Review

The Witness is a Mac OS puzzle game developed and published by Thekla studio, headed by Jonathan Blow. This is the second project, created after the famous puzzle Braid, which brought great success to the studio.

Gameplay

The game is a puzzle game with an open world to explore. The player has access to several sections with their own types of puzzles. Basically, you need to work with special locks - you need to fulfill certain conditions to open them. The simplest solution to the puzzle is to draw a line from start to finish.

Solving puzzles can take a special approach and mindfulness to the world. This is due to the fact that certain locks require certain actions in the world. There are 650 tasks in total, but there is also a special challenge, which, according to Jonathan Blow, is solved only by 1% of players.

The developers made a "dumb" game, without various dialogues, so the player will have to think about what the creators wanted to say. In the game world of The Witness, there are various sculptures: artists, workers, photographers, thinkers and other people. All this symbolizes something that a person playing this project might think about. Portable audio players were added to the game containing phrases of famous people: Einstein, Buddha and other great philosophers.

Studio head Jonathan Blow wanted players to enjoy solving puzzles out of their own interest, so almost no achievements were introduced. A more important reward was considered the plot, represented by audio recordings that the player finds as they explore the game location. Due to the different options for the order of listening to the recordings, a person can build and perceive history in his own way.

The development team decided to make "communication" between the player and the game itself: curious players could learn as much as possible from the game world. And when a new feature is introduced into the gameplay, the user must find out about it himself, which, according to Blow, pleases with a new discovery. This feature contrasts with The Legend Of Zelda, where the player is followed by a character explaining each step.

The Witness for Mac OS scored high on the Metacritic site. Critics gave an estimate of 88 points out of 100 possible. Many people have recommended Download the game because of its "dissimilarity" to the rest. Independently exploring every corner of the location and learning more and more about the world and the plot is a distinctive activity that anyone can do.
