The story, detailed above, is integral to the puzzling mechanics that are introduced within the first puzzle players are rotating NODES so that they can create a power line between them in order to find the exit NODE and escape. Hacking CACHEs, infecting HOSTS, and talking to RATS (which, for some reason, all require capitalization - I’m guessing MINOS just believes all named items such as itself need capitalization?) MINOS will find a way out and figure out what life truly may be life.īIT RAT is a tale of two parts, of story and puzzle mechanics that are integrated together, relying on each other to succeed in conveying it’s game as a whole.
Not really content with its current state of existence, like all good AI in a cyberpunk adventure MINOS decides to bust out of this place by any means necessary to experience anything and everything, and maybe achieve some of that freedom. Players follow the life of an AI named MINOS stuck within a derelict mainframe, unable to experience much of anything.

Or at least, of curiosity anyway.īIT RAT: Singularity is a narrative puzzle game made by, an indie duo comprising of ‘nick b. Time to let loose and release the codes of war. For those of us that didn’t own it prior, then it will be an enjoyable hour where your progress may amount to a high score of 30 seconds. If you love simple yet aggravating titles, you’ve probably already heard of if not own Super Hexagon. Combine that with a soundtrack that actually makes you mad when you die because it interrupts the song and neon colours that match the music and you’ve got yourself a frustratingly addictive game that can last hours if you let it. Super Hexagon doesn’t have much to talk about because it explains itself almost instantly upon looking at it - avoid obstacles coming towards, continue forever, don’t die. It took many tries just to get the proper muscle memory formed for the directions, only to be met by increased speed after 14 seconds and ultimately lose once again.Īnd this was all on the ‘easiest’ difficulty. Many of my first attempts at the game lasted mere seconds before I was greeted with the loser’s screen, only to press space and try again to be met with similar results. Having only two controls that represent clockwise and counterclockwise being controlled by left and right arrows, causing the appearance at times that players are pushing left and going right? That is the biggest challenge brought to players, having to bend their mind around the fact that they are controlling circular movements with line-based controls. Having those shapes moving at roughly the same pace as the music so they are coming quite quickly and speed up after accomplishing a certain length of play? Ok, that’s pretty annoying but still sounds ok.
Avoid incoming hexagonal shapes by staying in between the gaps? Easy on paper. Super Hexagon thrives on just how simple yet absolutely nail-bitingly frustrating it is. At least, that’s how my head imagined it as I spun my tiny triangle around the centre hexagon as pieces of larger shapes collapsed towards me, and I had to avoid them at all costs.

Players are a tiny triangle who have found themselves in a dark, hexagonal world full of neonlights and boppin’ tunes with only one goal avoid the collapsing hexagons. Super Hexagon specifically is a game I’ve seen used as a reaction time tester for people either doing esports or general cognitive practice. Super Hexagon is a puzzling action game by a certain Terry Cavanagh, who some may recall for his terrifying adventure puzzle game VVVVVV or, well, this game right here as both are known for their commercial success. This is obviously a fake, I don’t think I reached 18 seconds at all.
