An experience like non other...
Well what can I say about the Witness, other than once you've been through it and come out the other side, it will be entirely incomparable to any other adventure game franchise you've ever experienced. It was inspired by Myst, however the Witness certainly holds it own in the same way that Quern, undying thoughts also does. There are some stark similarities between the gameplay of The Witness to those seen in Myst, Riven or indeed Myst 3. The puzzles are unique to their environment and all point towards an end goal. The visuals are gorgeous and colourful, but also relevant to their own environment. Top Tip: Jump in the boat! It's a game changer. If the endless and occasionally tiresome bout of panel drawing becomes too much, then the boat rides adds to in-game entertainment. Plus it aids orientating what feels to be an initially very large island but it soon transpires it is not all that large and intimidating at all. However there is one major flaw in the gameplay. Each and every puzzle must be solved by connecting lines in panel. Each area contains it's own unique rules on connecting lines and dots, for example, symmetry, maze, Tetris etc. Whilst this may be a thrilling concept for some puzzle lovers, it also relies heavily on being astute in all areas of skillset. I particularly enjoyed the puzzles around symmetry and the environmentals, but the others I found almost impossible and had to use a guide for help!! Despite this, there is something strangely addictive about it. It hooks you in. At first you think to yourself, what on earth is this, but after a few days of playing it you can't keep yourself away from it! It is also a strange and eerie place to be. The human statues add to the eeriness of the environment. It is a very difficult game, but well worth the ride!
