Only partway through, but it's a good puzzle game. It definitely gives the same kind of vibe as Myst, but doesn't feel like a copycat, just the same genre of game. The puzzles aren't too tricky and the story is interesting! My only complaint is how many letters you find all at once, and only some of them are helpful for puzzles, so that is a little annoying, but it doesn't ruin the game for me.

Overall, a nice puzzle game with a solid story.

One of the most accurate and complex portrayals of grief. Doesn't try to pathologize grief, but instead understands it as messy, complex, and deeply personal. As well, the game allows the player to choose the path different characters will take, instead of putting grief into rigid "right" and "wrong" boxes.

There is no one correct way to grieve. It is different for every person, and it impacts every moment of life; every relationship and decision made.

This is a beautifully haunting game. An unguided narrative through a topic that is not often discussed in our real lives.

Early Access Review
One of the coziest farming sims I've ever played! Definitely much easier than most other farming/resource sims, but that's a plus for me, as I can find them to be too overwhelming at times. Just the right amount of challenge if other resource gathering games are a bit challenging for ya :)

The story is great too, I love P1P-3R and discovering the landscape! Also the painting mechanic is awesome and makes my farm feel so much more lively and really boosts the appeal of the game!

One of the best shooters I have ever played!

The dev team has been incredibly kind and uplifting to the community, listening and making changes as best they can when negativity arises. Devs, if you're reading this, I love and appreciate all the work you are putting into this game. It is clear that you have an immense passion for this game and its community, and I look forward to seeing what the future of Helldivers has in store!

Now, time to go kill some bots and bugs!!!

One of the most beautiful puzzle games I've ever played! The graphics wow-ed me from start to finish and the lighting and sound design is phenomenal! The puzzles are fantastic and using a way to keep track of what hints are useful for what puzzle helps immensely, but having to figure it out is part of the challenge, which was really fun! It was definitely a unique mechanic that I hope to see again in the future :)

I seriously cannot recommend this game highly enough! It is definitely one of the most relaxing puzzle experiences I've had in a long time. As well, the story and lore had me in tears multiple times! It's truly an unforgettable game and experience <3

A fantastic game series! There are some parts where you are looking for the puzzles rather than doing them, but there are plenty of guides online that can help. One of my favourite puzzle series by far, and looking forward to the upcoming Tesla series!

Best friend and I played and It's really amazing! I've played a lot of puzzle games on Steam and this is definitely one of the best! Can't wait to see what levels come next!

The designs are cute and feel very friendly, but true to the story and atmosphere. The puzzles are challenging but definitely feel fair and have a big focus on communication! I've never seen a "switch places" mechanic, but this is definitely extremely helpful, as different people have different strengths when it comes to puzzling!

Overall, 10/10! Great to play with friends and just to have a fun time!

A wonderfully macabre narrative adventure into decomposition, and how (traumatic) death can change relationships and family dynamics, quickly and suddenly. It is a jarring horror experience with accurate and emotional depictions of the decomposition process.

This is an incredibly thoughtful experience into mortality and I cannot recommend it enough!

Really cute graphics, funny cult tropes and humour! The gameplay is very forgiving and there are plenty of accessibility options!
Great replayability as each cult you grow will be unique!

Also the Cult of the Lamb Twitter page is hilarious!! Love this game, will continue to play more and more!

Not bad for the full price! As a lover of escape rooms, this is definitely a game to get! It has fun little references to actual escape rooms, like outlets that escape room employees often cannot hide or get rid of; so putting a "do not touch" sign is a must! Funny to have that in a VR game! Both rooms are a bit challenging but great fun! Really cool tutorial too in the lobby area to help get players used to how the mechanics work, or just to play around with for fun!

I can't wait to see what they make next, I really cannot recommend this enough!
