Quadrilateral Cowboy is an excellent, albeit very short, puzzle heist game. Blendo Games drops probably their best game to date. I loved Gravity Bone 16 years ago when I was a kid, but Thirty Flights of Loving disappointing. This game is no disappointment. Once again, they excel at immersive storytelling without a single line of intelligible dialogue. We follow three friends and their numerous heists over the years. It's less about the heists themselves and more about the bond of these three women. It's a nice simple story, but the gameplay is the real highlight. The heists are brilliantly crafted to take full advantage of your arsenal of tools to solve the increasingly intricate puzzles cleverly disguised as heists. Instead of hitting you all at once with everything and hitting you with a glorified manual like some other puzzle games. The difficulty increases on a curve as more tools are provided to the player. You start with a computer deck for hacking electronics in the environment. I love the approach of typing out commands like a real computer. I won't list them all out, but the case gun is my favorite. The puzzle design is more akin to a Zachlike than a Mystlike. To explain, instead of restricting you to one solution for you to figure out, you're given wiggle room to experiment and solve it in a number of ways. I gotta give compliments to the unique art style indicative of a Blendo Game. The boxy character models and cyberpunk architecture is unique and inspired. I really wanted to explore more of the world. If I had any complaints, they would be with the short length and soundtrack. I have no issue with the music itself, I just don't think it fits the cyberpunk setting. A more atmospheric soundtrack would be better here in my opinion. Regarding length, because the game eases you into its mechanics by introducing tools over the course of the campaign, by the time you get them all, you only have a few missions to use them before it's over. Bonus missions or just an extended campaign would've been nice. There are some workshop maps, but I don't count that as a positive for the vanilla game. I recommend Quadrilateral Cowboy to fans of puzzle programming type games. (8/10)

A really interesting heist game with a deus ex flavor. It's more about puzzle work than Deus Ex but the feeling is still there.

It's a really chill cyberpunk heist planner game coupled with a very wholesome story told entirely without any dialogue or even words. Since you're always in the planning stage, there's not too much pressure, letting one explore and experiment at one's own pacing. The heists themselves are interesting enough, and each of them introduce something new, and gets more sophisticated as the game progresses. The Multi-Sim concept was the most fascinating to me, it's unfortunate that it wasn't used for than a single mission. But really, I think this game is more about the wholesome narrative about the ladies of Impala Solutions. It's not a complicated story, but it gives you enough glimpses into their lives to make you at least empathize with their situation. It's funny and its wholesome, it's unique and short. I just wish it lasted longer.
