Lorelei and the Laser Eyes – Nintendo Switch 2 EditionGraphic Adventure / PuzzleB
tl;dr Lorelei and the Laser Eyes is a Graphic Adventure game with an extremely strong focus on its Puzzle gameplay, with some really excellent puzzle design that will thrill seasoned puzzle-solvers looking for something challenging and original, but that might cause more casual puzzlers to balk. Add to this an absolutely amazing visual presentation and less-than-amazing controls, and you have something of a mixed bag that some players will absolutely love while others will hate it. Still, I do think the positives outweigh the negatives here, and the game’s target audience will likely be truly delighted with this game.
Blue PrinceFirst-Person Puzzle / RoguelikeB-
tl;dr Blue Prince is a First-Person Puzzle game with Roguelike elements that has players exploring a mansion by spawning a selection of randomized rooms and trying not to block off their progress. It’s a clever idea, but the first-person perspective slows down the pacing and doesn’t seem necessary for most of the gameplay. fans of Puzzle games may enjoy this game, but it won’t be for everyone.
