I have to say that Splice has been one of the most interesting boring puzzle game I have played this year. Like without a doubt the mechanics of Splice work for it, and it really is quite challenging to figure out how to fit everything together and planning moves ahead of time. The main problem with Splice though is that it feels more like a lengthy mini-game than an actual game. Everything is barebones, tutorials , music, and menus. If the presentation was any better, or things were a little fancier I would certainly consider this a more interesting game to play, but as it is, it would have been better as a mini-game.
