Every once in a while a game comes out that uses the medium to push the boundaries of interactivity and adds new facets to what it means to play it.

Despite the name, the title developed by Coin Drop Games is actually a puzzle game that's nothing more than decent.

Yet that same ambition ultimately becomes the game’s greatest weakness. The deeper mysteries are fascinating to unravel, but the solutions are often so well hidden that many players will inevitably find themselves consulting a guide, community discussion, or online walkthrough. Constantly getting stuck damages the pacing and interrupts the playful momentum established by the game’s clever writing and impeccable presentation. While the game itself rarely takes its premise too seriously, its puzzles, however, sometimes do. And that, unfortunately, prevents this brilliant meta-concept from fu…
