Regarded as one of the best puzzle games, The Room began with a mysterious box. Tools and clues were provided to unlock its secrets, compartments revealing more and more mechanisms. The most notable instrument was the lens, which uncovered images otherwise invisible.

I really enjoyed it, especially the satisfaction that came from searching for clues that then led to successfully working out what to do next. Everything was intricate, the various bits and pieces of the box fun to manipulate with a mouse. Lastly, while the story may have been subtle, it had potential with its cosmic themes.
