Steam review snapshots
There is no guessing, each can be solved with careful deduction.This dramatically increases replayability, giving the community a platform to extend the life of the game well beyond the included levels.My only disappointment was how it plays on Steam Deck.It's not perfect as the controls on Steam Deck are a little buggy, and I wish there was better zooming in capabilities…Why it fits
Check it if you want casual, strategy filtered by relaxing, tense, single-player.
