Mind-bending puzzles and an eerie sci-fi plot come together in The Talos Principle.
Its easy to feel a little nonplussed by it all, at least at first.
When you first approach one of these terminals, you notice your fingers are robotic…
The ingenuity of the story extends to the puzzles.
Each set of puzzles introduces a new mechanic.
There are weighted boxes that can be dropped on pressure-sensitive buttons.
There are things called Connectors, which bounce lasers around coloured receivers on the walls.
As youve probably gathered, some ofThe Talos Principles puzzles are incredibly difficult some infuriatingly so.
Visually,The Talos Principleisnt what youd call cutting-edge, but its very pretty given its indie status.
Once the puzzles have you in their grip, you barely notice the odd low-res texture.
The Talos Principleis available now from Steam.
