Puzzle Agent

I feel super efficient right now. In the past week, I have beaten "Resonance", "On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness: Episode 1", and moments ago, I beat "Puzzle Agent" from Telltale Games.

"Puzzle Agent" was interesting. I enjoyed it overall, but the ending is very sudden and open ended. There is a second game in this series, however, so I'm guessing it picks up where this one left off. Most of the game was enjoyable. The puzzles for the most part were fun. I liked the fact that I had to whip out pen and paper at times to figure out some of them. There were 3 or 4 of them that pissed me off though. There were either too many instructions or not enough instructions, that I felt no matter how long I looked at it, I wouldn't get it because the puzzle seemed flawed in my mind. Of course, it's quite possible that I just wasn't comprehending what I was supposed to be doing. I am very tired after all... In these instances, the Hints didn't seem to help much. The hints either told me stuff that I already had gathered or it essentially just threw up its hands and was like, here's the solution, dipshit. Begone.

It's nearly 2AM, so I'm not going to go on and on here. Puzzle Agent was fun enough that I'll bother with the sequel. That's all I could hope for for a game I bought on sale for 2 dollars. Well done.

Now sleep.
