I still can’t believe how on point the variant puzzles are. Each one removes the exact way the last one was solved, even when I thought I was being so clever with how I solved it. It’s like ‘congrats on solving it, I knew you’d solve it that way, so here’s a more difficult way’ like three times in a row
For me the amazing part was somehow pacing. Every single time I felt like I am starting to cruise through levels, I was knocked down really hard.. and my brain exploded more than a few times.
Stunningly, this created one of the best mechanics for me — “if it was too easy, you probably missed a valuable lesson there”.
