A very good puzzle with nice mechanics.
Something about the attractive cubic style of location design.
It’s a pity that it’s very short, but there are DLC that will extend the tests for you.

Another fun puzzle game I picked up randomly. Simple mechanics, that get progressively harder. it's remaster, however, is a much better experience. graphics are more advanced, quality of life changes, some bad puzzles redesigned, so go play that if you want to experience it

Story not interesting enough, puzzles not very fun, not a very good looking game. Not fun enough overall.

nice puzzle game though pretty easy, quite short but enjoyable and the ending i though was really cool

Technically I have already played this and dropped it years ago, but remembered almost nothing about it. After replaying it, I remembered why I dropped it: it simply isn't fun.

Q.U.B.E. has some interesting ideas and atmosphere, but ultimately is way too clunky and finicky to be enjoyable. I quit at what I'm pretty certain is where I quit the first time I tried this, which was a puzzle that involved moving around four cubes to align with lasers using magnetism. Problem is the physics just seem way too inconsistent to make the process of this even remotely fun. It's like trying to thread four needles at once.

I also feel as though a lot of puzzles in this are pure trial and error. Almost never did I feel like I was reaching solutions with proper deduction. Felt more like I was stumbling upon them by accident, making for a pretty unsatisfying puzzle game.

Several puzzles made me feel like I had single digit IQ, other than those I was bored out of my mind
