Anybody else buy it? http://store.steampowered.com/app/210970/

I think I'm in love. It's hard to describe but essentially the whole game is just a giant puzzle. I played for like 6 hours yesterday and feel like I had to think harder in those 6 hours than I have in the past 3 months.

The environment and artwork/lighting as amazing. Would recommend.

Edit: It's also created by the man who made Braid.

i havent

on a sidenote too, no game has ever made me want to literally get a pen and paper to sit with to save/figure out the puzzles.

its definitely more challenging than anything. not for the weak hearted.

Agreed about pen+paper, mostly because most of these would just be so much easier placing shapes onto the panels

you're also not allowed to overlap any of the pieces, where's your line piece? I'm a tetris pro but I'm convinced this one is impossible without something extra

They don't need to be on the icon itself, just within the grouping you make

I got super excited thinking it was going to be a myst-like game, pretty disappointed when I realized you just walk around and do the puzzles individually.

Still a neat game though

I read there's much more to it after a while. It seems like a really big game

Sort of, except the primary way you are going to be connecting with the world is through the puzzle screens. If you are into that part, good, but if you are focusing on the exploration and variety aspects of mist, you might be a bit disappointed.
