It's... like someone took all the combat out of Silent Hill and poured more insanity in. It's like when you wished Resident Evil didn't have zombie dogs but only good boys you can pet. It's like a Giallo film about making Giallo movies. It's Alfred Hitchcock's take on Eraserhead. Or maybe it's David Lynch's take on Hitchcock's biopic? One way or another, Italian and French avant garde cinema with weird camera angles, word salad dialogue pretending to be deeply philosophical were clearly a major influence on this game. You play as Lorelei, a German sculptor/artist/computer graphics enthusiast, who arrives to a remote maybe-Swiss-maybe-Belgian mountain hotel on invitation from her maybe-friend Renzo Nero, renowned Italian filmmaker, of the sort that when you ask what movies he's made, and he names a few, you go "Oh. THOSE kind of movies". (It's not porn, it's just philosophizing while someone gets gruesomely disfigured) The hotel is mostly empty, Renzo is locked in his room working, and you have to figure out why he sends you on weird errands around the place to prepare the allegedly haunted hotel for the movie shoot and why so many of the things you find and read are ABOUT Lorelei, Renzo and their careers? And then it gets progressively weirder, with shifting camera styles (fixed-overview at the start makes way for overhead, for over-the-shoulder, for a short bit of first-person, for deliberate PS1 visual throwback and so on and on and on), wacky dance numbers, sad romantic songs and lots and lots of anachronisms. At its driest, LATLE is a puzzle collection loosely tied together with a plot, kind of like the old Sierra classics - Shivers, Castle of Dr Brain, you know the sort. You solve a puzzle to get a key to a door or a hint to a puzzle on another door, beyond which are new books to read and puzzles to solve using stuff you've read elsewhere. You slowly accumulate a stack of items that are either keys or key-analogues and fill up your Photographic Memory with the contents of books and notes and photos and what have you which you will need to regularly consult to solve more puzzles. It's been a long long while since I had a good puzzler that makes me want to reach for a piece of paper to figure a puzzle out even once. On this game, I spent six sheets of A4 paper, filled both sides. Let's be honest: it's HARD. But it's also very very FAIR. Almost every puzzle has a legitimate chain of logic behind it, AND most of them are randomized between playthroughs (the corresponding reference books shift, date-based puzzles shift dates around, etc) so you wouldn't be able to just rush it through with a walkthru. And it's just three Swedish dudes doing most of the lifting. AMAZING.

Blue Prince minus the annoying RNG. Seriously folks, this is a fantastic puzzle game with incredible atmosphere that reeks of David Lynch and Guy Maddin.

Video games have gotten so good at drawing players into their worlds, from their presentation in the form of lifelike graphical fidelity, sharp art direction, and naturalistic voice-acted dialogue that together weave a spellbinding story to “core gameplay loops” that put us in a satisfying flow state wherein we lose track of time stuck repeating those loops as if they were second nature, and in their most cynical form, with dark patterns of UI and UX and FOMO that farm us for engagement to maximize the chances of us spending even more money on ~content~. Puzzle games make up the one genre that always snaps me out of this fantasy so that I can recognize myself as separate from what I am playing. They are constantly forcing me to reckon with the design and see the game as a game meticulously constructed by other people. Other genres certainly do the same, as it’s inherent to the medium to ask its audience for active and immediate participation, to acknowledge its rules when they try to play. Puzzle games just make it so it happens with every single point of interaction, relentless in their reminders of their artifice, the designers always stopping you with each puzzle to do the seemingly impossible and demand you read their minds through layers of deliberate obfuscation. Lorelei and the Laser Eyes renders this artifice with the clarity of a transparent rhinestone, refracted through logic puzzles, perspective puzzles, math problems, cryptograms, mazes, quizzes, and riddles that you solve within text parsers, point-and-click adventures, and 32-bit 3D horror games within a virtual reverse escape room that evokes Resident Evil’s Spencer Mansion, but instead of the living dead, Pepper’s ghost haunts the halls of Hotel Letzes Jahr. Behind this padlock that halts progress, a keypad with a code; type the right code in the keypad, a jigsaw awaits; put the pieces together, you get a mystery box to crack open. With every puzzle solved, the reward is yet another confounding puzzle, refusing to let the player ever get comfortable. Lorelei and the Laser Eyes is a ceaseless snapping of the fingers to wake the audience, producing an inescapable verfremdungseffekt that empowers them to pierce through the parlor tricks of solipsistic, self-indulgent, self-aggrandizing pretension. It is a video game that warns the player to never give in to astonishment, and for that, it earns my applause.

A fantastic and well-crafted puzzle game with a similarly well-crafted plot. No substantive critiques in any form; the game's difficulty is well-balanced, it doesn't outstay its welcome but more than provides a worthwhile time. Now I've just gotta decode these strange sequences from the ending...
