@JHDK sorry I’m not at that point just yet....I gotta say there were things I missed which surprised me but if you feel you have checked everything I hope it’s not a bug? As I had to start again as my camera stopped taking pictures, which I mentioned previously.
P.s have you got all the pictures? Maybe you need them all as it may cause a glitch?

@Deathwalka It wasn't a bug, just me being an idiot. I figured it out and got to the end. I'm watching the end credits now.

Kona is an ok $20 game about a French Canadian town where mysterious deaths occurred. It's the player's job to figure out the mystery.

I enjoyed most all of the exploration and I also liked the narrator following along throughout the journey. Once you get the snow mobile the game becomes a lot more fun to travel and I really liked vehicle.

The snowy scenery was very nice, from afar. Up close it lacks detail and interactivity. For instance, when in a shop there are tons of jars on shelves and if you hit them with a crowbar it simply passes right through them.

The load screens that would pop up out of nowhere, totally freezing the action for 10 or 20 seconds were annoying but I'd much rather them than a constant framerate slowdown. Besides the load screens the game ran fine for me.

The story wasn't the best. I never really got invested in my character or any of the secondary characters. It wasn't bad, but also wasn't good. Solidly average.

Overall I do not regret buying Kona and I had a somewhat good time playing it. It's relatively short and not very memorable but also fun enough while in the midst of it. I'm happy I gave it a shot but am not interested in any sort of sequel or continuation of the story.

To me this game is a 6/10.
