Play through time?

I got this game during holidays because it had a great review in PC Gamer a few months ago. I hope it did well enough for you guys. Anyway, I haven't even started yet and I usually get frustrated by adventure games even though I try a lot of them, but how long should it take to get through? thanks

It's pretty short. If you don't try for achievements you can probably go through it in 5 or 6 hours.

For the most part the puzzles all make sense as well, which is refreshing. I hate it when adventure games have ludicrous puzzles that make no real world sense. I don't think I ever had to use a walk through. I was only frustrated once, but that was do to the interface (one puzzle requires you to look at an item in your inventory, but it's never fully explained how to do this, which was a bit frustrating, but I figured it out eventually).

I just finished Geminie Rue .....10 minutes ago. Just checked my steam play time, 10 hours. However, I would take an hour off that because of leaving the pc to do other things and leaving the game running. So it took me about 8-9 hours on first playthrough. I very much enjoyed the game!

Ok thanks for the headsup. I already got stuck somewhere early because I think I said the wrong thing to the guy in the hotel desk. Yeah, I'm that bad I guess, I think 45mins into it.
