Besides the odd few puzzle with little to none proper explanation this may be the first puzzle game I properly played, no big cheating, maybe a good sign for myself personally but it's also a good sign for this game. Johnathon Blow is clearly a controversial figure, but to let that ruin a game for you is dumb, to find an art piece lesser because you think its author is too high and mighty about it is also dumb as your experience and theirs will never be the same.
It's a strange experience but the puzzles themselves leave me feeling near entirely greatly accomplished and there's a subtle profundity or sense the game has been designed to spin itself on its head for certain puzzles, a meta aspect to them. The plot is curious, the writing is genuinely exceptional in terms of language and an entire book written as such would be in my interest indeed. The strange balance between game and story being not entirely told to you and leaving itself to be unfinished in order for you to finish it yourself, that being perhaps a theme of the game, is the strongest aspect. The graphical spin, a kind of other worldly Mario game, with this depth and hand painted style is another highlight and the soundtrack is equally built to perfection. Besides a general shortness and puzzles being lacking or annoying I still think this games willingness to breed curiosity in not just the puzzles make it a staple of the puzzle genre.
