One of the greatest puzzle games ever created and almost certainly the best sokoban. Endlessly creative with elegantly designed puzzles. When you solve a particularly difficult level, you are in awe of its creator's brilliance and you feel a tremendous satisfaction which is earned. Graphics are low-fi but charming and music is very enjoyable. One last note, the game is VERY difficult but not unfair, boring, or meaninglessly so.

Some puzzles are quite challenging, I've already gone through the entire process and possibility in my mind, yet when actually trying to solve the puzzle, I unexpectedly discover the result I haven't anticipated. Sometimes it's like solving a difficult math problem—feeling frustrated during the thought process when no solution seems to appear, but finally solving the problem brings a sense of clarity and a deep sense of accomplishment.

Do you want to stare at a screen, touching nothing, brow furrowed, for hour after hour? This is the game for you. It's like dark souls, except the boss is some stupid little collection of stupid words that are stupid. And mean. And lame. I don't need words anyway! 10/10 highly recommended.

BABA Is YOU GAME is GOOD is not FOR ME Baba is You is a great puzzle game that taught me that I don't really like puzzle games. I'm not sure I'd say I really enjoyed the game as a whole, but I am fully aware that that is not the game's fault. The game is an incredible example of how simple mechanics can come together in brain-breaking ways - it's like the ULTRAKILL of Puzzle Games (or maybe ULTRAKILL is the Baba is You of shooters) in the way that a few building blocks create a complex web of interactions that powers the gameplay. PROS: + Challenging puzzle gameplay is elegant and well-executed + Game's aesthetics are simple yet charming + Lots of puzzles - no shortage of content + Non-linear level structure helps reduce sticking points CONS: - Not anything, really. The game is incredibly good at what it wants to be as a puzzle game, but if you don't like puzzle games it's not going to give you anything else to work with. I don't really like the feeling of getting stuck, especially since I really prefer to focus on playing one game at a time (so getting stuck can feel like a blocker) but for those who do like the satisfaction of overcoming really tricky puzzles this game is great. Even though it didn't grab me in the same ways that a lot of my favorite games did, I will still probably return to the game to knock out some of the later levels anyways. Very good at what it wants to do, just make sure you actually want a puzzle game before you buy.

I would call this the Dark Souls of all puzzle games. Only recommended if you are REALLY into problem solving. I love the idea and the concept of the game. You have to think outside the box, but that box is often just inside another box. The game is hard, but also fun. Failures might lead to new ideas how to solve a puzzle. And sometimes there are hillarious ways to fail. Completing a level though, that's very satisfying.
