Default Stay away, far, far away

Stay away from Lume! Although it is visually clever (the entire thing was made out of paper and filmed to create the game), the game has the following flaws:

1. It is way too short. About 3 hours worth of play. The thing you will spend the most time on is a bookshelf, which contains a lot of irrelevant material.

2. The puzzles have a lot of pixel hunting involved. And the character can only stand in a fixed position.

3. The puzzles are mostly easy but some are really hard.

4. The interface is small. The game uses the flash player as a runtime engine, and looks to be made for an 800 x 600 display. Although it is full screen, you will have a gigantic amount of flash player won't even scale unless you right click and select zoom.

I won't be buying further episodes.
