Is a good, short puzzle game But I do have to say, some of the puzzles are a bit unintuitive. Access granted/10

Прикольная и относительно простая головоломка на открывании разных причудливых сай-фай и хай-фай шкатулок на пару часиков для релакса Простая, но притягательная графика , все эти лампочки, переключатели, экранчики, потертости, царапинки очень мило и тепло смотрятся. Если в детстве (и не только) любили разбирать все что еще не разобрано, то за счет визуального стиля точно нужный вайб поймаете. Музыки нет , просто фоновый шум дождя, можете ставить какой-нибудь свой lo-fi. Белый шум на некоторых шкатулках раздражает чутка. По сложности , имейте в виду, что зачастую можно случайно мысленно "переусложнить" данную вам задачку: 80% из них, особенно в начале, элементарны. В это число входят еще не очень оригинальные филлеры, на 36 уровней можно было обойтись без них. В этой части (а их две пока что, да, и вторую я тоже советую) для решения вам не нужно буквально мыслить out-of-the-box, т.е. каждая коробочка сама по себе содержит свое решение и гуглить что-то или прокликивать окружающую обстановку не надо. Хотя, конечно, местами этот out-of-the-box состоит в том, чтобы осознать не всегда поддающуюся пониманию логику автора. В любом случае есть возможность пропуска уровня, чтобы к нему вернуться позже. Кому важны ачивки , все изи получить, просто нужно 36 уровней пройти. Вывод: всем кто обожал головоломки в стиле the room, тех что были в старых резиках и мобильных играх 100 doors, советую. Брал на распродаже, с хорошим скидосом деньги отбивает. Мб можно использовать как айдлер в перерывах между нудной работой щелкать по одному или по паре уровней. Спасибо выпуску рефанда от стопгейма за рекомендацию второй части, так и купил обе. Оценка: ( уровни игры / 12 + 0.5 ) из ( уникальные буквы в названии игры - 2) ну или 3.5 сломанных кнопок из 5 неработающих переключателей З.Ы. Если вдруг вам показалось, что вы тупой и что-то не смогли пройти из-за якобы небольшого iq, то я со своим пхд честно застрял на 25 (сложением/вычитанием собрать картинку) и 34 (тут я себе сам переусложнил, как описал выше, нужно мыслить максимально просто и буквально) уровне, поэтому вместо пары часиков получилось сильно больше.

Short n sweet puzzle game with nice graphics. The puzzles are all pretty easy and it's not unlikely that you'll finish the game before the 2h mark. Pretty nice as a relaxing game, but lacking when it comes to challenging puzzles.
