Syllogism

Syllogism is the latest puzzler from SVGames - the development team behind Logicality and Puzzle Park. Although I was not a big fan of their earlier DOORS games, I have really enjoyed these last three titles. This new release is similar to Logicality, in terms of having six diverse areas with similar puzzle mechanics.Here, you have pillars that can be rotated to 8 positions. An area has 6 puzzles that each require you to set 4 pillars correctly. Pillars are set according to environmental clues (some immediately obvious and some not-so-much). Each puzzle solved activates access to the next puzzle in the area. Achievements are granted for completing an area and then a final achievement is earned for finishing the game. There are also 20 stars to find (some very well hidden and some requiring a puzzle solution) for an additional achievement. Stars can be used to by-pass specific puzzles (5 stars to skip 1 puzzle). Once you have finished the game, you can return and search for stars without any replay required. The game auto-saves on exit. All progress is retained but you are always returned to the entry point of the game (which is a good thing if you jumped into an area that has no exit!). If you quit in the middle of a puzzle, you will need to restart that specific puzzle when you return. I have an older laptop and had some issues with stuttering when I started. I was able to solve this by tweaking the graphics settings (in-game) and had no further issues. I enjoyed Syllogism very much. It is relaxing and made me do some serious thinking. In the absence of published guides, I did not have the option of being lazy! There was only one puzzle that I ended up brute-forcing... the rest were solvable as long as I was paying attention and examining the local environment. Solutions/clues are contained within or very close to each puzzle so, with the exception of hunting stars, there is no endless wandering required. Currently, I have 19/20 stars which has taken some serious examination of every nook and cranny. You can jump up to higher points and use pillars to get even further above the ground Jumping and walking on edges is quite forgiving and this is a requirement if you are determined to gather the stars. All, in all, it is a lot of fun if you are a puzzle person and I highly recommend Syllogism. Now, if I can just find that last star!

It's puzzles are not even logical, and it kills my braincells, all for nothing. -1/10, would never play it nor recommend it to anyone to play. seriously don't, it's pretty bad.

You will need to look up the solution to some of the puzzles in this game because they don't have any clues how to solve them or the clues don't make sense or are very hard to figure out. Also, don't walk in the water or you will be sent back to the start. Unless, for some reason, you're a sheep.

[quote][url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/9686972/]Follow "[b]First Person Exploration and Puzzle Games[/b]" for more games like this![/url][/quote] There are two types of puzzles in games: "deductive puzzles", where you know all the rules and need to use them to complete a task; and "lateral thinking puzzles", where figuring out the rules [i]is[/i] the puzzle. This game is exclusively lateral thinking puzzles - every single puzzle is about figuring out what the rules are. Like their previous Witness-inspired games, Logicality and Puzzle Park, the puzzles in this game are all superficially similar. Specifically, you have four pillars that each have an arrow which can be pointed in one of 8 directions, and based on the things in the puzzle area, you need to figure out which direction each arrow points. As with their previous games, the developers did a [i]mostly[/i] good job of coming up with new gimmicks throughout the puzzles. There are a few instances of basically the same gimmick being used twice; and there were also two puzzles which I would argue were terrible or flat-out wrong: [spoiler]Octopus 6: You have to complete ignore half of the clues given in order to get the correct answer[/spoiler] [spoiler]Cow 4: This puzzle was [b]massively[/b] underspecified. I thought of FIVE completely different answers which were all reasonable... and all were wrong. I had to look up the solution - one of my guesses was basically correct, but the developers apparently(?) had one of the pillars in the wrong direction.[/spoiler] Aside from those complaints, if you enjoy lateral thinking puzzles, this is a worthwhile one to spend 3 hours on.

Very short game for the price. If you're not a smoker and don't wanna spend 30 minutes trying to get out of bounds and falling out of the map, you might get your money back after completion.

Beautiful and well made puzzle game. Would recommend.

Прикольная головоломка на вечер

I'm either not smart enough, not patient enough, or both. I usually like puzzle games like this, but as another user stated, you can't even use logic to solve some of these puzzles. It's way too esoteric overall. I gave it a shot, but I'm really not having fun with this.

супер крутая головоломалка, так и не понял секрет барана в озере

Game giải đố chất lượng với phong cách truyền thống của SVGames. Hệ thống câu đố phong phú và đa dạng với hơn 30 câu đố chính và nhiều câu đố phụ chia thành 6 nhóm linh thú đại diện cũng như 6 loại chủ đề câu đố. Các câu đố một vài làm rất tốt, một số lại trừu tượng nên có những câu xếp thứ tự phía sau nhưng lại dễ hơn những câu đố trước trong khi trò chơi bắt buộc bạn phải hoàn thành theo thứ tự từ 1 đến 6. Phần tương tác rất đơn giản nhưng hệ thống di chuyển lại cho cảm giác rất thô và trơn, đặc biệt điểm trừ rất lớn là không có tùy chỉnh tốc độ chuột. Không có tính năng khóa FPS cũng như các tùy chỉnh đồ họa cần thiết và việc tối ưu cũng không tốt mấy khiên trò chơi cực kỳ nặng dù chỉ với đồ họa lowpoly, nếu bạn có cỗ máy mạnh và biết cách dùng phần mềm thứ 3 để lock fps thì có thể chấp nhận được. Một trò chơi giải đố giàu chất xám, tư duy logic với mức giá phải chăng rất đáng thử qua. Video 1h gameplay: https://youtu.be/9b6dkAKBBx0?si=7Jw45iO0Mcl3YdLT
