Bonfire Peaks by pinback 03/05/2023, 2:24pm PST
Somehow this didn't make it onto my list in 2021, which is absurd.

The new DLC was just released, and it's a wonderful, welcome expansion to the original game, which still has about a hundred puzzles I haven't solved yet.

I cannot say enough good things about this game, probably the last puzzle game you'll ever need. Certainly I will die before I've figured it all out, and that could be weeks from now.

The art and music are haunting, captivating, and the perfect salve for when you're staring at the screen yelling "this is clearly impossible" until the little spark happens and you figure it out. In a great puzzle game, this happens several times during a playthrough. In Bonfire Peaks, it happens during virtually every puzzle.

Brilliance. Art. Whatever. Good puzzles.

Do not play the DLC first.
