@The_Goon When you go to load game, it shows you how many puzzles you've solved.

The Save file shows how many puzzles you've completed. Think you just need to select Save or Load from the pause menu IIRC.

I'm stuck in a room with water. Massively frustrating because I know the "trick" to the puzzles, but I still can't make this one work... pretty close to giving up and using a guide, but I might wander off somewhere else first and come back to it later.

@hedben2013 Ah I think I just did that. Bit annoying - took a while but gives you the clues you need.

Two lasers down now. Found the boat and made my way to the section with the coloured squares. Made a trip to the top of the mountain too. Not sure I entirely understand the mechanic yet but working my way through the puzzles.

@hedben2013 if this is the room I'm thinking of (one of the "sun glare" puzzles in the desert) then yeah I found that one of the more frustrating puzzles in the game.

@atothewest yep that's the one! I cheated and looked it up. I'd persevere a lot more if it was a puzzle where there may yet be an "aha" moment of seeing the trick, but that one was just annoying. 111 solved and onwards...

This is out on iOS now! Was not expecting that, although I did think it wasn’t resource intensive. Shame it won’t be cross save compatible with PS4. Would hate to have to restart it frankly.

Wow you spent a tenner on something you didn't even play long enough to realise it's nothing like the game you compared it to?

lol

I started this on Friday. A very tough, but really good game.

I've activated one laser and have made some progress in a few other areas, as well as exploring a fair bit of the island.

My sole gripe is that the puzzles can be very repetitive...
