Filling a void I didn't know I had

Having finished playing games like Fortresscraft and Factorio, but not being in the mood for puzzle games anymore, I had passed on Opus Magnum for a while now. But it being on sale piqued my interest. So I went ahead and purchased the game, being slightly wary of the 'puzzliness' I may encounter. Fortunately, the solutions you create can be inefficient monstrosities if you so choose, or you can make a concerted effort to streamline your machines. This takes the pressure off of the more casual mind that may not be interested in burning up brain cells just to make the perfect mechanism. Enjoying the game very much! Graphics are nicely done also.

Another Niche Masterpiece

To those familiar with Zachtronics, this is essentially exactly what is expected - another excellently crafted design based puzzle game, prettier and more polished than the last. It's fairly approachable and not hugely difficult to just complete (at least for the sort of people who get familiar with Zachtronics games), while having a lot of depth and difficulty in competitive optimization. I'll admit a glaring soft spot for both alchemy and the entire concept of alchemical engineering, which added to the appeal. There's also the surprise bonus of Sigmar's Garden, the marble solitaire game none of us knew we needed. For those unfamiliar with Zachtronics, the genius here is in the entire concept of the design puzzle game with excellent components. It's pretty in motion, sure, but the core gameplay loop of being given a problem to automate, a set of tools and rules, and complete information on how everything works, then breaking it down and building a solution yourself to fit is what drives the game. This is particularly true when something goes wrong, and you get in a loop of frustration and epiphany as you find and solve your own errors. Beyond that there's also a surprisingly strong narrative side. The key characters are interesting, their interactions fun, their stories interesting. There's a subtle sense of humor about the game, punctuated with occasional wry hilarity. There's a coherent setting humming quietly in the background, and a good one at that.

geniales puzzle...!

...am anfang einfach, aber sobald man ein lehres brett selbst "erstellen darf", wirds richtig gut. machnmal zum haare rausreissen :) lernen durch machen, ausprobieren. der schritt modus ist eine feine sache! auch das man gelöste puzzles als animierte .gif speichern kann, quasi als zaunpfahl für später. das spiel erinnert mich irgendwie an das musikprogramm "fruity loops" :)

Excellent mechanics, great presentation

This is less of a strict "puzzle" game, more of a game about mechanisms and experimentation. Tightly designed, elegantly presented, Opus Magnum is an excellent way to stretch your brain a bit and have fun in the process. One of its greatest strengths is that it sets a goal, gives you the tools, then gets out of the way. You can be creative, efficient, or somewhere in between, so long as you achieve the desired output with your machine. It's by far my favorite "thinking" game at the moment, precisely because it's built to encourage making your own solutions instead of finding the developer's solution. Highly recommended.
