What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
But compared to the prequel, the improved graphics, BGM, and streamlined design that cuts out unnecessary elements make it much easier to immerse yourself in the puzzles
What makes this progression particularly satisfying is how naturally each mechanic is integrated.
The soundtrack is minimalist — the kind of soothing music you can leave on in the background for hours without it ever getting in the way of your thinking.
I also wish there were some environmental puzzles--or even better meta puzzles--to make the archipelago where you find the puzzles more interesting to explore, as it is the archipelago is just a menu select and a drain on your laptop's resources.
On my steam deck, running at high on 60 fps made the machine blast like a jet engine, so I bumped the fps to 30 without lose considering you're staring at a flat grid most of the time anyway.
I would love to see a comfortable gamepad setup for the game, but sadly gamepad feels worse than nothing as it just moves the mouse cursor (the same issue goes for steam deck. unless you're a pro with the track pad stuff or have the patience to make the perfect alternative control scheme I wouldn't recommend it if that was your only platform)
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. One more theme was raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and is not shown.
