmill and the red barn. I'll do some more digging on the site when I can.

    Thanks for the info, if this game is as good as I think it will be. I will be happy to pay for a sequel.

    Still pretty cryptic.

    So, is there unique info in the companion app that can't be found anywhere or if you fully explore the main game will you find out everything? I really don't want to do a juggling act.

    There are codes found in the game that you can enter in the companion app to unlock content. Not sure what that content may be.

    May be my only buy tonight. Was interested in Gods:Rebellion, but not suprisingly doesn't support 3GS.

    Loving the moody look of this one though.

    Well, I have already beaten the game like four hours ago and I must say I enjoyed it quite a lot. It’s very atmospherical, very polished and beautiful. Although it’s extremely short and simple and I guess it took me about an hour to beat it with reading the companion notes.
    I liked its folklore roots and fusion with reality. Dunno if it’s worth the money because it lacks content IMO, but it is a high quality one.
    Well, I guess it matches my expectations fully.

    For those who have played it, how does this game compare to Simogo's other games? I played Bumpy Road but didn't find it particularly exciting.

    You can't really compare it to their other games or most games in general. The closest thing to it in terms of atmosphere and pace IMO would be Swords& Sworcery

    In 4 hours, you've didn't find a lot of contend, according to the devs.

    Make sure you have enough space, this game expands to 807MB installed.
