The worst kind of puzzle in my mind is the "You get it or you don't" puzzle. And as much as Baba Is You, with it's incredibly clever premise of rewriting the rules of the puzzle to solve the puzzle, starts off by easing you into its clever clogs formula it very quickly moves into "leaps of logic" territory. For some people I'm sure this is exactly what they want. But sitting there in my big ass dunce cap it just puts me to sleep. I guess I identify more with the orange guy on the cover than Baba because yawn.

Great concept. Pretty fun then immediately too hard for me to really enjoy. I might just not be a puzzle guy.
