It's a good enough game, but it gets repetitive quickly and DANG it's hard. I'm not the best when it comes to puzzle games, but this felt like it ramped up too quick and I was just stuck forever. If you do enjoy challenging puzzle games, though, it's worth a shot. It's not a game I'd suggest for most people though.
Good game, a envolving story, but it´s too repetitive, so I dropped to play other games lol
Filament makes you feel dumb and is such a slow burner. You don't feel any satisfaction finishing a puzzle and you repetitively get stuck. No recommendation at all.
Too stupid for this shit
A fantastic puzzle game that does exactly what great puzzle games do. Having a simple idea, but stretch it to its limits.
In theory Filament has a very simple mechanic, wrapping a cord around pillars in order to open the gate and exit the stage. However this simple idea keeps expanding more and more. Wrapping pillars in the correct order, wrapping only specific pillars, wrapping from a specific angle, wrapping them based on the colors, wrapping with multiple cords etc. This simple idea keeps getting more and more interesting to the point where you're wondering what else could they think. The campaign is pretty lengthy close to 20 hours for 100% completion and the final-final level is one of the hardest in puzzle games history.
Apparently it has a nice story as well presented via computer logs, but I didn't bother to read any of them.
If you like puzzle games then you should play it.

I was hyped for this before I played it 😭
Feels more like trial and error than logic building to me. I might fare better at it if I could see better but the visibility sucks.
If spacial awareness is your puzzle type; it's an attractive game with plenty of content.
