This game has a bug.
Even though I solve the animal puzzle, only sound is heard and the hidden room does not open.

Seems to be doing it fine on other peoples computers, but not doing for me?

Yes, it is an issue with saving the game.  If you’ve loaded a save it will not work, and I wasn’t able to figure out why it does this.  But if you don’t load a save it works fine.  I’m sorry about this

Really cool game!

Unfortunately, the bookshelf does not move for me when i trigger the mechanism. I can only hear the sound?

Hmm, I will check this out.  It was working fine the last update.  But thanks for checking it out and letting me know!

One thing to check, did you load a save before triggering the bookshelf?

It works when I play the game without saving.

But where the hell is the last shrine or the lost house key. And what is the decorative vase for? Searched the entire map :D A little tip would be great 

 Had fun with the game. Thanks!

The lost house key will lead to the last shrine, and it is inside the decorative vase.  It should prompt you to take the key if you examine the vase and look inside it.  If it did not work, let me know.  I have a patch coming through for the bookshelf issue, it has to do with loading the game.

I'm glad that you had fun at least! Thanks for playing!
