The Witness

Perfect game if you wanna feel stupid

The game starts out quite nice and relaxed but after the introductory puzzles the difficulty ramps up like a wall. There is no given path in the game, so the chances are extremly high that you stumble upon puzzles without ever getting to the introductions of its concept. And even if you get an introduction there is a good chance that you misunderstand some concept and get stuck on the puzzles further down the line, since you never get told what to actually do in a puzzle. Then there are puzzles that expect you to use the environment to solve the puzzles without ever being told that there is even such a thing. If you don't see that you are stuck again. And the line about not wasting your time in the store description is a blatant lie. There is so many instances where you have to wait for something to happen. And most of these take forever.... Like the small bridge that takes over a minute to turn into your path. The only positive aspect I can find about the game is that it actually looks quite beautiful.
