The tools are familiar — laser connectors, fans, teleporters, a recorder that clones your movement — but the rooms are arranged in an open city with optional puzzles, so you can leave a hard one and come back with a different mindset. The difficulty curve is gentler than the first game's, deliberately.
Twenty-five gigabytes for a puzzle game is unusual, and the art is doing the work: a post-human city built around golden statues and blue fog. The story is a long conversation about whether a constructed mind can consent, and it is not in a hurry.
