  • Indeed challenging

    Sometimes, it’s too complex for casual attention to be paid, but that’s why it’s good. It’s frustrating, but in a good way. It’s all about a little extra thought. Then, it isn’t really hard, but clever and you will feel clever too. I’ve restarted my game (could not do so without un- and reinstalling?) because I put it away for a while and am liking it even more now that I can attack it again with a little experience under my belt. Visually artistic and very pleasing. I suggest not trying to understand the background story premise right away, but I believe it can be done if you read the companion app ‘Compendium’. Feels a little like Taltos that way in that it’s a fragmented science-tech diary of some sort. Nicccccce.

  • Refreshingly complex

    Plenty satisfaction to be had solving novel puzzles with virtually no hints.
  • Keeping the little grey cells sharp

    Excellent, challenging you always to think outside that mundane box. Love it! Highly recommend.
  • Hate it

    I enjoy challenging puzzles but this one makes no sense. I hate when developers make a puzzle so difficult just for the sake of making it almost impossible to solve with zero logic. Don’t waste your money, I deleted it after 30 minutes. Wish I could get my money and time back that I wasted on this.
  • Amazing!

    The puzzles are designed fantastically! And the style of the game is simple and fitting. A very well done game! Also, keep a pen and paper close by. Some puzzles are easier to do with something physical to write with.

    Thank you game makers for bringing this game to the market!
  • One of the best games I’ve ever played

    For puzzle lovers, this is a must have game. Everything you need to know is provided within the game. I love trying to figure the levels or chapters out. Definitely makes you feel smart when you finally figure them out.
  • Great concept and execution!

    If you love solving puzzles, you’ll love this game. It’s fun and at times frustrating... but very satisfying when you figure it out!
  • Just what I was looking for!!!

    I’ve played hundreds of games and this is one of my top 5, along with the Room series, Goragoa and Device 6.
  • Definitely one of my favorite puzzle games

    If you like puzzles that give you very minimal information but all the tools are there to solve them, this is the perfect exemplification of that. I loved most of the puzzles; some I feel could have been better communicated or required more leaps in logic than necessary, in my opinion, but I never got frustrated. Pen and paper helps for some puzzles. The lore seems interesting, and paying attention to it probably helps with kind of getting the feel of certain puzzles. Overall, this was definitely one of my favorite puzzle games.

  • Awesome App. Really challenging

    There are some parts where it stumps you. You have 3 helps and 24 hours to refresh them once you use it. I did cheat to help understand the vague hints when you swipe to the left. But overall this is a great app!!!!
