The Witness takes you on a unique journey in which provides beautiful visuals and an engaging gameplay element. One in which is entirely taught by the use of your controller, no rules or tutorials; just you and the environment. There is no story, only dialogue told by visuals and famous quotes by Philosphers, Scientists and Artists from past. I loved every part of this game but I do admit, it gets very hard very quickly; and while accomplishing a puzzle after so much effort is an amazing feeling, some puzzles are so hard. Like very hard. If you don't use a guide at all on this game, I commend you. By the end of the game, I was following a guide through the challenges this game presents, it that hard. But from what I was able to accomplish on my own was extremely rewarding, one in which many little games offer.
No context, no dialogue, and no-one to hold your hand. Inside is a story in which you decide how to percieve the storyline that plays over the protagonist as you take him inside a brainwashing facility. Using deep philosophical commentary through its hidden writing; this game will give you psychological thrills. As for gameplay, doesn't ever bore you always providing you with new mechanics to keep you engaged and interested. The difficulty while not easy, isn't hard either; choosing not to hold your hand and let you figure out the subtle and clever puzzles scattered throughought the world. Like its predecessor Limbo, its beauty is within the player to discover.
First time playing the first Broken Sword game, I believe I played the second one when I was younger on the playstation but overall I really enjoyed this game! The puzzles were fun, and the story was engaging and immersive. This game is probably targeted a lot more towards the original players of the series, but with the Remake us newbies can now understand and get a feel about why this game was so great!
