First off I have long considered this game to be one of the first true examples of video games as art. I haven't fully played through the game in 20ish years so the puzzles were completely fresh to me and allow me to truly gauge their quality. The Pro's - Gorgeous visuals and amazing sound design. - Revamped puzzles. Some of the more annoying puzzles have been re-designed so you don't need a ream of graph paper to solve it. - The story is just a poignant as before and leaves you wondering about the backstory. The Con's - The movement is as slow as ever. I fully understand that this is on purpose so as to immerse you in the world...and it succeeds, but that doesn't change the fact that a good 2 hours of my playtime were simply me back tracking. - The puzzle difficulty is massively in-balanced. I was able to complete 90% of the game and all but 2 of the puzzles in about 5 hours with only a few jotted notes. I then spent close too 4 hours on 2 puzzles. As a kid I was equally bad at all the puzzles. But now I can see that some of them were leagues more difficult. All that being said it's well worth the cost for a weekend of fun. Thanks again Cyan. Proud to support a small dev giving us great games.
