If you want something similar after you might check out The Witness
I liked the Witness better than Talos personally. It just hung together so beautifully and artistically.
Never heard of it. Added it to my wishlist, if it it gets cheap enough I'll grab it. Thanks!
If you end up enjoying the Witness I wholeheartedly recommend the parody of it, the Looker. It's the kind of parody that can only have been made by someone who really loved the original, because it has genuinely good and clever versions of the mechanics, and it's also free
The Looker is fantastic. I was particularly disappointed to learn that Blow took it as an insult, though.
I'm going to give the unpopular opinion that I didn't really enjoy it. I think I got over half way and the puzzles started to feel a bit too samey to me. I really wanted to like it.
Same. The puzzles were pretty average, and the writing was like something put together by someone who has just taken a first-year philosophy course and is now convinced that all of their ideas are Very Deep and completely original.
I enjoyed it until the timed puzzles. I did't enjoy knowing the solution but being forced to play again and again and again to time it right.
I had fun for about the first two worlds. After that the puzzles became to grindy and frustrating and I didn't have much fun with the puzzles with the recorders and the exploding enemies in particular. Also as someone who fears heights, the last section was pretty much unplayable.
That's fair. I admit it feels grindy with some puzzle types.
If you like puzzle games in general, I can recommend a few.
The entire The Room series. Good stuff some of my favorite puzzle games.
The House of Davinci series. A bit similar to The Room series. Really enjoyed all of them.
Qube series. Been a while since I played these so I don't remember much about them.
The Turing Test. Been a while for this one as well.
Quern. I struggled with this one, but still enjoyed it. I believe it's subtitled Undying Thoughts, but not 100 percent sure.
Monument Valley series. These are also on mobile if you prefer to play them on your phone. Very highly recommend, excellent games.
I would add Antichamber to that list.
