Steam review snapshots
Definitely has a high and quite academic barrier for entry (you will need to know what a logic gate is first before…The first thing you notice about this game is the grandeur and mystery of its environment, and it doesn't ever let up…To finish the rest of Digital, only to come across floor 8 and discover it to be a giant mess of wires…Moving pieces around in Digital and Analog was a little annoying at the start, but I gradually got used to the quirks…Why it fits
Check it if you want adventure filtered by relaxing, puzzle, no combat.
