This game is often touted as a metroidvania, though I would hazard to say that is being disingenuous to call it a metroidvania. it's really more of a puzzler with an open world twist, akin to The Witness. The game is pretty fun with some clever puzzles extrapolated out of a very basic set of actions you can take. The game itself feels somewhat dated, future puzzle games have spoiled me by having features such as the ability to rewind time if you make a mistake. This game has no such failsafe, i've been quite frustrated by a handful of puzzles requiring precise solutions in a very small timeframe. and if you mess up, well you have to start over again from scratch. It was fun though, despite my gripes.
