So...

Fun on another level

I’ve read about this game on PC/consoles… I see it is an April fool, but is it any good?

Marvellous.

If you have a PC, download the free development version from here and see if it’s your kind of thing. If you have a Nintendo Switch the official release is a particularly cerebral no-brainer.

It’s good. The difficulty progression does seem a bit lumpy at times, and for some levels once you’ve worked out what you need to do it can be a bit tedious to work out the correct sequence of moves to put the plan into action. But the world & zone maps are fairly open-ended, so you’ll almost always have alternate puzzles to switch to if you get stuck on one.

So how long until “Nemo Is You” comes out? ;-)

The irony of suckering myself into doing something foolish is not lost on me.

Reproducing Arvi’s prototype (from the itch.io site) is not hard. But there’s hidden complexity and unobviousness (is that a word?) in the full version. It’s the precise ordering of the rule sets that is ‘interesting’.
