      Man. I got about 5 minutes into that game.
      I think I closed it and started a second runthrough of Stray. Wanted the kitty, not the spaceship.
      I should eat some mushrooms or something and give it another shot.

          Thanks. I’ve kept it installed. I’ll pick it up.

          I did the same with Obduction, and Stray too, now that I think of it. Yup, and with Talos Principle.
          Puzzle games have to grab me. But I can be grabbed. I finished the first two.

          I sure worked on Talos, but I got tired and just watched the end at the top of the tower on youtube. I did buy Gehenna, played it a bit. Never did Talos II, and Reawakened does not look good to me.

          Mmm. And then there’s the abandoned puzzle game. Turing Test. Ya, its uninstalled. Apparently I completed Chapter 3. I don’t feel a shred of interest at this moment, either.

            While outer wilds could don the moniker of puzzle game, I think of it as the evolution of point-and-click. By that I mean there’s a fleshed out world to interact with using your intuition and innate interest in mystery rather than a set of tasks to complete.

            I hope it clicks with you!
