Thanks for the reminder! I just put in my votes.
I was glad to see that I can/should stop after 90 minutes for long games. I spent 30 minutes on Wo ist Mr Beaver? before getting 10 points, and typed Score, and saw there were 1290 points to get. I played more, about 90 minutes total, but there’s no way with my weak German that I’ll finish it any time soon.
I had a lot of fun with the games in general! The other three are very easy to finish except for one or two puzzles (which have hints), for anyone else who’s interested in trying them. There are two inform parser games, one focused on Japanese mythology (with one mild puzzle), and one puzzle-focused comedy game about getting dirt on your jerk boss who just fired you. The last game is a twine game about the afterlife, with quizzes about what the most ethical thing to do is in different scenarios.
