Fantastic little puzzle game, I loved exploring everything and how tactile the whole interface was. I do wish that the little notes window allowed for more lines of text? And for symbol input too, especially for the morse code parts. It would also have been nice to be able to 'save' images or files to desktop for easy reference to reduce the amount of switching back and forth you have to do on CDs, even if there was maybe a limit as to how many you could have saved at a time. Overall though, I had a lot of fun, I loved how interwoven all the puzzles were, and it was great being able to go back to previous discs and go 'Oh THAT'S what that was for!'
Beautiful design and nice, interesting puzzles. The gameplay turned out to be more diverse than expected, although I wish some of the features were used a bit more. I'd love to see more monoclelord games in the future^^

As far as i have played, the artwork graphic and audio all are really nice, the only thing that's irritating to me is the constant switch around each CD to solve the puzzle, [spoiler] when solving CD 3 setup folder password, i thought there's only gonna be some link with the CD 2 blue pic since the colors on the pic does match,i kept solving and thinking all the possible code around that pic but it turns out the main point is actually on the CD 1 elevator lock pic [/spoiler], the lack of guideness and explanation made me not wanting to progress further because it's really tiring,i'm constantly confused about which solved which, and even switching around each CD feels like a lot of back and forth, maybe simplify it would be a lot better? or maybe i'm just too dumb and this kind of game doesn't suit me.
Nice little puzzle game, not very difficult, and quite short. But the presentation and visual design is top notch!
Increíble juego, muy entretenido y con un estilo visual muy único. Lástima que dure poco, podría estar horas jugándolo.
Непогана головоломка на вечір. Такий собі імерсивний симулятор Cicada 3301 на мінімалках. Є враження, що під кінець стало простіше, аніж в першій половині гри, але все одно все сподобалось. А насамперед є демка. Спробуйте її, і якщо зайде, то беріть, бо в цілому вся гра в схожому спектрі.
Lovely little puzzle game with a crisp retro look! Actually struggled the most with the puzzle where you have to install the elevator. Wish the game would've gotten progressively harder but I found most of the later puzzles to be easier, when compared to the start. Difficulty peaking at the end would have been nice. Also would have loved if it had been deeper. Mostly it was pretty obvious when I had to go back to a certain disk and I only had to revisit some disks once. Certain disks you visit for just a few minutes in total, making progress feel not super significant. Would have liked it to be a lot more complex but it was an enjoyable experience nonetheless!
This is a fantastic example of old abstract puzzle games. It is most reminiscent of such browser based ones as notpron but within a nostalgia and purpose-driven shell. The vehicle/shell is well-designed in that it has explicitly all the tools you require to solve the puzzles within. That is an important aspect as you should not need to search the internet or outside sources unless you are told to. A love letter to classic abstract puzzle games. *There's a couple bugs I ran into later on that caused rather unimportant soft locks (you just relaunch just as well). You will not lose progress. I would like to see more from this developer, a lot more in the future.
Delicinha de jogo!
Varied puzzles, clever design, captivating aesthetic.
