Ya like the 2D Zeldas but wish they were harder? Ya like FEZ-esque mysteries? If so, this is the game for you. I've not played anything else quite like this, and it's wormed its way into my all-time favorites.

This is a game that expects a lot from the player. You are expected to be observant, experiment, and persevere in the face of monumental challenges, and it's all the more rewarding for it. Do NOT look up hints before you see "The End." You can only experience this fresh ONCE, and I haven't felt anything like putting together the final pieces in a long, long time.

Note that if you DISLIKE any of the above, particularly in enjoying obtuse puzzles, you're likely to have a rough time. But if you're like me, and manage to tick every box, this game is priceless.

Oh, and the soundtrack is beautiful to boot.
