There is a small class of games of inductive games, the first I know about is Eleusis - a card game by Robert Abbott. The idea of the games are that you are expressly not told the rules for a particular level/hand, and have to figure it out during play. The sort of puzzle solving is not what one usually sees - you don't try to figure it all out from an initial position, you need to experiment and theorize, and if the puzzles are well designed you get an aha and then have mastered the puzzle. I think this is well designed - and gives this experience as well as I have seen any computer game I have played. Framing each level as the same form of solitaire with a hidden twist allows you to get small, more standard puzzle solving experiences while running your experiments. I did run into one level I didn't (and still don't) understand, which can, of course, be frustrating. You can switch in that case to story mode, which allows you to take back all moves freely, which can speed up your experimentation a lot - but can also just brute force you past the level. Who would like this? That is an interesting question because the inductive puzzle solving is so niche. There is a very good chance fans of solitaire won't like this - especially if they go into it thinking it is about the solitaire. I think the solitaire is a perfect framework for the hidden puzzle - but on its own it is boring - I don't think there would be any interest in playing the levels again once you have the hidden rules. People who like puzzle games may or may not - it won't feel like the genre they like, but if they are interested and open to a new way to approach puzzles, they might. And someone who knows what inductive games offer - and like that - this is an easy recommendation.

I really enjoy the atmosphere of the game, the trickle of information, the figuring out of the rules. But oh my god the notations on the letters/etc (i.e. LOL RIP, "corny ass sign off") really take me out of the game in a frustrating way.

Yes, I recommend this game, but not without reservations. What I love: The writing is phenomenal and creepy, the lore is intriguing, the music is suitably creepy and moody but not intrusive. The first few levels of puzzles are really fun. What bothers me: I expected the puzzles to get more difficult as I went on, and they do, but they get to the point where they are prohibitively difficult. Example: I got frustrated and looked up how to do the Punch Card. The first thing it said in the guide was "this is easy if you know binary." Binary? What normal, average person knows binary? Or would even think to try that? Figuring out the puzzles on my own was fun. Being forced to look up a guide and write down the answer word for word so I can follow along in my own game because it's too complicated to do otherwise is not fun. (I'm looking at you, Photo Level.) That is only my opinion, of course. If you like solitaire and you don't care about completing the higher tier puzzles, you could probably have hours of enjoyment on the first four levels. Because the early levels really are just solitaire with a fun twist and they're not so complex that it requires notes.

"what if freecell were an SCP?" is not a pitch I expected to pan out so well, but sometimes life surprises you! finished the main story set (all endings) in about eight hours, looks like I've got about that much again with the extended variants; caught it on sale but would have happily paid full price. in fact, I gifted my partner a copy to play while she's out visiting family! had a bug in the tutorial where the coins didn't move at all, but the explainer text made sense once I was in a real game. the only other issues I noticed was occasional frame-stuttering when I was dragging a card around (but just the card itself, render framerate remained solid), and occasional audio popping from the music. my only minor complaint/frustration was that the Esc key does nothing, game menu and X buttons appear to be mouse-only. (dunno about controller)

First thing first: this is a card solitaire. If that's not something you'd enjoy solving again and again, move along, this is not _much_ else there. I did not like the writing even a little bit: very cliché, tries to appeal to your emotions but does not always make logical sense. Now this game presents a _single_ solitaire with the same rules. Those are explained to you in the tutorial. There are seven variants on how the required final card for each foundation communicated to you via the coins in the top right of the screen: from the obvious one, to a quite involved one. The tutorial tells you that every deal is solvable, I'm not entirely convinced that it's strictly true: while there always seems to be a way to clear the board, the required final cards in some deals may not be achieved: which is fine because the game gives you a different "ending" for the number of the final card achieved, so if you did not get all the 4, you will get a different ending, and hopefully will get the 4 next time for the progression. I personally found the base solitaire (even without considering the final cards) quite difficult. I would have passed on, but I decided to write a program solver for the game, and I had a few evenings of fun doing that. With the solver I've "completed" the game. That's obviously cheating, especially because the solver can get the final cards from the game save without you having to deduce them, but I'm a firm believer that there is no cheating in a single player game without a leader board, and everyone has the right to enjoy the game the way the like. While writing the solver I had a glimpse of the game code, and was happy to discover, that unlike with many games it is quite structured and "clean", it was pleasant to look at. I think that the developers did a very good job, with a very solid game play if you like this kind of thing. The writing in my opinion failed horribly, but that does not detract from a nice clean ruleset, the fact that most of the deals are solvable, and very competent implementation. If this sounds like something you'd enjoy I can recommend this game to you.
