I am a beginner @Cythera, but an expert at several other Ambrosia games. I was just wondering out of curiosity if anyone would mind telling me how long, in hours, this game takes to complete.

Hm... it's hard to say. I probably took about a month worth of days to finish it, playing an average of 20 minutes at least and 40 minutes a day at most... I'd guess around 56 hours, although that does seem a bit on the high side.

Of course, the amount of time you spend on the game is largely determined by how much help you get. If you do it all on your own, you are looking at significant investment of time. If, on the other hand, you do nothing but what it says on my site, you can beat the game in a matter of hours. I seriously recommend trying to beat the game on your own, as this leads to the most enjoyable play experience. Don't give up too easily on any of the puzzles in the game. They can be pretty tricky, but it's good feeling knowing that you solved them yourself.

i think i did a time run once and finished it in under 5 minutes.

though i spent about 3 weeks at 3 hours a day 5 days a week the first time (only got help from Slayer's site 2/3 of the way through).
