Gotta write about this one - not a masterpiece or anything, but the game deserves a playthrough if you like both puzzles and piecing story together. - Puzzles are original as far as I can tell. "Inspired by Sudoku and Minesweeper" is a bit misleading; it's closest to nonograms and I see no relation to sudoku. - As a puzzle game, it lacks QoL features such as undo and marking/drawing - Most puzzles have multiple...

FORTUNATELY I don't need to finish the game to know my review. Flashing lights + asinine 'aesthetic' restrictions are annoying enough, but they also hurt me. also some folks might want to be aware for more severe reasons e.g. seizures. Why they cared to list none of this on the game page but were self-involved enough to use the game description as game content is beyond me. Glad I didn't try to play this offline,...

I loved the first puzzles. But making the puzzles not only ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ huge, but also with complex mechanics mixed in, it became less solving and more trial and error. Since to get the "Hacker" achievement you had to solve without making a single mistake, I would just try and fail, then screenprint the solution and restart. I liked the story, but having to pause my investigation to waste 30 minutes into a unfun puzzle...

Sorry, James is a narrative-driven puzzle game that transforms the act of decoding encrypted files into the heart of a gripping psychological thriller. Instead of focusing on combat or exploration, it invites players to step into the shoes of James Garner, a security engineer employed by Mantis Corp., a company known for developing advanced weaponry. His latest assignment appears routine at first: decrypt a...

To be honest, this is a pretty interesting game that resembles a thriller. There is some intrigue in the gameplay. There is also a sense of buildup

7/10 Very interesting Puzzle Indie game. The narrative of the game and the way it goes on are very novel. However, this game would not take you so much time to finish, and you may still do not understand the story and what happened even after you finished the game. Although you are a hacker, in this game, the way you hack the document is to solve Sudoku, and nothing more. The story is a little amusing, but too...

Review of the gameplay - It's fine. The puzzles are decent, and the difficulty increases at a good rate. Turn off the VX option AS SOON AS YOU START THE GAME. It doesn't cause any bugs, but it makes reading some of the puzzle tiles difficult. It's purely a retro aesthetic that isn't needed. It's worth the $2.50 for the puzzles I suppose. I hit "not recommended" for this game based on the story though. Anyone who...

Truly unique experience. I mean, right from the start there's something I've never seen being used in game (way you need to figure out login and password). Mechanics are simple from start, but gradually becomes more complicated. I liked that dialogues aren't in chronological order (like in Memento), that adds even more stuff to think about in this game. Definitely recommended for players who like to dig into...

Boring and repetitive. If you want to slog through uninteresting puzzles to get chat logs of two people sexting and talking dirty, then this game is perfect for you. Maybe it gets better later in the game, but if I have to read the words "Mr. Boner" every 30 seconds to get there, then it isn't worth it.
