It feels especially relevant to this community because I'm picking it up again after a hiatus of over five years. I tried back then but got hard stuck on a puzzle that I just didn't get, and I refused to look up the answer and spoil the joy of discovery for myself.
Anyway, playing it is 2024, after walking around for 30 minutes to refresh myself, I was able to solve almost instantly 😅 so now I'm back into the game and loving it!
It's a quintessential patient game, with its slow pace (including the walking pace - glacial when compared to action games), and puzzles that you can puzz over in between sessions (even for years like in my case).
I told this story to a friend, and they asked "so did this puzzle take you 30 minutes to solve, or 6 years?" Which is a thought!
