A very beautiful and very enjoyable puzzle game. Perhaps a bit clunky to move around (making copious notes will help!) and was occasionally tripped up by the movement clunkiness, but the puzzles themselves never really did (although that underground maze did suck!), once you got past the first few you intuitively build up an expectation of how a puzzle may look like, what may be clues etc. and it never really drifts from that intuition, even if again inputting the solution was clunky.
The different worlds/ages and general atmosphere/ambience is just absolutely fantastic, and is really a great incentive to stick around, stay immersed and get those puzzles solved.
If this is just a warmup to Riven, I’d better plan to play it sooner rather than later.
