this was fun! the puzzles were pretty easy but it was still enjoyable and subverted my expectations enough to keep me intrigued
its a super cool idea and a thoughtful ending that makes you say "man"
Solid, concise little experience that runs exactly as long as it needs to be (looking at you The Witness). Mixed reviews of the messaging throughout but the game itself invoked a lot of emotions and the ending quote has hung heavy in my stomach these last few days after finishing it. I feel oddly compelled to pick up Stanley Parable now.
I don't usually have that childlike wonder that I did playing games anymore. I think everyone loses that as they get older as well as nowadays it's blocked by the fact that under the hood I know everything in the game is within the bounds of what the developers have coded. This games atmosphere, story, and gameplay gets rid of all those boundaries. It convinces you anything is possible. The narrators continuously try to take control of your situation and you take it back every time by breaking the rules and making your own path. It lets you fully tap into that childlike imagination and it makes for an experience that everyone should have.
Quase fiquei doida com esse
