I'm having trouble finding anything to do other than die .

Edit: Oh, I did find some other places to go and even solved a puzzle

Going through my emails of posts, sipping on my coffee and saw your verbage and thought it was a post in the mixed bags break room. Scared the bejeezus out of me! So relieved to see it's about a game!

I'm not quite there yet!

oldbroad! Good to know!

There will be some more puzzles oldbroad but based on where I am at there certainly aren't a lot. The conundrums around finding and using items are more prevalent, but I think overall the balance of the various threads (exploring/puzzling/inventory/shooting) is rather good.
