This game is literally just Obra Dinn but better. The story is better. The gameplay is better. There's even a sequel.
>>
>>729204371
the makers of riven made "obduction", which is quite similar.
>>
>>729204371
Have you played Myst?
there are also a bunch of old flash games you might want to try.
>>
>>729209110
i uninstalled that a long time ago because i got filtered and just last night i had a dream that i was in the game and the explanation for the killings was that a bear got loose in the town.
is that what happened?
>>
>>729212323
IIRC the rich family killed the orphan to keep him from marrying their daighter and got away with it so the Catholic Priest, who was the orphan's adopted father, murdered them for revenge.
>>
>>729212228
Similar is a reach. Obduction is a cool concept, but it's no Riven.
>>
the talos principle
specifically the DLC but the whole game is good
>>
>>729204371
If Raven is high IQ for you, then you'll love The Witness.
>>
not high IQ series but still great:

The Room series
you can probably get all of them for like $5

Literally too high IQ, I got filtered with the platforms and the rewinding clones
>>
>>729215917
Then try The Talos Principle 2, it's easier, spare for the 3rd part of the DLC.
>>
>>729215669
playing heroes of sokoban 3 and holy shit i fucking hate the bard
also playing mirrors but getting through it very slowly
order of the sinking star is going to be so fucking kino

I watched one of the recent dev streams, and Bard's charm area also extents 2 tiles up and down.

The Room series.

Not as hi iq as Myst but Call to the Sea is pretty good.
>>
>>729219494
I wanted to try this game, but yeah knowing it's not as crazy does make me less interested.
>>
>>729220182
It's a good game just not as difficult as something like Myst and Riven.

It's not high IQ like Riven or Zachtronics, but of course still a very good game.
>>
>>729217748
Visually it's great but the puzzles are easy.
>>
Escape Simulator 1 and 2 are pretty good, decent difficulty.
>>
>>729204371
Quern is one of the better Mystlikes. Better than a lot of Cyan's latest outputs like Obduction.
Chants of Sennaar starts off interesting, peaks in the middle, then flounders its ending.
Good Snowman is Hard to Build was a fun little puzzler
A Hand with Many Fingers had an interesting setup, but feels more like a tech demo (it's very short)
Infinite Turtles if you want a Zachlike (I presume you've played through their full catalog)
Logic Bombs
The Looker
Signal State is another Zachlike

The Witness and its spiritual successor The Looker are ludo
>>
>>729204371
Escape Academy 1 and 2 were pretty fun casual puzzle games
>>
>>729222498
Try the demo.

>>729210974
I don't know if I have it in me to get the 320 score in Royal Flush achievement. Getting the 2 streak in Solitairdle was excruciating enough
>>
>>729209110
Is this the game where you walk around a town investigating some murders and then at the very end of the game there's a person in the town with you, walking up the stairs into the attic to kill you, and you suddenly have to actually run away from a person and escape the town? It was the biggest fucking jumpscare I have ever experienced ever.
>>
>>729221057
tfw it will NEVER EVER be at -75%
>>
High IQ, but you have to budget your entertainment?
>>
>>729222601
>spiritual successor
It's a parody. An actual spiritual successor would be Taiji.

This was relatively easy but I liked it a lot
>>
>>729204371
Im completely filtered by escape sim 2 in the space section where you need to synthesize an antidote because I read the thing and it tells me antigens for whatever symbols but then if I try to include them in the 2x2 box it becomes a layer of puzzle pieces not aligning at all with the adjacent parts and the outside.
But I enjoyed dracula castle and the pirate bar
>>
>>729209110
how scary is it? I can't handle horror games
>>
>>729209110
I respect the direction and I liked the vibe and aesthetic of the town itself but the mystery was as plain and uninteresting as it gets. Feels like the approach to game design was first and the mystery was an afterthought, but when the game centers around that mystery, it leads to a weak experience.
>>
>>729204371
People don't respect it but I consider Obduction to be an improvement over Riven. I think it's amazing. Firmament is a decent time as well but not much more than that.
>>
>>729204371
Has anyone here played Uru, the "Myst MMO"? I've been thinking of playing it, what should I expect?
