If you spend a lot of time alone in your head, you are going to love this game. If not, it would be a great exercise [spoiler]since there is no running away from loneliness[/spoiler]
7/10 A 3-D puzzle game in a post-human world. It's similar to Portal, but with more logic and less physics. The music is good and it's pretty. I didn't really care about the philosophical elements, but I had a good time solving the levels and especially finding all of the bonus stars.
Играл во вторую часть. И она всё таки понравилась мне больше. Эту взял по большой скидке, не очень мне понравились загадки с бомбами.
Difficult, well designed puzzles. Great game
good game
Highly Recommended!
Came for the clever laser puzzles, stayed for the existential crisis. One of the most atmosphere-rich puzzle games ever made.
One of the best puzzle games of all time. Absolutely buy the Road to Gehenna DLC as well.
А в чем разница между деревом и лягушкой? Лягушку можно вые
Would you like a headache? If the answer is yes, then give Talos Principle a try. The puzzles will sometimes make you wish you never heard of the game, but then you "see" the solution and it's great. Some of the back and forth gets tedious or feels a little annoying, but when you get that "Aha!" moment it's all worth it.
