Run run... you have 3 minutes left! No, I guess this game has a time frame for each chapter like in Gabriel Knight 3 and player has eventually all the time he needs to solve the problems. However it would be interesting if your every action in the game would count, i.e. move to the game clock closer to the zero depending the action itself - browsing the inventory would cost less than running from the third floor to the fifth floor. But I don't believe this is the case either.

Oh, and if you are wondering the font used in the Sinking Island logo - wonder no more. For what I browsed through the set of Art Deco fonts I found two really close matches

New Hampshire Bold


and

Andes


Both available at: http://www.specialtyfonts.com/deco/index.htm

[Sunich]

Yeah, they match! Don't really need the fonts, but good work finding 'em Ante, good observation.

That's strange, I'm sorry to hear that.
I don't have any problems with the game...

The new background adds so much. Well done.
