Creators usually create art for their benefit and the benefit of others. However, anything can become evil... This is just such a case.

When paintings go missing, the police investigate the crime, but who takes on the case when the painting's image goes missing? Bishop, leader of the White Stone Order!

The Order has long gained notoriety in certain circles. Its members are engaged in mystical crimes, which no one dares to investigate. Journalist Laura boldly takes on such cases. Nothing surprises her anymore. However, this incident leads her to discoveries that are unexpected even for such an experienced detective. After all, our world is full of secrets. Can there be other worlds besides our own?

I have never played a game like this. Are they actually good? Fun?

[–] smeg@feddit.uk 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

They're sort of point-and-click adventures connecting a series of search and logic puzzles. Fun is pretty subjective but if you're looking for some gentle puzzles then I'm sure you could enjoy it.

I like puzzles..... A lot, but it depends on the types of puzzles a game has. I'll check it out (if it works on linux of course lol). Thanks

[–] smeg@feddit.uk 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I can confirm it works in Wine

[–] DonutsRMeh@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Awesome, thank you. Were you able to download the .exe file for it? I run my windows games through the heroic games launcher and when I redeemed the game it wanted me to install Amazon's games launcher and whatever so I just let it go

You can do Amazon's own games through Lutris, but this is through a third-party called Legacy Games. Simplest way might be downloading them on Windows and copying the binary, but if you're happy with a bit of CLI then I got Heirloom Games Manager working a while back.

Oh nice. I like the name and the logo, too. Yeah, I'm fine messing with the terminal. I do it daily on purpose and avoid GUI so I can learn. If one wanted to make a gui for Heirloom, what would be the best approach? I think it would reach more people.

Message the developer or have a look at their code, I guess!

[–] DonutsRMeh@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Oh shoot, I thought it was your project. lol. Oh yeah, I'll just message the developer.

When I said "I got it working" I just meant that I found it and it seemed to work at the time, not that I wrote it lol

[–] DonutsRMeh@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Lmao. I didn't even see the word "working". I just saw "I got". All good. I'll be checking it out. Thank you
