Played on PC via Steam. A wonderful experience marred only by some quirky control moments. Some things translated to touch maybe a bit better than mouse.

Played on PC via Steam. A wonderful experience marred only by some quirky control moments. Some things translated to touch maybe a bit better than mouse. These moments were rare, but the few I encountered were frustrating. You would have a puzzle solved, but got a false negative only because the controls weren't spot on. Even with those snags it was still a great game and worth the price of admission.

Fun, little mobile puzzle game to pass the time. I have beaten the main game with no hints or walkthroughs and only have the epilogue left to do. Well worth the price of admission!

This was a really fun way to spend a couple of hours. The puzzle boxes were intricate and beautifully designed, each one feeling unique. The hint system was a little too helpful – as someone who sucks at puzzle games I couldn’t help but use it as a crutch. The music was eerie and as the plot unfolded I found myself getting drawn into the story (Even though it was pretty barebones). I want to detract some points for the lack of Cenobites. All puzzle boxes should lead to Cenobites, hooks and a pasty-faced sadomasochist hell priest wearing leather. But each to their own.


NOTE: I played this on my laptop. Don't do that. It is clearly made for touch-screen devices.

I'm through the third or fourth puzzle now. It's a cool, dark puzzler if you've got an iPad.
