I loved playing both this game and the part 1.  Great job!  I'm doing a second play through of part 1, and there are some mysteries I don't understand yet.  I'd appreciate some hints if you can spare them.  What do I need to do with the 4 holes in the graveyard?  Why is the graveyard familiar?  What do I do with the monoliths?  And how do I get the combinations for the gas station safes? I've gotten all 3 triangles and all 4 keys, and have explored every room before using the triangles.

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed! To answer your questions:

- The graveyard is an easter egg, referring to my previous game Mystery Mansion where the 4 holes are used for something. Shared world sort of thing. They have no other purpose in The Fairview Incident.

- The monoliths and locked safes are leftovers from cut content - they don't do anything, sorry!

Super row les <3

Good game!

p.s. I'm stuck in an access tunnel :

I am too

i got the crowbar but now im also stuck

This would be "must have" for PICO-8 platform... Any chance?

Old-timer, how dare you give me a lowres map in this hires game? :D Really nice artstyle, I love exploration games. And every game with a crowbar is a huge win for me :)
