It’s not often I get to the end of a game and say, “Holy ****!” at the completion of the story, but I did on this one…twice. It’s a nice little game for an excellent price IMO.
I used hints pretty frequently when I couldn’t quite tell what a puzzle wanted me to do, but I never had to resort to “easy mode.” The puzzles all had solutions I found logical, unlike some other puzzle games, where I often have a reaction of “how was I supposed to figure THAT out” if I’m having trouble with a solution.
The coin puzzle seems to trip up a lot of people, and I agree that it made use of some algebra which I’d have found easier if I broke out some scratch paper. But as far as I can tell, there is only one solution for X. That was maybe the most satisfying to solve!
The one I struggled with the most was the antidote puzzle, because it took me way too long to figure out I was allowed to do something that was required for at least some of the solutions.
The only puzzle I solved by accident was the one where you slid around a bunch of squares to put them in the right order. I thought I knew what I was supposed to do and then about halfway through it “unlocked” and I’m still not quite sure why that was the solution.
All in all, I really enjoyed this game, and I’m interested in seeing other games from this developer.
