Superliminal

"Perception is reality. In this mind-bending first-person puzzler, you escape a surreal dream world through solving impossible puzzles using the ambiguity of depth and perspective."

It's a fun first person puzzle game that has a surreal theme and game mechanic to it. Most of the puzzles and levels will make you really think. While there was a puzzle that really stumped me, I ended up having to look online to figure it out because I had been going at it for over 30 minutes and had tried numerous things to get it to work. But as a whole, I found the game puzzles to be worthwhile, to obtain the ending game. The storytelling and narration is similar to The Stanley Parable, which was an interesting game but too short for my liking. And unfortunately, so was Superliminal. I've clocked 3.4 hours in-game and at least 30 or so minutes of that was just trying to figure out one of the puzzles in a room. I honestly was hoping for the game to provide me with at least 4-5 hours of gameplay. So... a 7/10 is what I would end up giving it.

I also encountered a bug that broke a puzzle and my buddy and I wasted 2 hours being incredibly frustrated before we caved, looked it up, and realized we solved it immediately but the game was just taking a shit. That sole bug brought it down from 9/10 to 7/10 imho. Still very much enjoyed it, perfect example

I ended up breaking the game when I kept going through the hallway that makes you smaller. Eventually the game couldn't handle everything being so large lol

Did you get the secret ending where

spoilerYou find a pawn in the control room?

I did on my first playthrough, thought the game ended far too early before I realized I had gone down an alternate route.

It's still pretty short though

I believe so.

spoilerThough, this was a while ago. Back in May of 2023. But I do recall messing with a pawn near the end... but there were plenty of pawns throughout the game. Now you have me second guessing and it makes me want to play through the game again to make sure I didn't miss anything haha.
