It was amazing
It was so good, but soooo short!! now I kinda want to know more about Butler's adventures, guess I'll just dream on...
I want to play this game, but unfortunately it shows nothing but a white screen, the sound is perfectly fine though, trying to find some solutions online but nothing helps... :(
hello~ i'm interested on playing this game. however, on the zip folder it didn't seem any apk file... so how i can play this on android? thank you very much ^ ^
After looking into things, it seems the Android version isn't working properly at the moment. In the past the game could be read with the ONScripter Plus Android App, but since we increased the screen resolution the game no longer fits the phone screen. We'll remove the tag until it is fixed. In the meantime, you can still play on other platforms. Sorry for the confusion, and thank you for bringing this to our attention.
