reminded me so much of something out of The Neverending Story that I half-expected Gmork to pop out of that cave. 😅

I can see Lilly's arc ending with her leaving Juniper Hill freshly lobotomized. They could work the hair ribbon and toothy grin from the title song into her appearance because Ka is a wheel -- and it would be darkly funny.

My favorite parts so far are the character interactions and voice acting/motion capture. The writing is a little stiff here and there, but the majority of it is great so far; and I will never tire of Gustave's various "I am so done with this" expressions and body language. 😆

But man what I would give for a proper mini map. I mean, from a story perspective I get why one doesn't exist but it would've been nice to have some sort of breadcrumb or marking system, or a map that fills in as you progress. 😮‍💨
