If you like The Witness, and you also like puzzle games that are 100% puzzle and 0% presentation, then this will be right up your alley. At times it's a bit more obtuse than The Witness, I found myself getting more stuck. But since there isn't a story, I'm not too annoyed if I can't solve every puzzle. It's fun to keep chipping away at. Before you start the game, I recommend that you start taking notes on the rules. You don't need notes to play, but I think it helps organize your thoughts, and it feels good to catalog all of the rules.

-The-Review- tbh, some levels are quite uninspiring unlike The Witness (a direct reference of The Witness can be found in this game). But overall, it's a decent puzzle game with some really interesting think-out-of-the-box puzzle.

A very bare-bones line puzzle game with some funny and interesting twists along the way. This game feels great on steam deck btw.

I just got to the middle of world 9 and am feeling fatigued with this game so I will take a break. That's not to say this game is bad actually quite the opposite I think it exercises creative and logical thinking and problem solving beautifully but it does require intense focus and in my case as someone with shorter attention span due to all the social media I used to consume it got really tiresome and I could solve less and less levels each time before becoming mentally fatigued. But that is a good thing as well as it's training my focus just be prepared that you will need to take a break.

"When you're thinking about something that you don't understand, you have a terrible, uncomfortable feeling called confusion. It's a very difficult and unhappy business. And so most of the time you're rather unhappy, actually, with this confusion. You can't penetrate this thing. Now, the confusion is because we're all some kind of apes that are kind of stupid working against this, trying to figure out how to put the two sticks together to reach the banana and we can't quite make it. And I get this feeling all the time that I'm an ape trying to put two sticks together, so I always feel stupid. Once in a while, though, the sticks go together on me and I reach the banana." - Richard Feynman
