Can of Wormholes

3 YEARS. STILL GREAT MOVING PUZZLES

gg

A clever puzzle game where you play a can piloted by worms and solve worm based puzzles. The puzzle difficulty was pretty steep for me and there's a lot of mechanics to learn so probably a good fit for puzzle aficianados.

非常好的解谜游戏，而且自带提示

很有巧思的解密，提示部分给的很足，难度不算特别高

A great twist on sokoban where you must keep your own worm's size and movement rules in mind as you maneuver yourself and other pushable objects with their own unique shapes into place. The game's relatively small list of unique objects have a surprising amount of interactions that the game teaches over its course, eventually allowing for some unique twists on old puzzles. I generally found solving the puzzles satisfying, and I felt like even lategame puzzles were usually more about finding a key insight rather than simply scaling up the complexity. The hint systems are good. The main one usually opens a simplified version of a puzzle that forces the player to make a key move that will be useful in the real puzzle. With its assistance, I never found myself reaching for a guide. Overall, I can understand why this won Game of the Year in the 2024 Thinky Awards.
