Dimhaven - The Lost Source

Great puzzles, fairly different from other games. I enjoyed Quern before, and this was another Myst-like game that I really enjoyed.

Just like Quern the puzzles in this game are logical and build well. There were one or two puzzles which I thought could have been build a bit better but overall it was done very nicely. I liked that the game was not hand holdy but did make sure to limit the answer space so that you can't get completly lost on where to use what you found (like is some games that are closer to MYST and their succesors). The story is okay and allows you to solve the puzzles but it's no master pieces or so, it's mostly there to motivate you along. The game will warn you that it can be hard, if you don't know what a logic gate is or never done some more mechanical puzzles then this might not the the best place to start. But if you like figuring out complexer puzzles I can really recommend this game! You should be able to solve the game in 10 to 14 hours, so it's a perfect game for a lazy weekend. It wont overstay it's welcome or repeat stuff. Every puzzle is unique and the difficulty ramps up throughout the game. So have fun playing it!

Just finished this: Great puzzle game, love the aesthetic and music. If you like games like Myst, Obduction or The Witness play this!

Awful! Awful! Awful! This game was highly anticipated due to how amazing Quern was, but it bears absolutely no resemblance. Quern took you to a mystical land and had difficult but (mostly) solvable puzzles that followed some sort of logic. This game was bad from the start. First, the character speaks, which totally ruins the immersion. It also tries to inject humor, which also takes away from the experience. The creators also made the bizarre choice of having intentionally pixelated graphics that cannot be fixed no matter how high you set the graphics settings. Where this game fails is the puzzles. I enjoy creative puzzles and difficult puzzles, but these are horrible. The puzzles come in two flavors: those with impossible logic or those that are easy to solve but tedious to actually implement the solution. For example, [spoiler] one puzzle requires you to enter in a letter code using a phone dial pad, but solving it requires you to know that you need to tap 7 three times for "R" since "R" is the third letter on the key [/spoiler]. That puzzle made me absolutely lose it. The rest are pretty much like that, so you will find yourself looking at hints and walkthroughs to get through the game. Skip this one for sure.

Très bonnes énigmes !
