I just finished pic related. Some people seem to think it's on the same level as Stephen's Sausage Roll, which is moronic. But I still enjoyed it.
I misread this at first as it "is on the same level as stephen" and I got real excited. Sadly that was not the case and this was not nearly as interesting or difficult. Neat enough I guess though. Thanks fren
I thought some of the midgame side area puzzles were really hard, maybe harder than anything in SSR, and that was my favorite part of the game. Most of the game was way too easy and uninteresting though, I agree.
Yes it's a masterpiece.
finished Infra a few days ago, think i'm going to take a break from puzzlers for a bit. been getting into RPGs for some reason (Baldur's Gate 1)
I've been considering trying this. Looks weird and interesting. Can you pitch it to me with minimal spoilers? What would you compare it to?
really hard to compare it to most games. i've seen it called an industrial walking sim, which isn't wrong. a lot of the game is getting from point a to point b but there's some busted machinery or a system that isn't working, and you can fix it, or just frick off and leave. some story that can be explored through semi-hidden journal entries scattered throughout the game
its an exploration game. you explore abandoned factories, tunnels, mines, sewers and buildings with occasional puzzles that you need to do to progress further. its fun if you like exploration for exploration sake, there is a story and you have a job to take a picture of all the damages to the facility, but they are entirely optional. no jumpscares
Talos Principle is top-tier.
Besides the typical recommendations, I can recommend checking out classic survival horror games (Resident Evils and Silent Hills) for some neat puzzling goodness.
After absolutely BOILING about the recorder puzzles in Egypt, I took a break and it finally clicked. I'm eternally happy I didn't snap and look at a guide.
Proud of you son!
You did find the Dark Side Of The Moon easter egg, didn't you?
I have not, I haven't found any easter eggs apart from that one guy screaming like the suicide guys from serious sam
Better get to it then!
Is The Witness any good?
Solid meh out of 5. If you like just learning new systems over and over it can be fun, but the game is just far too simplistic in the borders of the squares. You get to use the environment sometimes, but there is a limit to the complexity.
no
The puzzles are good but the tone is beyond pretentious. The ending is like watching some dumb documentary in a museum. Go into it knowing that there is no story and the world is barely tangible. Think of it like tetris or picross or something.
Outer Wilds DLC. Antichamber from 2013.
I'm not good at puzzle games, because I am moronic. I also like to post frogs, because I am moronic.
The more you play the better you get
Portal and its sequel are both excellent games and puzzle teachers.
I can't help but want to drop baba when I can stare at puzzles for an hour and not make progress.
Sure, I can go and shuffle words around and try to brute force an eureka moment, but it's not satisfying.
I beat 4-5 zones, that's decent.
Is Myst good for a beginner to puzzle games?
Depends on your patience level. There's only 1 hard puzzle and that's because it's an audio one which I'm shit at, and 1 genuinely idiotic puzzle you should use a walkthrough for.
Use a real notebook to write stuff down, and really immerse yourself.
If you can do that you'll be fine. Myst was tons of peoples first puzzle game.
The Myst series are more of a walking simulator until you find the current missing piece, the puzzles are mostly easy. They're still good, but stop at 3.
No. Too much old game jank. Play Outer Wilds if you haven't already. Pretty easy but it has a lot of the appeal from Myst.
>old game jank
Sounds like someone got filtered
Nope, I just don't kid myself about the flaws of beloved old games. I'd recommend Myst to some people, but not a "beginner to puzzle games".
holy frick this particular level pretty much filtered me and i ragequit because i was stuck on a few other levels too
Every time I think I got filtered and am about to go fricking murder Elohim irl I then take a break, come back and find I found a solution.
Just keep at it and never look at a guide
late game stars are mostly bullshit, you should at least look up in which room they are because otherwise you're gonna have to solve the whole game again.
I already gave this game a second chance and the fricking instant i came across this i knew im textbook filtered by this game and especially this puzzle
and yes i didnt want to look up a guide so i kept trying but frick me this and a few others just were too bullshit for me
Does anyone have a puzzle game chart? I want a list of puzzle games
Anyone know of any puzzlers on Switch?
