For everyone who enjoyed Journal 29 there seems to be another similar book on Indiegogo: Trip 1907
It's supposed to be a sailor's journal, depicting the last mission he had been on. There seems to be much more story around the riddles which I found to be the only downside of Journal 29. Hopefully this project funds!

I have to be honest and say that I lost interest in this early. The poor writing, especially the many grammar issues, was just too much for me. I may return to it eventually, but I can’t recommend this in its current state.

The poor writing, especially the many grammar issues, was just too much for me.. I believe the Creator is from Greece so I excused most of the grammar/spelling errors... But not before my urge to dig deeper kept me thinking they were puzzle pieces! |

But not before my urge to dig deeper kept me thinking they were puzzle pieces! I can forgive it from, say, a Facebook post, but if one is actually making a final produced printed product, one should at a minimum find someone native in the language you're publishing in to give it a proofreading edit. I was interested in this book but reading about this issue turns me off fast. |

This seems inexpensive enough that I'm not worried about a few grammatical errors. I think most of these projects are a labor of love, and in no small part, I feel like I patronize these projects just because I want the creators to get some compensation for their efforts, and I want to see more projects like these.

I don't regret supporting this, but it's more than "a few" errors. Virtually every online passage has significant issues. I guess you could chalk it up to the character/narrator not having a great command of English, but it was distracting enough to pull me out of the experience, especially since a big part of the advertising for this was "Journal 29 but with a story". I agree with an earlier post that this should have been proofread. The few puzzles I solved were fine but simple; I'm sure they get more complex and inventive the farther along you get. |

I have it and have finished. Anyone who needs help feel free to send me a message. adelindanne I'll send a message shortly. I just want to add with my offer of help, I am not affiliated with the creator for Trip 1907 so if you have feedback, you may want to reach out to him instead of me. Also, I finished the book without taking any hints, so I haven't seen any of them. If you have taken the hints and still don't get it, please tell me what the hints said so I don't essentially repeat the info they give. I'm not trying to frustrate anyone on purpose, I just don't know what they say. |
